Homo naledi is an extinct species of archaic human discovered in 2013 in the Rising Star Cave system, Gauteng province, South Africa (See Cradle of Humankind), dating to the Middle Pleistocene 335,000–236,000 years ago. The initial discovery comprises 1,550 specimens of bone, representing 737 different skeletal elements, and at least 15 different individuals. Despite this exceptionally high number of specimens, their classification with other Homo species remains unclear.

H. naledi anatomy indicates that, though they were capable of long-distance travel with a humanlike stride and gait, they were more arboreal than other Homo, better adapted to climbing and suspensory behaviour in trees than endurance running. Tooth anatomy suggests consumption of gritty foods covered in particulates such as dust or dirt. Though they have not been associated with stone tools or any indication of material culture, they appear to have been dextrous enough to produce and handle tools, and therefore may have manufactured Early or Middle Stone Age industries since no other human species in the vicinity at that time has been discovered. It has also been controversially postulated that these individuals were given funerary rites, and were carried into and placed in the chamber.

In 2015, archaeologist Paul Dirks, Berger, and colleagues concluded that the bodies had to have been deliberately carried and placed into the chamber by people because they appear to have been intact when they were first deposited in the chamber. There is no evidence of trauma from being dropped into the chamber nor of predation, and there is exceptional preservation. The chamber is inaccessible to large predators, appears to be an isolated system, and has never been flooded. That is, natural forces were not at play.[4]

There is no hidden shaft through which people could have accidentally fallen in, and there is no evidence of some catastrophe which killed all the individuals inside the chamber. They said it is possible that the bodies were dropped down a chute and fell slowly due to irregularity and narrowness of the path down, or a soft mud cushion to land on. In whatever scenario, the morticians would have required artificial light to navigate the cave. The site was used repeatedly for burials as the bodies were not all deposited at the same time.[4]

In 2016, palaeoanthropologist Aurore Val countered that such preservation may have been due to mummification rather than careful burial, and the absence of long bone heads is reminiscent of predation. She believes that discounting natural forces such as flooding for depositing the bodies is unjustified. She identified evidence of damage done by beetles, beetle larvae, and snails, which facilitate decomposition. The chamber does not present ideal conditions for snails, nor does it contain snail shells, which would indicate decomposition initiated before deposition in the chamber.[33]

In 2017, Dirks, Berger, and colleagues reaffirmed that there is no evidence of water flow into the cave, and that it is more likely that the bodies were deliberately deposited into the chamber. They said it is possible that they were deposited by contemporary Homo, such as the ancestors of modern humans, rather than other H. naledi, but that the cultural behaviour of funerary practises is not impossible for H. naledi. They proposed that placement in the chamber may have been done to remove decaying bodies from a settlement, prevent scavengers, or as a consequence of social bonding and grief.[10]

In 2018, anthropologist Charles Egeland and colleagues echoed Val's sentiments, and stated that there is insufficient evidence to conclude that a hominid species had developed a concept of the afterlife so early in time. They said that the preservation of the Dinaledi individuals is similar to those of baboon carcasses which accumulate in caves, either by natural death of cave-dwelling baboons, or by a leopard dragging in carcasses.[34]

i feel like PROBABLY they just like, fell in (after death?) or something and werent buried. but its very strange

Under the Rising Star-BioAnth Fiction

For clarification, I wrote this a month or two before I heard that the H. Naledi papers about fire use and art and burial of the dead were relatively unsubstantiated as they are now. However, I consider this work one of my better writing things, and it got me into a college honors program. So, I don't think this image of H. Naledi behavior/society is necessarily accurate to how they actually were, but I do think that they were freaky little ape guys that are pretty much the only thing in a deep cave, combined with the dozens of bodies with fascinatingly little variation. So, maybe they weren't using fire or making art, but they are really cool to think about. This is, as I have said, a fictional work of fiction, and I'm not a biological anthropologist, I'm just a student. Starts here:

-Common vernacular English translation of rock wall carvings found in the Dinaledi chamber of the Rising Star cave system, Cradle of Humankind, South Africa, Gauteng (Gau-tungh) Province. Recovered by Berger et al and translated by Harvard Department of Linguistics.

