old Egyptian footprint, perhaps 2 million years old, perhaps of Homo

It would be incredibly interesting if that footprint in Egypt really did turn out to be two million years old and from the Homo genus, but it seems highly unlikely. The story says that the footprint has yet to be independently verified, and now matter how dogmatic i can be about humans being a hell of a lot older than they are conventionally accepted to be, Egypt can be a bit nationalist in its archaeology.
