Fossil child hominid skeleton found in south africa

A almost complete skeleton of a child has been discovered in sterkfontein cave,also known as the cradle of humankind,because of the number of  hominid fossils discovered there.

The fossil is about 2 million years old and may be intermediate between australopithicus and homo habilis.

Not sure if connected, but it is reported that a fossilized adult female has been found in malapa cave