Someday, we will all be gone soon. I hear it. I hear it in the grind of the Stones and the whistles of the great trees and the roars of the lions and the yowls of the dogs in the forest. I hear it in the Stone. The soul of the wild and the trees and the jumping flames coos in my ear and I listen. We will all be gone soon. When I walk through the caves, far past where the light of the sky is sucked out and only the black dark of the selfish and eternal night remains, is when I can truly hear the Stone sing. The Stone roars through my head and bellows to my ears and sings me the tales of the Long Ago and the To Be. The Stone tells me of Those Who Are Others, the ones who walk with us now and the ones whose bones were laid to rest in the ages of the Long Ago. Their ancient remains and their killing-things left to gather debris and dirt. But not all of Those Who Are Others were asunder ages ago. The Stone sings us that they are our brothers and sisters, and so they are such. The Stone sings us that our brothers live in lands far away, with stone to themselves as well.

The Stone does not need to sing us of the ones that live alongside us. We name them Those who Are Others. They name us Vermin. In all specificity, I have never been certain why. They are like us, but not. They are taller, with strange heads and lanky bodies. The Those Who Are Others act like us, but they do not think like us. They are ethereal, traveling in packs across the plains and forests and slaying the beasts of the land and the sea with their spears and blades. They are not like us. But they are of the Stone. And that is all that is important. The Stone sings us of them often, more often than any of our other, far-off kin, the Ones of the Calm Seas and the Ones of the Selfish Dark. The last of which seem to be so deep that the Stone can sing little of them, never able to find the right melodies and tones to play on the strata of the caves, warm with the heat and light of the licking flames of That Which Burns. So I sit by my hearth, by the darkest and most untouched places, where we set down the bones and the still-warm husks of our own, in chambers set in the untold times of the Long Ago, chambers used by we since our kind were first spat upon the world.

In the Not so Long ago, many others would walk with me, when I was small and not as steady on my feet, and so I was carried or my hand was held along the cool floors. Now, it is only me. When the Stone sings us, I am the only of our kind that sings back. I worry what that means for us. We are a people who never truly formed even a name for ourselves. We know not what the Those Who Are Others name us to themselves, for our tongues long since split and as the Stone sings me and me only, never were the same at all. But they do speak of us. They whisper on the edges of the flames at meetings and through the twisting halls of the Stone. Its tones have changed. Its melodies are no longer lilting, dancing with the shadows and making the shining stones ring forth with cacophonous noise. No, its tones have changed far too much. The Stone sings no longer of us, of our past and our glory and our nameless people. It sings of me. It sings of we will all be gone soon. And the others will believe me not. They see only a crazed child who whispers to rocks and the walls of caves. They see not that there is a threat. They understand not that there could be one. They see the Those who Are Others strike their blades from the Stone in mass quantities and gather in more and more packs and say that is what they always do. But it is not. It never has been. If we will all be gone soon, it will be because of them. Not me. I know not why I defend myself so passionately against the accusations of unfeeling rocks, but it is perhaps the only thing I can do to keep myself calm.

