The two traits arose in the common ancestor of all hominins, however, they are not found in the nonhominin apes. Proper taxonomic groups are always defined by the traits that are shared among members of the group but not found in closely related species. The evolution of hominins involved several different changes that happened at different times. Only two of these features evolved early enough to apply to all the hominins.
