In honour of his 90th birthday, Professor Revil Mason, one of Joburg’s leading archaeologists, presents a retrospective of some of his most iconic excavation sites at the Origins Centre. Among Mason’s excavation sites are important discoveries such as the remains of Stone Age and Iron Age settlements on Joburg’s Melville Koppies. Merging 'then and now' the exhibition also interrogates the finds of new excavations and their implications for what we know about our early ancestors.

On April 6 and April 27 at 10:00 Professor Mason leads walkabouts of the exhibition – see details here.