And the limits of that will are constantly tested. My own speak of me in hushed tones, poisoned by the inability to see. They are frightened. Not of what I do or what I am, no. They fear what I act for. They fear the Stone as it sings through me. They are foolish. But not so foolish that I will abandon them and sink forever into the selfish blackness of the caves, where the Stone sings so bold and loud that I cannot hear the clack of my footsteps on the cool floor. No, I will not abandon them. I will but warn them. They do not deserve to be left alone, cut off and deafened to the immense voice of the Stone. I spend long times with it, deep in the caves, unaware of the shiftings of the day and night for my hearth does not bother with such cycles. I rarely see the outside now, the golden plains and the deep green of the forest. I rarely see my own now, meeting with my people only when they demand I come out or when they bring me food for my eating and plants for my hearth. They do it still, mattering not how much they fear me and my craft. How strange of them. They must want to leave me to starve as I sit and listen to the endless songs put forth from the blackness by the Stone. I hear them whisper of it, grumblings as they trip over outcroppings and shifts in the rock, feet unused to the caves, stumbling with only the flames between them and the all-encompassing dark. I look forward to these visits, if they are only to keep me alive and tell me of the outside and the Those Who Are Others. They are getting bolder, they tell me. They slip into our lands and our caves in the nights and take our stones and our food and occasionally a child or two. This should have been my most pressing concern, but at the time it barely crossed my mind as a happening. I was too full of the songs and the Stone. They swept through my head, and I sat as the Stone sung to me and its songs carried through the halls of rock and spilled into the world and filled my ears with music. I hear it even as I carve the words of my account into the walls of the Stone and I know that this transgression will be forgiven in the end. I hear the Stone sing of the To Be, of ages and ages forward, of incomprehensible times and incomprehensible things. The Stone sings me of our brothers and sisters, of ages far into the To Be where Those Who Are Others will rediscover our bones, weathered and broken by time and the now-silent Stone. They will not hear its songs, its bellows and its screams and its elations. They will pull us from the rock and name us in their tongue and place us in their family and reconstruct who we were and who we are. We will be as unimaginable to them as they and the To Be are to me. I do not know what I think, but I think that it will be a kindness of them. But that has not yet come. For now, I am with the Stone and with my people, and we will all be gone soon.

Who Will Be in South Africa’s Next Government?

It’s official: The African National Congress (ANC) party will need to share power for the first time since apartheid ended in 1994 after losing its parliamentary majority in South Africa’s May 29 national election. The historic loss was in part due to former President Jacob Zuma’s 6-month-old uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) party eating into ANC support. The ANC received 40.2 percent of votes, down more than 17 percentage points compared with the 57.5 percent it secured in the last national election in 2019. It now holds just 159 seats out of 400 in the National Assembly.

The center-right Democratic Alliance (DA) trailed in second place with 21.8 percent of votes (87 seats). Zuma’s MK gained 14.6 percent of votes (58 seats), becoming the third-biggest party in the National Assembly.

In Zuma’s home province of KwaZulu-Natal, the former president rejected the final tally, claiming vote-rigging, and threatened violence if South Africa’s Electoral Commission declared the results on Sunday as planned. “People would be provoked,” he said, referring to the violent riots that gripped the nation when he was sent to jail in July 2021. “Do not start trouble when there is no trouble.” MK won 45.3 percent of votes in KwaZulu-Natal—just under the 50 percent needed to govern the province outright.

Zuma’s earlier conviction means he is barred from taking a seat in the National Assembly, but he is still able to pull the strings from behind the scenes. “Love him or hate him, Zuma is the most consequential South African politician of his generation,” Sisonke Msimang wrote in Foreign Policy prior to the election. Another ANC splinter group, the radical left-wing Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), dropped to fourth place, with a vote share of 9.5 percent (39 seats).

“We suffered heavily, but we are not out,” ANC Secretary-General Fikile Mbalula said at a press conference on Sunday. “We are talking to everybody. There’s nobody we are not going to talk to.” The ANC now needs to form a coalition with one or more opposition parties and began talks on Monday.

The first option that’s popular with investors is a partnership with the pro-business DA. But factions of the ANC are ideologically opposed to the free market agenda promised by the DA. There’s a high potential for political infighting that could weaken any ability to govern cohesively. The DA does not support racial quotas in the workplace—introduced by the ANC—or the new government-funded national health insurance system.

The DA also opposes setting a minimum wage, which it says contributes to unemployment; meanwhile, the ANC believes a minimum wage shelters low-skilled Black workers from extreme poverty.

EFF leader Julius Malema warned the ANC against forming a coalition that would “reinforce white supremacy” and make it a “puppet of a white imperialist agenda”—referring to the DA, which is perceived as serving the interests of minority white South Africans. But the DA has drawn support from Black and mixed-race voters and is seen by most South Africans as governing the best-run province—the Western Cape and its capital, Cape Town.

