About 17‚000 and 12‚000 years ago artistic skill rose and the Cro-Magnons began using paints and wall space.

Neanderthals were prehistoric people but the actors of this movie look like you and me playing to be prehistoric.

The Leakey family was one that bettered the understanding of our origin as a species. Louis S. B. Leakey and Mary Leakey were anthropologists in search of remnants of ancient humans.

Her and her team found footprints preserved in volcanic ash that appeared to be very similar to those of a modern human. The Australopithecines‚ ancient humanlike beings‚ were the ones who made these marks. Australopithecines
