Fossils Or Diamonds— Hunt For Both And Get Rich
The fabulous Kimberley diamond fields of the Hartz river valley in the Union of South Africa may contain something far more valuable than raw diamonds. That something is an accumulation of ancient bones buried deep in the chalk cliffs of pre-historic streams according to Dr. Frank Peabody, instructor of zoology.
In July, 1947, Dr. Peabody went as paleontologist with the University of California expedition, to explore the ground where these ancient bones were discovered. It was his job to determine the age of the fossil bones.
"The expedition spent one year looking for representative specimens of ancient fossils," Dr. Peabody said. "In this region of Africa where the glaciers reached their most southern point of travel, some of the secrets of man's origin are being uncovered. In 1924, the skeleton of a chimpanzee-like ape with a curious mixture of human characteristics was found. Now long extinct, the specimen once walked up-right. He probably lived in the Pleistocene era, the early age of glaciation.
"Our main purpose was to investigate the history of early man as revealed here, along with the history of the man-like apes, and animals with which early man lived. This was done bystudying the geographical location, large and small mammals, and contemporary fossil flora and fauna."
The expedition concentrated on locating a series of caves representing the time scale of man during the first glacial period.
"As a matter of fact, we were checking on the supposition that man existed in early Pleistocene," Dr. Peabody explained.
"At Taungs, 50 miles north of Kimberley, the famous diamond mining town, a valuable discovery was made: the Witkrans, or White Cliff, cave. Witkrans overlooks the broad Hartz valley teeming with the great African game animals.
"The roof of the cave had been eroded until the ceiling toppled down the cliff-side. In the top six inches of the stratified floor, we found the teeth of a middle-stone-age man, bones of animals on which he fed, and stone tools. This threefold association is a rare occurrence, particularly in South Africa."
Illustrating the cave's remoteness, he said, "We worked on the cave ledge by day, and baboons
Apparently ancient man found diamonds too hard to split because no diamonds were found at the archeological sites Dr. Peabody observed.
roosted there by night."
"We did find something which we thought were diamonds, but they turned out to be only clear quartz evstals." he said.
The remains of fossil reptiles, much older than the primate discoveries, were also investigated on great Karoo, a high mesa country resembling the southwestern part of the United States. Here an important chapter in vertebrate history, missing in North America, was filled in by the fossilized strata.
A large percentage of the mammal-like reptile fossils represented the transition from reptile to mammal. Complete skeletons are so plentiful that rain-storms uncover thousands each year.
Before returning home, the expedition made a side-trip to Kruger national park. Fifty miles wide and 300 miles long, the park is probably the greatest natural zoo in the world, Dr. Peabody asserted.
"By day, the tourist must remain in his car. At night, he is caged while the great carnivores stalk game, sometimes at the gates of the fenced-in camps.
"I got a tremendous thrill standing behind a flimsy barbed-wire fence in the moon-light watching shadows glide about the edge of the jungle, only a few vards away."
There are at least 40 species of wild animals in the park. One can see enough of them at close range to fill the largest zoo in the world. It is a fairly common sight to see 50 giraffes or thousands of antelope in their natural habitat in a single day.