In turn, DA leader John Steenhuisen has been open to an ANC partnership from the outset knowing that the party was unlikely to reach more than 22 percent of votes. He called an ANC-MK-EFF coalition a “doomsday” scenario.

An alternative to appease dissenting ANC members would be a coalition with the ANC, DA, and Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP), which draws its support mainly from ethnic Zulus in KwaZulu-Natal. This would give the three parties 66 percent of the national vote and a commanding majority in South Africa’s most populous province, Gauteng.

A coalition between the ANC and the EFF would intensify great-power competition in the region by further antagonizing the United States. The EFF has suggested nationalizing key institutions and redistributing minority white-owned land without compensation. The two parties currently run the Johannesburg city council together but have had violent clashes running Ekurhuleni, a municipality east of Johannesburg.

The EFF and MK advocate similar economic policies, but an alliance between MK and the ANC is at the moment unlikely due to the souring of relations between Zuma and ANC members. Zuma’s party has demanded that President Cyril Ramaphosa step down before any coalition talks, which ANC members have ruled out.

Coalitions have rarely worked in South Africa. Coalition governments that have previously governed major cities such as Johannesburg and Durban have been unsuccessful, as party rivalries often hampered the delivery of basic services. On a national level, this could affect the ability to swiftly introduce new policies and pass budgets to deal with the country’s immediate problems on the economy, energy, and jobs.

“The lack of ideological cohesion among parties has led to the rise of coalition politics in South Africa,” Ebrahim Fakir wrote in Foreign Policy just before the election. “The result is a governmental environment where oversight and accountability are minimal—and where policy implementation is erratic.”

Leaked ANC documents seen by South Africa’s Daily Maverick suggest the party may opt for a minority government with a more stable supply and confidence agreement struck with the DA and IFP, similar to the parliamentary system currently in place in Canada. The arrangement would mean that the parties agree to back the ANC on key policy votes in exchange for concessions on specific policies.

Regardless, experts suggest Ramaphosa’s time in office could be limited. No ANC president has ever served a full second term. Nelson Mandela chose not to run for a second term, while his successors Thabo Mbeki and Zuma were forced to step down as party leader before their final terms ended. Having presided over such a historic defeat for the ANC, pressure may increase on Ramaphosa to step down before his mandate ends.

Rachel Savage at The Guardian:

Final results from Wednesday’s seismic South Africa elections have confirmed that the African National Congress (ANC) party has lost its majority for the first time in 30 years of full democracy, firing the starting gun on unprecedented coalition talks. The ANC, which led the fight to free South Africa from apartheid, won just 159 seats in the 400-member national assembly on a vote share of just over 40%. High unemployment, power cuts, violent crime and crumbling infrastructure have contributed to a haemorrhaging of support for the former liberation movement. The pro-business Democratic Alliance (DA) won 87 seats, uMkhonto weSizwe (MK) – a new party led by President Cyril Ramaphosa’s bitter rival, the former president Jacob Zuma – took 58, and the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF), a Marxist-Leninist party led by the ousted ANC youth leader Julius Malema, took 39.

The ANC also lost its majority in three provinces: Northern Cape; Gauteng, which is home to the commercial centre Johannesburg and the capital, Pretoria; and KwaZulu-Natal, where MK was the largest party. “What this election has made plain is that the people of South Africa expect their leaders to work together to meet their needs,” Ramaphosa told an audience of politicians, diplomats and civil society leaders after the official results announcement, as thunder rumbled outside. “They expect the parties for which they have voted to find common ground, to overcome their differences, to act and work together for the good of everyone.” Ramaphosa also joked, to laughter from the crowd, that he wished it was true when the electoral commission chair accidentally said that he was announcing the 2029 election results. The president faces questions about his future, though, as the ANC turns to the task of coalition building. Meanwhile, a spokesperson for Zuma’s MK party said they had boycotted the election results event.

