Sorry Ted, but absolutely no evidence of that. This is what is called "The Missing Link". Maybe you could help here?...

If you look into the matter just a little, you will find that analysis of upright vs quad locomotion is a very fundamental part of characterising hominid fossils. If you want to learn something read this:

talkorigins.org

You will find references to mode of walking very common. Nice little graph at the end noting all the species modes of locomotion.

The evidence that early man walked on all fours before going upright?

Sorry Ted, but absolutely no evidence of that. This is what is called "The Missing Link". Maybe you could help here?...

I read some where that they found the skeleton of a man who was both bipedal and walked on all fours. As for the missing link, scientists think they found him in Africa:
