Material from Swartkrans Members 1-3 were referred by Broom and Robinson (1949) to Telanthropus capensis with the mandible SK 15 as the holotype. Others have referred this material to a variety of Homo taxa including Homo habilis (Curnoe, 2006) and Homo erectus (Olson 1978; Anton, 2003). Campbell (1965) listed this taxon as available and valid.