Zuma had warned before the results announcement that it should not go ahead, saying “people would be provoked”, raising the spectre of the deadly riots that broke out when he was sent to prison in 2021. The position of Ramaphosa was not on the table during the coalition talks that will now take place, the general secretary of the ANC said before the final results were announced. ANC secretary-general Fikile Mbalula told a press conference at the election results centre: “If you come to us with a demand that Ramaphosa must step down as the president, that is not going to happen … It’s a no-go area. You come to us with that demand, forget it.” MK leaders have said they will not work with the ANC while it is led by Ramaphosa, who Zuma is hell-bent on exacting revenge against. Zuma was president from 2009 to 2018 and was forced to resign by the ANC amid corruption allegations, which he denies.

[...] A tie-up with the DA could be favoured by the more business-friendly wing of the ANC. However, such a coalition would face criticisms from the many black South Africans who see the white-led DA as favouring the interests of white people, which the DA denies. Some analysts have said that bringing in a third, black-led party could help the ANC head off those criticisms. DA leaders have said a coalition is an option, as well as a “confidence and supply” arrangement with an ANC minority government and staying in opposition. Another option for the ANC, and one that is likely to be preferred by the left wing of the party, is to link up with the EFF. That option would need another partner to clear the 50% needed, however. Often mentioned is the Inkatha Freedom party (IFP), which took 17 seats, and, like the MK, gets most of its support from Zulu people.

For the first time since the end of Apartheid in South Africa, the African National Congress won’t have a majority. The ANC, however, will continue to have the most seats, and need to form a coalition, likely with either the Democratic Alliance (DA) or the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) and/or uMkhonto weSizwe (MK).

10 Awesome Internet Facts

Here are ten internet – related facts and milestones that have helped shaped connectivity across the South Africa, Africa, and the Earth.

It was in 1974, when the term “internet” was first used as a shortened term for “internetworking” (lame, right?) . At the time, there were several internets, as they referred to collections of linked networks.

The internet emerged in ’89 when a programmer named Tim Berners – Lee wrote the code for the first web browser called World Wide Web along with the standards for HTML, HTTP and URLs. The world also saw it’s first internet service providers (ISPs) starting at the same year. In the US, the first commercial dial-up ISP called ‘The World’ was started in 1989.

Rhodes University located in Makhanda, Eastern Cape, South Africa received the first South African IP Address in ’88.

In ’90, the internet corporation for assigned names and numbers granted South Africa the country code top-level domain .za.

South Africa’s internet user base grew from 2.4 million in 2000, to 5 million in 2008 to 12.3 million in 2012. In January 2021, this number grew to 38.13 million or close to 60% of the population, by contrast, Africa’s average internet penetration is just under 50%

Africa’s first broadband submarine cable system was launched by SEACOM in 2009. The 17 000 kilometers submarine cable connects African countries like South Africa, Kenya, Mozambique, Namibia, Tanzania etc. to the internet.

In 2017, China had 756 million people connected to the internet, and India, 391 million people connected to the internet so basically Asia accounts for almost half of the world’s active internet users!

Gauteng is the province with the most access to the internet with 72.2% of the population connected and growing, while Limpopo is the province with the least number of people connected to the internet with 42.6% of the population connected to the internet and growing.

The average fixed broadband download speed in SA is 50 mbps which is an increase from when it was 46 mbps in May 2021. As fibre infrastructure in being rolled out and capacity improved, this number is expected to keep climbing.

The most popular website is…. You guessed it. Google. Facebook is the world’s favorite social media platform with 2.8 billion monthly users and growing.

