Beneath the 2,6 billion- year old dolomitic hills found in the Cradle of Humankind, lies a series of extensive underground caverns. These geological time capsules have preserved the fossil remnants of tens of thousands of extinct animals, as well as the bones and cultural remains of our own ancestors, the hominids. Included in the cradle of human kind is the world-famous Sterkfontein Cave, which has become synonymous with the South African search for human origins.
