South African caves are full of gestures

The foolish research is literally – waist. And since most of the human evolution has happened all over Africa, because of the subcontinent, the geometry of the subcontinent is very important to connect early human history. There are also other stories of ancient environmental history, and how humans fit the lives of animals and plants around them.

The most famous Jiwashi record comes from only a handful of Africa’s sites in the Utah’s Natural History Museum, Chief Curator and Curator Tyler Fath said. This is one of the reasons that he is squeezing his way through newly discovered caves in South Africa.

In 2022, a specialist and a University of Utah Professor, Faith, in a report of the 1980s went out to find a series of caves mentioned. They were somewhere near the tip of South Africa in the Kingo Valley, a region that has a lime stone output, which is often a rock that is often stolen from caves. But when he arrived, there were many caves that he could not bother which was stated in the report. He returned several times in many years, with two dozen caves documents.

Faith said, “We have found all these caves, and they see really a very rich focus record.” “The fools are everywhere.”

The caves made as water have worked on the lime stone path for millions of years, eventually making tunnels and chambers in the rock. In the existence of the caves, the bones found their way. Sometimes, the reason for this was that a hunter had dinner in the cave. For the second time, the remains flowed with debris and water. And occasionally, if the cave or the roof falls, an unfortunate animal may have fallen. The layers of the sesame gradually develop on the bones, making them focused.

In June 2025, faith returned to the caves with staff of researchers, ready to dig. The work began with a trump in search of the entrances of the cave. Those entrances are contradictory to the unskilled eyes, which shelter through trees and plants. Faith said, but hiding their leaves is important that there is a cave nearby. Because the caves need water flowing, in addition to taking advantage of the extra moisture, their is a cluster of trees and shrubs around its opening.

The entrances of the cave are often so large that an adult’s trick is rotated through it. Once you enter, the lime stone provides a way to the maze of tunnels that may require stomach crawling through the stomach guano or the hard, steep shaft to visit. The cave wandered into the piles of Gono, waiting for his hooks to be drowned in a passerby. And without marking what direction they have come, the spleenkar can easily lose between the twist and the twist.

Faith said, “This is a repressive calm and dark.” “You start to hear things that are not there.”

Faith and his staff visited four caves on their journey, with two important goals: Find fools and find the things they found. There was a pleasure of Jovim, the roofs and walls were sticking to the passenger and was erupting out of the ground. To further discover the capacity of the caves, the team dug several test pills to see what was below the surface.

The ancient Wild Best, Zebra and unknown measles were included. A beard, was found to be out of the ceiling, as clearly, like a human being – but it has not yet been confirmed whether the teeth are really from a houen. Other caves also revealed more Humid -like goses.

One of the most animals found to the team was a mountain goat relative, which was probably similar to Ix. The animal was first discovered about 25 years ago, but the known foes were very incomplete to name it or to understand how it was connected to related species.

But now, thanks to the Kingo Valley caves, faith has a lot of fossils to properly do the species. The prize sample will come from a person listed in the cement seeds in the cave, which was hardly removed from the hammer and snatching in several days.

As far as the second goal of dating the Gwams is, the Kingo Valley Research Team will not be able to find any age unless they can take the cave -flowing stones to the date, like a sheet of mineral reserves that are flowing water. Meeting a layer of swords with sandwiches flow stones at the minimum and maximum age of trapped gauash among the researchers.

The Hanch of Faith is that the focus may have come from the period of Plystoson, but this is a wide window: about 2.5 25 million to 11,700 years ago. “I am skeptical that he is more than 100,000 years old,” he said.

Cave is a great news for South Africa’s fierce record. Most of the jovans exported to the southern parts of the country have been for the past 100,000 years, while the old Jovashim – which is the past several million years or more, mostly isolated near Johannesburg in the north.

Iman said that the Congo Valley Cave Project has the ability to reinforce the old record of Jovashim. And, because in the caves, it seems that it seems fossil, they can help fill the space about the early human evolution and the location of humans in the landscape.

For now, the cave’s belief and what his team discovered is just the beginning. The total number of underground time capsules in the area means decades of discoveries are ahead.

“There are caves of Zen in the area, which I think is waiting for someone to enter them and start working,” said Faith. “There is a need to work for a lifetime in this valley.”
