Do you think african click languages have a connection to echolocation?

My guess is the shapes would help them locate fire places by touch. And there might've been a spot where flammable substances would be to help start a new one

If they were 300 meters deep in a cave and they lit a camp fire wouldn’t they die of carbon monoxide

Did ancient humans actually spend a lot of time in caves? or is it just survivorship bias due to us finding lots of human remains in caves because of their preservative nature.

My daughter is blind and does this naturally. I think all hearing people do this already in small ways and we could do it even better with practice. We over rely on vision which makes us less aware of how much we can use our other senses if we would just practice it

the San click language could be a legacy

This is SO COOL. I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about how much better I might be able to use my senses if I’d lived as much of my life outdoors as an ancient human…

big animals like to shelter in caves, you build a surround with your fire inside of that surround for protection and to radiate/reflect heat back at the camp.
there's many examples of this outside of caves too, that plus the fact people still use this method today.

It’s not a hypothesis cause it’s not falsifiable

Or their eyes were just adapted to the dark better like animals

my thoughts was that during a flip of the magnetic poles those that had sheltered in the caves survived and werent injured by the sun.

could it be a burial? because that 2 structure in the middle looks like grave to me

My father’s blind cousin and best friend growing up in rural Ga used echolocation. He would walk the dirt roads back home at night and would whistle.

Could they have sang their way into the caves? Again no way to test it, but I imagine a hum would bounce differently than a click and they could have used a combo of both depending on where they were at and how large the space was

I got a blood test done to check ancestry and apparently I’m like 3-4% Neanderthal and I can definitely see wayyyyy better in the dark than anyone I’ve ever hung out with hands down no contest
