PDF-(READ)-Ancient Bones: Unearthing the Astonishing New Story of How We Became Human

A thrilling new account of human origins as told by the paleontologist who led the most groundbreaking dig in recent historySomewhere west of Munich Madelaine Böhme and her colleagues dig for clues to the origins of humankind What they discover is beyond anything they imagined the fossilized bones of Danuvius guggenmosi ignite a global media frenzy This ancient ancestor defies our knowledge of human historyhis nearly twelvemillionyearold bones were not located in Africathe socalled birthplace of humanitybut in Europe and his features suggest we evolved much differently than scientists once believedIn prose that reads like a gripping detective novel Ancient Bones interweaves the story of the dig that changed everything with the fascinating answer to a previously undecided and now pressing question How exactly did we become human Placing Böhmes discovery alongside former theories of human evolution the authors show how this remarkable find and others in Eurasia are forcing us to rethink the story weve been told about how we came to be a story that has been our guiding narrativeuntil now.

This first-person narrative about an archaeological discovery is rewriting the story of human evolution. A story of defiance and determination by a controversial scientist, this is Lee Berger\'s own take on finding Homo naledi, an all-new species on the human family tree and one of the greatest discoveries of the 21st century.In 2013, Berger, a National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence, caught wind of a cache of bones in a hard-to-reach underground cave in South Africa. He put out a call around the world for petite collaborators--men and women small and adventurous enough to be able to squeeze through 8-inch tunnels to reach a sunless cave 40 feet underground. With this team of underground astronauts, Berger made the discovery of a lifetime: hundreds of prehistoric bones, including entire skeletons of at least 15 individuals, all perhaps two million years old. Their features combined those of known prehominids like Lucy, the famous Australopithecus, with those more human than anything ever before seen in prehistoric remains. Berger\'s team had discovered an all new species, and they called it Homo naledi.The cave quickly proved to be the richest primitive hominid site ever discovered, full of implications that shake the very foundation of how we define what makes us human. Did this species come before, during, or after the emergence of Homo sapiens on our evolutionary tree? How did the cave come to contain nothing but the remains of these individuals? Did they bury their dead? If so, they must have had a level of self-knowledge, including an awareness of death. And yet those are the very characteristics used to define what makes us human. Did an equally advanced species inhabit Earth with us, or before us? Berger does not hesitate to address all these questions.Berger is a charming and controversial figure, and some colleagues question his interpretation of this and other finds. But in these pages, this charismatic and visionary paleontologist counters their arguments and tells his personal story: a rich and readable narrative about science, exploration, and what it means to be human.
