An Homo naledi group carry one of their dead into Rising Star cave in this artist's depiction. New evidence that these small-brained hominins may have practiced deliberate burial throws a curve into current thinking on human evolution.

He looks like a ‘George’.

Nonsense.

Not so hard to learn that if something stinks, cover it with dirt?

At least he doesn’t look gay.

I keep telling people that size doesn’t matter. :)

Homo democrati has a brain as big as other modern humans
but they probably wouldn’t be smart enough to bury their own dead.

It begs he question - how much of the size of the brain is related to functionality and how much just to ability to store information. Is greater brain size due to greater (more complex) functionality or just more, and more complex information handling. One wonders.

Stopped reading at “a mysterious human species...”. If one cannot write the truth, one should not write. Instead, one should open The Bible and read beginning with Genesis 1:1: “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” This is where truth and knowledge and wisdom begin and reside, for all to read, learn from and comprehend.
