Malapa Fossil Site, Cradle of Humankind
JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA - OCTOBER 29: Views of the Malapa range on the Malapa Nature Reserve in the Cradle of Humankind on October 29, 2010 in Johannesburg, South Africa. Australophithicus Sediba was found at the Malapa site 18 months ago and has gone one to become perhaps the most important early hominid find in history. Matthew Berger is credited with finding the first Homind fossil at the site, a find which led to a major new Hominid genus being discovered. A juvenile male is emerging largely intact as well as an adult female and it appears there are at least 4 other skeletons at the site. This is the largest find of its kind in history and may rewrite the books on how we view early relations to humankind. (Photo by Brent Stirton/Getty Images Reportage)
