million years old‚ which predates the earliest known "Homo" species. There is no known evidence that any "Homo" specimens appeared by 2.5 million years ago. A Homo fossil was found near some Oldowan tools‚ and its age was noted at 2.3 million years old‚ suggesting that maybe the Homo species did indeed create and use these tools. It is surely possible‚ but not solid evidence. Bernard Wood noted that "Paranthropus" coexisted with the early Homo species in the area of the "Oldowan Industrial Complex"

Ausralopithecus boisei roamed the earth as early as 1.1 million years ago and was on earth at the sametime as homo habilis and homo erectus. Most of the australopithecus fossils that have been discovered have been found in eastern africa and have been dated between 4.5 million and 1.1 million years old.

(language). These are the 3 traits that makes us human. To have bipedalism you have to have the ability to walk upright. According to the text‚ History Alive it states that “As scientists assembled the bones‚ they observed that these hominids (Homo Erectus) stood upright.” This is important because this shows that around two million years ago people were able to walk on 2 feet and use their hands for other things. For us modern humans‚ we are able to walk on our two feet and are able to walk for

phases of the evolution to modern humans—Homo habilus and Homo erectus‚ for example‚ are two stages of the transformation to Homo sapiens‚ the species that all modern humans belong to. According to the Hardy-Weinberg theorem‚ evolution will only not occur under very rigid circumstances‚ and since those circumstances do not apply to humans‚ the species is continuing to evolve‚ and is very likely to develop into an entirely new species eventually—perhaps Homo aquaticus‚ humans that will live underwater

The peopling of the Philippines: A cartographic synthesis Jean-Christophe Gaillard[1] and Joel P. Mallari[2] Abstract: This paper aims to plot cartographically the different theories proposed to explain the peopling of the Philippines. The first map locates the existing Pleistocene and Paleolithic archaeological sites while the next seven figures compile the different theories dealing with the evolution or dispersal of the Austronesian speakers. A final figure tends to summarize and formalize
