About Field of Uncertainty Musiamo
Musiamo wa Boikgakanego, ho La Brea Tar Pits LA, o kopanya tlhahlobo, thwalo, le poloko ka sehlompho se kgahlisang sa nalane e ruileng ya sebaka sena. Moralo o kopanya tar e teng ka bokgabane, e sebetsang e le pontshiso le sebaka sa tlhahlobo se sebetsang. Kopanyo ena ya dikarolo tsa sejoalejoale le tsa mehleng ya pele e hlatolla nalane ya sebaka ka pono, e hohela baeti hore ba hlahlobe diphiri tse patiloeng. Ka boiphihlelo bo matla, bo kenellang, morero ona o kgothaletsa dipuisano le tlhahlobo, o etsa hore e be tlatsetso e kgahlisang ho La Brea Tar Pits.
