Misleading. The main heading says: 1 year ago. This is from 2017-seven years old.

we are geneticaly modified from time to time by aliens. maybe Naledi excavated this cave and they had oil lamps

this is better than Netflix, more educational. I think some sort of animals (possible snake like) had hurt those beings and dragged them into the cave remote area to store food..it's just that simple?? Some of them may not die when they hunt and store them there..

the evidence of curiosity, finding use, and possibly protection. mammals have lived underground before

I bet Homo Naledi was not the first of the homo family to have used the Dineledi cave system. If they were to dig deeper into the topsoil I’m sure they could be in for a big surprise.

We came from being created. The question is how we got created. Since no physical thing can ever make or direct itself, the cause cannot be physical. That is the science.

oh that's what went wrong, nat geo was there. well, I guess I have some angst with the one nat geo heroin addict production dude, going to the tribes with a load of crap, but like he's some self proclaimed authority. it's not funny.

how long did it take to get the H. on Neanderthalensis ? but Naledi gets the H. almost as if by default ? ...I would say H ? Naledi ...I don't think we are there yet with this. the big picture is strewn with just so many failed attempts at bipedal evolution, as an extremely messy littering from the trees .... Sima de los Huesos is H ? antesessor, likely an african overshoot Gibraltar crosser....same complete mess as Naledi, but dramatically separated in time................where H.Neanderthalensis -- > *Did What Makes Sense* < --- Under Population Overshoot Conditions, ( had fewer off spring ) I would put the H on Neanderthalensis, and more tend to lump Naledi in with Antecessor. everyone alive today has learned to overshoot, with the overshoots, to survive the overshoots. . so don't stick your head in the sand when I say this --> that's not going to work this time. I mean could you imagine sub-saharans on a space station? ....they would be knowing on each other's bones as the life support systems failed.....they breed faster than the food grows, and think it should be ok that they don't cooperate with census work <---- That Is NOT " ok". in fact, the anthropological definition of cannibal is synonymous with sub-saharan genetics on small islands.....bad news, our planet is like an island. but the failure of all humanity has always been approaching them with reasoning, because that's just handing them everything they need to know to continue converting the entire planet's biomass into them, without anyone finding out about it until the next time. I submit the hypothesis that the Dineledi Chamber was a repository of cannibal scraps.

You should have more views most important that I have tried to keep up as this is what U Tube and internet was to bring education to everyone. 😊

I wonder why the explorers didn't widen the tunnel into the cave so that more people could get in?

I was just wondering if the photograph of the vice president of South Africa was taken before or after chants or songs calling for the death of white farmers?

U dont know hell until u pissoff GOD

Almost Human Is and Will NEVER Be Genuine Homo sapien . Period.

Neanderthals and Denisovans were human with mere modifications to their gene expression without evolution's evolving of any DNA mutations. They were 99.84% identical to us as we are 99.90% identical to each other. Subtract the thousands since we co-existed, then we would have been 99.90% to each other back then. This means there are no people on earth sharing '4% to 6%' of their DNA! If my cousins shared 4% to 6% of their DNA with your cousins then how can they be 99.90% identical, as all humans are, at the same time? No. To be truthfully informative, it is a sharing of GENE EXPRESSIONS MODIFICATIONS, not DNA. The DNA does not alter with new/old gene expression. The gene expression are 4% to 6% similar with the Neanderthals and Denisovans. These epigenetics coming from the epigenome is a SECOND INFORMATION CODE RUNNING OVERTOP THE DNA. It works like a software program! This all has a signature of intelligent design...not Godless-spinned evolution. There is no pertinence in evolution here. It's all smoke and mirrors. It's all gaslighting. We are an intelligent design, not a random design by evolution and natural selection. Evidence? Easy! ALL life has an inbuilt epigenome that takes cues from the environment for all of the classic adaptations we see...such as the Darwin Finch with their different beak shapes. Or cinclid and stickleback fish. Much, not all, of antibiotic resistance. High altitude breathing. Cancer becoming resistant to treatments are caused largely by its epigenome making modifications of its genes. The actions of the epigenome is called epigenetics. These are post-2014 materially founded facts. Evolution is NOT happening. The intelligent designer I mentioned? Jesus Christ beyond doubt.He gives much more than the fabled evolutionary theory. Jesus offers eternal forever life if you call upon his name and believe he will do it for you. It's 100% grace by faith, no merit on your part...present or future...is needed. It is FREE gift because he sacrificed himself on the cross to take on YOUR sin onto his body and gives YOU his 100% perfection in exchange. You cannot go to hell even if try when you receive this free gift. So much better than the theory of evolution offers!

