I suppose that the spelunking "hobbits" didn't
really need the ascenders, carabiners, etc. usually
used in abseiling down and up an 80-foot deep shaft:
From the above article:

"And nobody knows how long it took this concentration of broken bones
to accumulate. But the best guess of the investigators of the site is
that the bodies were thrown in there by other humans.
They're fragmentary, just like the animals bones that are also found
at this occupation site, and they are broken up in exactly the same
way. They also bear cut marks left by stone tools that are just like
the cut marks that are found on the animal bones. Evidently the humans
there treated human bones exactly the same way that they treated the
animal bones. And if they were eating the animals then probably they
were eating the humans as well."
