Abstract
The evidence concerning the behaviour and Osteodontokeratic culture of
the australopithecines that can be assessed from a study of the rhinoceros teeth
found in the grey breccia at the Limeworks cavern, Makapansgat is discussed.
The material examined consists of ninety-nine identifiable teeth or portions
of teeth, only a few of which are still attached to jaw fragments, and eighty-two
tooth fragments too small to be identified.
