Özet

In the summer of 2022, Lee Berger lost 50 pounds in order to wriggle though impossibly small openings in the Rising Star cave complex in South Africa—spaces where his team has been unearthing the remains of Homo naledi, a proto-human likely to have coexisted with Homo sapiens some 250,000 years ago. The lead researcher on the site, still Berger had never made his way into the dark, cramped, dangerous underground spaces where many of the naledi fossils had been found. Now he was ready to do so. Once inside the cave, Berger made shocking new discoveries that expand our understanding of this early hominid—discoveries that stand to alter our fundamental understanding of what makes us human. So what does it all mean? Join Berger on the adventure of a lifetime as he explores the Rising Star cave system and begins the complicated process of explaining these extraordinary finds—finds that force a rethinking of human evolution, and discoveries that Berger calls "the Rosetta stone of the human mind."

I expected to learn more of a possible early hominid which I had heard of but knew little about. But this book opened up a whole new pathway into so much more. Not just fossils but perhaps a previously unknown-culture with features thought to belong to only modern humans.
Enthralling and beautifully narrated.

Relates interesting new discoveries in South Africa of Homo naledi and their probable use of fire. The descriptions of caving exploits didn’t work for me.

I wanted to read this book after watching the documentary. Not sure it told me anything that wasn’t on the doc, but it was informative
