Saving energy was applied to having and raising more offspring. Homo habilis‚ meaning handy man‚ is the same as the Australopith but they have little different physical characteristics. Homo habilis have bigger brains‚ less hair‚ and have a flat nose not as flat. They also don’t have a leathery face. Homo habilis began to observe the environment for clues to food. They developed more teamwork and scared away predators. Homo habilis had stone tools called

our own perspective‚ the first thing to do is see all that is similar and decide where that fits in relation to us. I believe there are many reasons to think this is another species. The simple number of things that “don’t make sense” if we view homo floresiensis through a human perspective is the first warning flag‚ even though it isn’t a scientifically provable reason. This specimen breaks many of the “rules” that science has believed‚ such as the smaller brain capable of tool-use and other

The newly discovered fossil face is flat‚ as in the original skull. The partial jawbones look similar to the skull found in 1972 but enlarge the known variation in the skull and teeth of Homo rudolfensis. Along with fossils of Homo habilis and Homo erectus‚ these new specimens support the existence of multiple species of Homo in eastern Africa between about

a group of scientists found the partial skeleton of a new human species we had never seen before. Researchers called the remains LB1‚ also nicknamed the hobbit due to its small size. It was first believed that this new species‚ Homo floresiensis‚ was a descendent of Homo erectus that had simply dwarfed over time due to limited access to resources. However‚ newer studies have highlighted some of the more primitive characteristics of LB1‚ which lead scientists to believe that the hobbits branched off

We‚ homo sapiens‚ are the sole survivors of a long lineage of hominins. Why we beat our contemporaries is not precisely explained but many theories support the notion that our physical build (endurance running); diet (omnivores of fish‚ insects‚ meat and vegetables); ability to adapt (sewing and tools from animal bones) and innovate in new environments (migration to all regions‚ not just Europe); and‚ intellect for conveying thought and meaning‚ set us apart from our competitor cousins.

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

EVOLUTION OF MAN: Evolution – Change over a long period of time Theory: * Charles Darwin’s Theory: His book was published on 1859 with the title of “On the origin of the Species of Man” This book stressed that man and all other species on earth were products of a long process of evolution. All species are related to each other and evolved over a long period of time.
