Abstract

Researchers led by palaeoanthropologist Lee Berger made controversial claims about an extinct human species called Homo naledi, stating that they buried their dead and decorated cave walls in South Africa over 240,000 years ago. However, many scientists, including the authors of this article, are not convinced by the evidence presented. The authors argue that the routine use of modern scientific techniques, such as micromorphology, can provide more supporting data and help avoid future controversies in human evolution research. They emphasize the importance of clear communication and careful presentation of findings to maintain public confidence in scientific research. [Extracted from the article]

Abstract

Classic depictions of human evolutionary ecology cast Homo as predator and other hominins, including Paranthropus robustus, as prey. Such hypotheses rest on a small number of fossils that exhibit evidence of carnivore predation, including the iconic SK 54 cranium from Swartkrans in South Africa. Here we demonstrate that the SK 54 cranium shares its closest affinities with H. erectus sensu lato rather than P. robustus. Demonstrating that Homo was prey for leopards at Swartkrans weakens the historically significant hypothesis that Homo was better able to avoid predation because of being behaviourally and technologically advanced compared to Paranthropus. Subsequent ideas about hominin palaeobiology derived from this hypothesis warrant reconsideration. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
