Description In this, the first in a series of geographically themed examinations of Human Evolution sites in the context of the HEADS (Human Evolution: Adaptations, Dispersals, and Social Developments) World Heritage Thematic Programme, current issues in human origins research and site management are explored in the context of the classic region of human evolution research: Africa. There is no more appropriate  place to begin a regionally themed examination of human origins;  just as modern h...
