AD-S12-02

To subject S12, a female adult, five footprints were assigned with four of them forming an interesting trackway – left (S12-5), right (S12-4), left (S12-2) and right (S12-3) (Fig. 23). The event happened in the northern part of sector C close to the western wall. While walking fast into the direction of the deep part of the cave, subject S12 managed a slippery passage. With her left foot (S12 - 5), she started slipping for about 3-4 cm. But with her right foot (S12-4) she made a safe next step, however then again, she slipped with her left foot (S12-2), for around 28 cm. She then managed to stop slipping by pressing the same foot down in an oblique angle. In order to maintain her balance, she then made a step backwards with her right foot (S12-3) (Fig. 20), with which she rammed her toes into the clay. A single additional left footprint (S12 - 1) attributed to subject S12 proves that she afterwards moved on (Fig. 16). On its way to the deep part of the cave, she did not carry any additional weight.
