Is there another way into the chamber? Maybe a way since collapsed?
It seems highly unlikely that these folks would have dragged the bodies thru the tight places described repeatedly over the years. Yeah, I realize they were smaller but that doesn’t make a tight squeeze into a boulevard.
There is no mention of artifacts...was Uncle Ooog not laid down with his favorite spear point or chopper?
Looking to learn more...
I wondered about that as well.
However, the bones were not disturbed by scavengers.
“We CT-scanned it in my wife’s x-ray machine - she’s a radiologist - and we saw an individual, a child about 13 years of age. We’d find two other faces in there - a neonate and this. Do you see those blue lines right there? That’s a hand. Do you see the orange thing, which is conveniently labeled “rock”? That is a tool-shaped rock that no human being has ever seen except in this image.
This is being produced at the synchrotron in Grenoble, France, the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility, and you are looking at what looks like a tool buried with the H. naledi in the hand of a 13-year-old H. naledi child. A nonhuman species is the only artifact like that in the entire system.”

Uncle Ooog did not have an artifact, but his ‘grandson’ did.
No, the bodies crawled back there themselves. Just stop.
