An international team of archaeologists has found evidence from over 100,000 years ago of early human innovation in a rock shelter in the Kalahari.
Archaeological deposits found at a new archaeological site in the Northern Cape, Ga-Mohana Hill, suggest that early humans were innovative and resourceful even outside of coastal environments.
UCT researchers form part of the international team that has found evidence for complex symbolic behaviours in the Kalahari 105,000 years ago.
The findings of the research have been published in Nature, a leading multidisciplinary science journal.
