Tanzania is home to countless historical sites and amazing nature. Fossils of the skull of the ancestor of man (Australopithecus boisei) dating over 1,500,000 years ago and stone tools he used, all located on the slopes of the great rift valley have bestowed Tanzania the title - the cradle of Humanity. A myriad of historical sites believed to have been home to the early man due to possession of early cave paintings alongside bone remains prove that Tanzania is indeed a home of the early man.
