Maropeng has started a new group on Flickr, a popular photo-sharing website. The group is called the Cradle of Humankind and invites users to share images from the Cradle, including Maropeng and the Sterkfontein Caves.

Although it was only recently started, the group has already attracted almost 40 members and has a photo pool of over 230 images.

We were so impressed with the quality and range of images submitted that we have incorporated a feed of images on to the front page of our website, which links back to the images in the Flickr group.

We invite you to submit your images to the Flickr group, or visit the group by clicking here.
