The Neanderthals are an extinct species in the homo genus. They lived during the Pleistocene age. The Neanderthals are believed to have lived in most of Eurasia from 120‚000 years ago to about 30‚000 years ago. They were a more advanced pre-modern variation of the homo genus. The reason they are viewed as more advanced than other Pre-modern hominids is because they made tools‚ buried their dead they also lived to around forty years of age. This is quite long compared to their contemporaries. Their

article "Finding Lucy: The Leakeys and the Search for Human Origins" dated June 13‚2016 written by Cynthia Stokes Brown discusses the Leakeys and their finding‚ but also Donald Johanson finding Lucy. Now‚ most scienctists agree that the human (Homo sapien) chain started out in Africa. They thought that because when they tested the ashes of the fossils that were buried by ashes near volcanoes‚ they could see how old the fossils were. The fossils that the scientists found were up to 4.4 million years

Multi-Regional Continuity: The Fossil Evidence With regards to the multi-regional continuity model of human evolution‚ there is without a doubt a preponderance of fossil data that supports the diverse origins of Homo sapiens in different regions of the globe. Skulls displaying a wide variety of mixed modern and archaic features have been found in every corner of the world. The mere existence of these fossils is evidence enough to prove that human evolution was far less cut-and-dried a process

What defines us as humans? Calling ourselves human is our way of categorizing ourselves as a superior species. Although we are distinctly different‚ we should accept that we are in the same family as chimpanzees. Acknowledging that fact doesn ’t mean you are calling yourself a chimp. For example‚ a dog isn ’t a wolf even though they are from the same family. We are humans. What is it about our physical and behavioral traits that enable us to develop uniquely human capabilities? Traits like language

that inhabit the planet Earth. Perhaps the most fascinating creatures that come to mind are the bonobo ape (Pan paniscus)‚ the red fox (Vulpes vulpes)‚ the green iguana (Iguana iguana)‚ the common honey bee (Apis mellifera)‚ and the human being (Homo sapien). It is a miraculous phenomenon as to how these beasts‚ as well as others relate and differ in the fields of romance and general romantic encounters. Mating is an essential and instinctive occurrence for all concerned. However‚ feelings of affection

In other words‚ they had achieved Homo Sapiens. This phase of bioengineering is commented on in 6000+-year-old Sumerian cunieform quasi-historical literary story tablets. The Sumerian historical stories mention humanoid Star Visitors as the race involved in their proto-ancestors’ bioengineering. Other Asia Minor records indicate a Reptoid Star Visitor group intervened at Derinkuyu and elsewhere. After observing Homo Sapiens in operation over a number of generations‚ and its idiosyncratic

THE WORLD That’s a rather vague question. The earliest true humans were Homo erectus. These early humans only used stones to begin with. Their earliest technology was called Oldowan and involved breaking smooth‚ rounded pebbles from rivers in rather a crude fashion to get a sharp edge to cut with. Later they developed a more sophisticated technique‚ creating a large‚ hand-held item shaped rather like a teardrop. It had two sharp sides coming to a point and one dull‚ rounded side which the

Introduction to Hominid Evolution Hominid evolution is the theory of the origins of the human species (Homo sapiens). Current understanding of human origins is obtained largely from the findings of paleontology‚ anthropology‚ and genetics. Of all primates‚ humans share particularly close affinity to other members of a group known as hominoids‚ or apes. Humans and their immediate ancestors‚ known as hominids‚ are notable among hominoids for their bipedal locomotion (Using two legs for walking)
