Embedded Human Fossil - Sterkfontein Caves - The Cradle of Humankind World Heritage Site
The two white 'donut' circles on each side of the hand (shadow) are end on (cross section) views of fossilized femurs of a primitive australopithecine. Further excavation could bring down the cave.
The guide, Lindiwe, provided an excellent underground tour of excavations of 2.3 million year old human ancestors
