This is an old version of Professor Lee Berger's lecture on the Australopithecus prometheus fossils of Makapansgat. For the new version, please go here: • Rise of Prometheus .
In the second episode of Professor Lee Berger’s series of lectures on human origin, he delves into his favourite hominid-bearing site, Makapansgat, to demonstrate the fossils of Australopithecus prometheus. Named after the Greek hero, Prometheus, who stole fire from the gods, this fossil inspired not only the opening scene of Stanley Kubric’s cult-classic, 2001 Space Odyssey, but it also inspired a whole new science called Taphonomy – the science of the grave. #Witsresearch #humanorigins #palaeolectures.
