Description
Afrikaans: Borsbeeld van Phillip Vallentine Tobias (1925–2012) in die Sterkfonteingrotte
    Phillip Vallentine Tobias
     FRS., HON. FRSSAF
     (1925 -)
Leier van die span wat van 1955 tot 2005 die Sterkfontein-grotte uitgegrawe en duisende fossiele herwin het, insluitend meer as 600 hominiedvondste.
Sy strewe het Sterkfontein die wêreld se rykste hominieddraende grotterrein gemaak en daartoe gelei dat die grotte van hierdie omgewing in Desember 1999 tot wêrelderfenisterrein verklaar is.
