Our current theory was suggested by our colleague Dr.Ahmed Hamid Nassr, who has seen houses in Africa that are similar. The central stone likely had wood beams lashed to it, which allowed them to raise some form of natural roofing. But how do we know they are definitely houses? 3/8


Dr.Ahmed Hamid Nassr This kind of analysis is only possible due to the hard work that Jane has put in, along with our army of collaborators, including Finn Stileman, Ceri Shipton, Ahmed Nassr, Laura Strolin, and many more. 7/8

Jane McMahon We also found the stone tools they were using… and it was a lot! From 5 structures, we excavated 220kg of knapped stone. Our lithics gurus Finn Stileman, Ceri Shipton & Dr.Ahmed Hamid Nassr got fit! Most of the chipped stone was basalt- which was easy to use as it’s everywhere! 5/10
