An interview with Lee Berger, who a decade ago lead the team that discovered fossils of Homo naledi
What, you've never heard of Homo naledi? I'm not surprised. They were doing things, including burying their dead, that H. sapiens wouldn't be doing for another 100 millennia... and H. naledi had brains the size of chimpanzee brains. They show that modern-day humans aren't exceptional, or even special... and that doesn't match a lot of people's beliefs. (Once again, the Real World shows that it doesn't care what people believe.)
