Homo naledi is an extinct species of archaic human discovered in 2013 in the Rising Star Cave system, Gauteng province, South Africa, part of the Cradle of Humankind, dating to the Middle Pleistocene 335,000–236,000 years ago. From Wikipedia
Research on Australopithecus sediba and Homo naledi suggests a mosaic of climbing and dexterity adaptations rather than a linear progression toward modern hand function.