Mumbo Jumbo

Good job

A brilliant and underrated lecture.

I don't believe Naledi shuld be classifed as 'Homo". I elieve they were Australopithecines. Other than similar teeth and being bipedal, what makes them a member of our genus?

Need to hurry up found the way kill cancer stem cells cure, people dying.

I never tire of hearing a presentation on this amazing discovery and it will keep giving for years and years.

RNA world is cringe

7 (seven) Considerations for two simple questions. Whereas (1) THAT, in a rare event, several fossils were found gathered in the same place; (2) THAT, these fossils are of individuals with ages ranging from months (infant) to mature age; (3) THAT these individuals appear to have died at the same time; (4) THAT there are no traces of food or hunting utensils/tools - nor of routine use of fire, although the place is very dark; (5) THAT the site is difficult to access even for small individuals, being difficult to go down to the lower chambers of the cave; (6) that exit from the site must be via the entry point; (7) that transporting adult corpses through the narrow labyrinth would be especially trying. I ASK: Wouldn't these individuals belong to a group (complete family, with adults, young people and children) that, in a hurry, sought refuge in the depths of the cave when fleeing from a pursuer who, in turn, had the means to understand the situation and set up guard for days or weeks, until it kills the refugees with thirst and hunger? Could the stalker be sapiens?

Why would they crawl into the cave? In darkness? Something doesn’t add up. I think a geologist needs to study and document the geological history of the cave and surrounding area before the anthropologists, palaeontologists and archaeologists come up with their theories.

Great work. Long Live Genomic revolution! Long Live George Church and He Jiankui!

Knowing that our ancestors at some point came out of the trees by necessity and became more and more upright, clearly naledi used their archaic arm and shoulder anatomy to climb easily in these caves. Then looking at the dichotomy of those features, juxtaposing their archaic with their more modern human characteristics, clearly there was interbreeding with early more modern humans that led to the skull, leg, foot and other traits being chosen for adaptivity. So imho the naledi are an excellent example of what an in-between species would be like, which is special since we have little direct sample to examine besides them. Erectus and habilus are obviously key in our development, but naledi gives us an idea what the 'blank areas' in the search thus far might have been like. In that respect the combo of both archaic and more modern human features are the ideal representation we needed to get a clearer picture. And with such abundant samples across age and gender, wow... Regardless of their relationship to us, we can see a species that exemplifies how evolution does its thing.

I have another question. Have you heard of Michael Cremo? He is a doctor that scoured all of the old academic papers and scientific journals to get a better understanding of where we come from. He found some pretty interesting things in the museum's oopart junk drawer. At 39:12 you say that is the only evidence we have of human ancestors prior to a million years ago? Well, merry Christmas, here is a list of finds that you didnt know about, and Dr Cremo talking about them.ua-cam.com/video/cazjCCi3Kpk/v-deo.html Please go back and DNA test these. Youre not supposed to ignore evidence as a scientist, even if it doesnt fit the story that youre taught to tell.

Why dont they just did the hole bigger?

It’s nice to hear a real scientist speak of “female” team members who are naturally smaller than men. I believe this scientist because he isn’t stuck on woke jargon.

Maybe it was a method of concealing the deceased from predators before inhumation was thought of. Perhaps their relatives dragged them in and then blocked the entrance.

