An international team of researchers, led by Professor Lee Berger from Wits University, will announce a discovery made in the remote depths of the Rising Star Cave in the Cradle of Humankind World Heritage Site near Johannesburg, South Africa.
The discovery is related to Homo naledi and “adds mystery as to how these many remains came to be in these remote, dark spaces of the Rising Star Cave system”, says Berger, who will lead the announcement on Thursday, 4 November at the Malapa Museum at the Cradle Boutique Hotel in the heart of the Cradle of Humankind.
The Centre for Exploration team will describe results published in two papers in the Open Access journal, PaleoAnthropology.
