Kipling's theory, unlike Darwin's, was confirmed. The skeleton of the alleged Mowgli was found in the Amazon jungle.
In one of the caves, because there are many of them, archaeologists (and the locals knew about this according to the legends of their grandfathers), a corpse was discovered. Or rather, quart the skeleton. So, according to one version, this is the same Mowgli who jumped on branches and was raised by wolves.
But these are all fairy tales, for Kipling described a force majeure case of human development from infancy in the wild in a surreal reality in the jungles of India.
According to local residents, only sick people can climb into these caves cursed by their ancestors. But curious archaeologists proved the opposite, it turned out that this was not a man's corpse, but a woman, or rather a girl, aged 20, and this cave is located in South America, but also in the jungle.
And the ancient Indians sacrificed it to the gods a thousand years ago, so that there was an abundance of water. During drought years, the stream of erupting water from the cave dries up, so it becomes possible to get there practically without getting your feet wet, which was practically used by archaeologists. And there, under the arches hidden for millennia, archaeologists have discovered gifts to the ancient gods in the form of human human remains.