Just think what we could accomplish scientifically if the funding we put towards war was put forth towards scientific discovery.

Fine, but forget about messing with DNA. It's a foolish thing

The future is female, come on guy. Balding pudgy ginger creeper.

Amazing. And John Hawks is an incredibly good communicator 👍🏾

Taking 30 minutes to accomplish what Usain Bolt can do in 9 seconds is basically what living with chronic fatigue is like...

I can think of a more simple way for them to get there than "They put them there", which implies a high level of cognition, wouldn't they have had some form of tools on them by the way, if they were that smart? I think It's a "funnel trap". They were living in and around the cave, something in the cave was a source of food or shelter, etc. and once in a while they would get lost and end up going in the wrong direction until they gave up and died. Rather than assuming high intelligence in an animal with that small of a brain, it makes more sense to assume they were trapped by an oddly shaped cave. At best this might imply curiosity. Furthermore, the odd geography of the cave assured they would get so far down that they weren't prey to anything and this helped preserve them as well. I can think of one other possibility. They where put there by Humans or forced to flee down into the cave by humans who lit fires forcing them to flee and die. Or they were fleeing from forest fires without humans involved at all. But if the date comes back as contemporary to humans then it still makes more sense that if it was ritualistic, that it was humans who put them there. Those are two possibilities right off the top of my head that make more sense than the assumption that they were putting their dead way back in there.

It is also reasonable to assume, that some members, of this species, grew too large to enter the cave system. Just like today, with modern humans. Shaq, just aint going in.

Excellent lecture. I would suggest that the larger members of this population would not be represented here, due the size of the cave. The largest ones, if there were, would not fit into the tunnels.

Why don't they just widen the opening a fraction with a portable rock saw? Or a chisel and hammer?

Early on I was curious about the body size and the ability of the homo naledi people to fit inside the deeper chambers of the Rising Star Cave complex, which you did cover. Thank you for that. I'm also curious about the possible reasons these people had to ventured so far into the cave, especially considering the difficulty involved. Perhaps it was to escape larger predators that couldn't fit that far into the cave? Perhaps it was a safe place to keep scavengers away from the deceased? Apparently, you did not find evidence of soot on the cave ceilings, so how did they navigate in complete darkness and what did they do once inside? Did you find evidence of food consumption (smaller bones, seed pods, etc.)? It's possible they knew to consume bones for the calcium. Maybe we need a new branch of science called paleopsychology (my neologism) to address some of these issues? Safe to say, some of them, at the least, were not claustrophobic. Excellent presentation thank you.

He can do without the story of the two cavers, the narrow passages, etc. This has been retold elebenty billion times already.

chimps are our closest living relatives.. they are the true prehumans.. therefore homo sapiens and neandrathals are pre chimps.. we are homo sapien sapiens not homo sapiens

neandrathals and homo sapiens are not humans.. they are hominins. . they went extinct 50,000 years before us.. calling them prehumans is an attempt to cause idiots to believe we are related.. we are homo sapien sapiens.. modern humans are less than 15,000 years old.. the oldest human dna is found in UK.. case closed

This is marrying together the mutations theory/ stochastic theory with the stem cell hypothesis. If that was the case, then do stem cells develop mutations to give them embryonic stem cell markers on them and embryonic stem cell capabilities? Wow.

55:30 . I voted for Trump. Twice. You did however validate,again,my belief that leftism has perverted the sciences.Also there is no "THE" science but in political circles.I will continue to have an interest in anthropology and the sciences despite the current political snobbery.

How thrilling. From the brave cavers who took extreme risks to discover a miraculous trove of hominin fossils to the equally brave female paleoanthropologists who excavated and helped explain them...a new member of our genus! There is much we may never know about our distant lineage...but we know measurably more now!

Absolutely fascinating and very exciting

Really important research which uses biological discoveries to respond to one of life's burning questions. Dr. Kenyon is super.

Anything H.naledi, John Hawks, and Lee Berger, is a recipe for an amazing adventure.
