The 3D prints of the remains of Homo naledi, the most sensational fossils to be found in Africa in recent years, will be on display at London's Natural History Museum's Science Uncovered Event, BBC reports.

They were given to the institution by the Johannesburg discovery team.

The Homo Naledi bones from recovered from a cave complex. It is the biggest haul of fossils hominin ever recovered from the African subcontinent. The researchers have shared the fossils with the London Museum, after making copies of the fossils.

At the Science Uncovered event, Dr Louise Humphrey will explain the significance of the bones and the information they provide on human origins.

"I think the effect on the field is transformative," she told BBC News, "not just because the morphology indicates a new species, but because there are so many unanswered questions.

"We don't yet know how old these fossils are. We don't know yet whether there will be full bodies in this chamber, or nearby chambers.

"The number of finds from a single fossil locality is unprecedented. There are apparently three small babies and three small children, some older children as well as some adults."

NHM visitors will get to see a model of a skull, a hand, a foot, and some jaws. The fossils are small, as naledi is estimated to have been no taller than about 1.5m (5ft).

Researchers estimate the fossils to be very old, maybe a couple of million years old.
