If Homo habilis was a scavenger, you might expect to find animal bones with signs of tool marks for breaking into scavenged carcasses, especially the long bones with marrow. You would likely find a mixture of larger mammal bones, such as antelope or wildebeest, as well as smaller animals like rodents or birds. The bone fragments may also show signs of gnawing by other scavengers or carnivores.
