    A note from the Editor-in-Chief

    At the South African Journal of Science we are
    delighted to have been given the opportunity to
    host a special issue commemorating the centenary
    of the publication of the discovery of the Taung
    Child – a major milestone in science history.

    We are grateful for the collegial and steadfast
    work of the Guest Editors, Rebecca Ackermann,
    Robyn Pickering, Yonatan Sahle and Lauren
    Schroeder. As with other special issues, we have
    paid particular attention to the independence of
    review processes, with review processes
    undertaken by our usual editorial team. We did
    ask the Guest Editors for suggestions of
    reviewers and expert readers, but we did not
    necessarily follow their suggestions – we
    considered these as we would consider suggestions
    from authors themselves.

    We are very pleased, therefore, not only to be
    publishing a special issue on very important
    issues for science in our context, but also that,
    with the kind cooperation of the Guest Editors,
    we are able confidently to state that all papers
    in the special issue (and those that were not
    accepted) were subject to the same levels of
    rigorous assessment as all other submissions to
    our Journal.

    Listen to this:
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1962%E2%80%931966 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1967%E2%80%931970
    This is the best music that ever existed. It takes you only 3 hours to
    listen to it all. When I was young I listened to the whole collection
    three times a day (so, 9 hours a day), for years, every day. While you
    were sitting by the book, trying to learn about humans, I was being a human.
    I am sick of those data collectors. Some people think that paleoanthropology is actually the science of tailoring, so they measure everything, somebody else thinks that it is like numismatics, so they
    collect everything. Tell me what you learnt from those data, don't tell
    me that I must obtain all the data. Have you learnt anything? https://youtu.be/gcYgfbnrV_I?si=yIJyNEcLD75l45uN

            Lol, I thought that I am in a different thread, and replying to
    a different author. Jesus, I am getting old, :) .

    I am saying that because that Pandora girl isn't that stupid, I can
    learn a few things from her. Sometimes.