[ad_1] Most South African dad and mom and learners are aware of the college follow of rewarding learners for tutorial achievement visibly, tangibly and publicly. Colleges are inclined to reward in methods which are each conventional and distinctive. Some rewards may be seen on the learners’ faculty uniform – like a particular type of tie or blazer. Different frequent types are pins worn on the lapel bearing phrases similar to “Arithmetic” or “English”. These function a every day reminder of a learner’s achievement, lasting properly past the ceremony by which they have been introduced. Colleges assert that reward programmes recognise laborious work and scholastic achievements and that they inspire learners to realize. One is perhaps inclined to consider there’s no hurt on this follow, on condition that the underlying intention is to inspire and recognise learners. But it surely’s not so simple as one would possibly assume. Rewarding learners for tutorial achievement may be problematic on many ranges. Who decides who will get rewarded? What achievements are thought of worthwhile and worthy? Do the achievements of some matter greater than others? Who decides the standards for awards? Is each baby unfit of recognition? In South Africa, rewards must be thought of within the context of inclusive training. Inclusive training is worried with the educational and achievement of all learners within the classroom no matter background, socio-economic standing and (dis)means. This may be achieved by means of collaboration between learners within the classroom, addressing social injustices by offering entry to all learners, selling democracy over a hierarchy and upholding the rights of all learners. The structure clearly states that everybody has the appropriate to fundamental training, and this encompasses all kids no matter their skills. My PhD analysis explored the methods by which visibly rewarding learners for tutorial achievement is according to the goals and beliefs of inclusive training. I seemed on the affect of seen rewards on all learners to evaluate whether or not they served as a barrier to the participation and achievement of some. I discovered that the present rewards system was inconsistent with the goals of inclusive training. Colleges ought to revisit the methods by which learners are inspired to realize. The analysis A complete of 141 members at two excessive faculties in Gauteng province have been concerned. First I surveyed learners’ dad and mom after which I interviewed lecturers, faculty administration and the grade 11 learners themselves. On this grade they are usually 17 years previous. Of the 104 learners who accomplished surveys, 66% have been award-winners. I discovered that they overwhelmingly felt that their award-winning standing had an impact on their id. Who they have been and the way lecturers handled them trusted the awards they received. Many learners felt that their laborious work and abilities went unrecognised, as the standards for being visibly rewarded have been slim, and didn’t bear in mind a broad vary of skills. Learners additionally felt that creativity was missed in awards, which have been principally based mostly on outcomes from exams and exams. Some learners discovered it troublesome to work in the direction of awards, and have become demotivated. Some expressed their need for a social life, like spending time with their buddies, as an alternative of spending each weekend finding out for a attainable reward. The examine discovered a disparity between the aggressive surroundings current in these faculties and the perfect of inclusive training. Seen rewards perpetuate exclusionary beliefs and attitudes, appearing as a barrier to inclusive training. Ideally, learners shouldn't be working for a reward, however as a result of they take pleasure in studying. Then the education system could be creating lifelong learners. These findings are vital as a result of South African faculties

are working inside a context that's premised on correcting the errors from a traditionally disgraceful previous the place faculties separated learners based mostly on race. Serving to all kids study and obtain to their full potential means fostering a faculty surroundings that’s constructed on collaboration and the sharing of concepts. Learners want alternatives to work collectively to realize academic outcomes, with clear emphasis on the success of all learners, versus the success of some. Competitors and post-school alternatives Competitiveness pits one learner in opposition to one other in a zero sum sport. For a learner to be the very best, and to win awards for that excellent achievement, his or her friends should lose. This type of expense is much too nice to disregard in a rustic fraught with inequalities. Highlighting the sterling achievements of some learners privileges some over others, whether or not deliberately or not. This hierarchical construction present in faculties has implications for learners who search alternatives post-school as properly. Throughout the focus group interview of my examine, learners described college scouts who got here to high school and instantly targeted on these learners who wore pins on their clothes indicating their award standing. The remainder of the learners have been ignored. Within the phrases of 1 grade 11 learner: Youngsters who're good are proven to be higher than everybody else, and the learners who try to work laborious to realize their finest are shunned. Many nations within the European Union, similar to Germany, Sweden and Finland, don't have any award methods for recognising learner achievements. But faculties in these nations produce excellence in tutorial achievement. As well as, various education fashions similar to Montessori, Waldorf and Reggio Emilia don’t assist the aggressive education model and the success of those strategies is well-documented. These so-called various strategies of educating and studying deal with self-regulation, self-motivation and life-long studying. To make training inclusive and to make faculties conducive to the educational of all kids, rewards methods should be questioned. [ad_2]
