The ‘Unveiling Early Southern Sapiens Behaviour’ exhibition at the De Hoop Collection showcases the fascinating lives and practices of early humans in South Africa’s Southern Cape coastline. Visitors can delve into archaeological findings from places such as Blombos Cave, Klipdrift Shelter, and Klasies River, gaining insight into the beginnings and behaviours of early Homo sapiens who resided there between 120,000 and 50,000 years ago. The exhibition highlights the genetic evidence that links all Homo sapiens to African origins and serves as a recollection of our common roots, drawing focus to the interdependence of all humans.
