Regional variation is great enough that cultural traditions become evident. Tools composed of two or more materials that require complicated preparation become common and suggest increasingly complex brains. The tool tradition associated with the Neanderthals in western Europe is called the Mousterian (Klein 1999). All are eventually replaced by the blade industries of the Upper Paleolithic which are associated with modern humans. Encephalization‚ Language and Speech; brain sizes expressed as estimated

fill in the gaps of his insufficient data about Lucy. Dubois had also found fossils of a “Java ape-man.” He believed that Neanderthals were the evolution of humankind. The author explained that Dubois had read Darwin’s theory of apes’ evolution‚ but that he did not completely understood what Darwin really meant. Darwin believed that there were linkages between apes and Neanderthals‚ but that in between these two species there needed to be another of the two

Summary: Humans‚ apes and monkeys share a common ancestor. This ancestor lived about 45 million years ago. Many fossils have been found traits of both humans and apes; also comparisons of modern humans and apes support this theory. PRIMATES Primates are a group of mammals that have special characteristics that include: both eyes are located at the front of the head and they provide binocular or three-dimensional vision; also all primates have 5 fingers (four fingers and a thumb). The ancestors

Introduction: As seen in the article‚ Are Humans still Evolving‚ there were many people thinking that we as humans are still evolving. The truth of human traits still evolving derives from the Charles Darwin’s theory. When history passes on a day to day basis the population of the human species changes and the differences in our reproductive systems does play a big role in our evolving traits. Some people think we as a human race have evolved through the Ape Species. Many thousands of years ago

Genetics is an intellectual interest of mine. I was first attracted to genetics by a documentary about Neanderthals. Although the documentary itself wasn’t on genetics‚ it mentioned how some humans have a percentage of Neanderthal genes in them. I found this incredibly interesting that our genes could be traced back in history. I was further interesting about genetics was that one could have genetic mutations. This led me to wonder if maybe there are people in the world with genetic mutations that

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)
