Homo floresiensis

I have no name. I am Homo sapiens sapiens, and I 've helped develop our culture. I have lived through many dark times, known to you as nights. I have no formal written language and am able to be equal in cognition and articulation as you, though this does not hold true for me in my time. My life here is during the time you refer to as the "Paleolithic” period. This is the earliest t and longest age of the Stone Age, lasting from c. 1, 5000,000 to c. 8000 B.C. We actively developed and utilize…

How did our ancestors survived through the challenges during Prehistory? What did hominids used environment to survive teaches us about? During Prehistory time, the way Homo erectus and Homo sapiens survived is similar and different but teaches us about how both used the environment to survive. Survival were necessary to our ancestors because survival is to remain alive. Survival has changed the level of the weapons that Hominids used. It also changed clothes that Hominids wear. Survival…

centuries we firmly believed in the idea of all creatures were quadrupedal and we had never seen any exception. It was by accident that we discovered a group of species that featured bipedalism named Homo sapiens. This discovery refuted our long-held belief and successfully aroused us interests. The Homo sapiens were in fact similar to us in many aspects of body traits. Therefore, the key to the mystery would most likely lie in those distinctions…

In the past hundreds years, the British colonized over 100 countries including South Africa. Did this leave any positive impact on the colonized country? The colonization of South Africa began long time ago in the sixteenth century. With around one hundred and seventy years of colonization, the British changed South Africa so much that it brought a bad impact to the South African people ("British Takes Control of the Cape”). These negative impacts could cost the South African people’s social…

The earliest convincing evidence of fire use for cooking appears at the 780,000-400,000 year old late Homo erectus site at Zhoukoudian near Beijing, China and the 400,000 year old Homo heidelbergensis or early archaic human site of Terra Amata near Nice on the French Mediterranean coast. In both cases the evidence is primarily in the form of food refuse bones that were apparently charred during…

of the foot and ankle of Chimpanzees and Homo sapiens sapiens show several distinct changes. These changes developed mainly due to the transition from quadrupedal to bipedal movement and becoming more terrestrial rather than arboreal. When researching different hominids in chronological order, it is clear that each change in our foot morphology occurred at a different time in our evolutionary history, and not all traits are exhibited in extinct lines of Homo and other hominid relatives. When…

the 1st earliest Homo-erectus skeleton ever to be discovered. The finding of this skeleton lets us know besides having a smaller brain, wider hips, and a small bit of longer arms homo erectus are very much like us. The main difference though is their growth rate represented a chimpanzee rather than a human. This allowed me to stop for a moment and reflect on my thinking and perception on what I have learned in anthropology so far and made me realize the major change from homo erectus from us…

Lucy lived in Africa where they lived in wet and dry environment typically wooden areas and grass. It was said that Lucy’s brain was less than 500 cubic centimeters about 1/3 of a humans brain but walked up right similar to how us humans walk. The Homo Habilis known as ‘Handy-man’ was alive on earth around 1.4-2.4 million years ago. Handy-man…

embryos, and similar living organisms. Scientists use fossils to help determine Geological change, but they are also used to determine how an organism began and how it has grown since it began. People use the fossils of the early humans such as the Homo erectus or the…

Lucy is part of the earliest discovered humans called Homo floresiensis also known as hobbits. When Lucy’s remains were found and examined in Ethiopia in 1974, it was determined that she walked upright just like humans today; part of the first species to walk on two legs. This discovery allowed for investigation…
