A country I would like to visit



The country I want to visit is South Africa. It's not really a dream that I have long time ago, I started to thinking about it one and a half year ago, when I was taking the Evolution course on the second semester of my first year of Anthropology and realized that it is a very important country for my field of study.
I really don't know much else about South Africa. I know that there are a lot of ethnic groups and cultural diversity, even hunter-gatherers, which are not very common in the rest of the world. My main reason to visit this country it's because I learned that there is a site called the Cradle of Humankind, called like that because there were found a lot of hominin fossils that form part of the human lineage and are dated back as far as 3.5 million of years. I don't want to live in South Africa, but I'd like to do some research on one of the main caves of the Cradle of Humankind, the Rising Star Cave system which contains the Dinaledi Chamber, a place which made a big impact on the field because it's where the biggest concentration of fossils of the same species is found, around 1550 bone remains of Homo naledi. I would really like to discover a new fossil or evidence that could clear up and answer some question about our past.
