Inference Making
Event
Three more footprints left by subject S3, a male maturus, belong to a separate event. They all point towards the deep part of the cave and can be divided into a trackway (Fig. 23) and an isolated footprint (S3-6) (Fig. 18). The trackway comprises two footprints - right (S3-11) and left (S3-10), which were made at normal walking speed close to the western wall. For the isolated footprint (S3-6), also near the western wall, no statement can be made in this regard. When walking into the cave, subject S3 did not carry any additional load.
