First- and third-year students from the Department of Anthropology at the University of the Free State (UFS) recently took part in the celebrations of the African Origins Month held at the National Museum in Bloemfontein. The main objective of the project was to raise public awareness for palaeontology, rock art and archaeology with regard to the origins of man in Africa. At the celebrations were, from the left: Mr Tebogo Mohlakane (of the education division of the National Museum), Clementina Klein, Bruewayne van Schalkwyk, Johan Venter (all first-year students in Anthropology at the UFS), and Mr Jo Serekoane (junior lecturer in the Department of Anthropology at the UFS).
