To anyone that has a intrest in this area, (which if you are reading this you proably have some) I would highly reccomend the book Fossil Men by Kermit Pattison. Also if anyone has some book reccomendations along these lines plz do send them my way
"Kindred: Neanderthal Life, Love, Death and Art" by Rebecca Wragg-Sykes is great.
"Almost Human" by Lee Berger is about one particular discovery rather than human origins as a whole but is an entertaining read - there was an accompanying PBS special (NOVA?) that's worth watching as well to really understand the scale of some of the caves they were in.
