Abstract

The article provides information on clues and objects found by anthropologists in a coastal cave at Pinnacle Point in South Africa. Inside of the cave, the researchers uncovered the remains of shellfish, chunks of pigment that could have been used for body painting and sharp stone tools. This discovery has assisted in understanding when certain modern behaviors originated.
