SYNOPSIS
A voyage through time to find our origins, following in the footsteps of a team of scientists in the heart of the Namibian Bush! The goal of the Human Origins in Namibia mission is to have Namibia recognized as the "Cradle of Humankind," as is South Africa. To do this, new fossiles must be found. But where to look? Where they would have been protected from predators and the ravages of time. That is, in caves that were opened 3 or 4 million years ago that are now closed. This is the work we are following and, despite disproportion in the land to clear and several million year old rock, our team will find ITS cave.
