Cradle of Human Kind, South Africa

Did you know that scientists believe humans evolved from a common ancestor that came out of Africa?  In fact, they believe that humans came out of South Africa. Ms. Hoffman got to visit a place called the Cradle of Human Kind. This is a place near Johannesberg, South Africa where many of the oldest hominid fossils have been found. That means they found of really really old human like creatures. They weren't exactly like humans, but they were pretty close!


Read the quote on the stone. What do you think that means?
