According to Rittenberg and Tregarthen (2009), economics is “a study of choice”. This simple assumption is the most basic definition of the general economic thought because if there is a scarcity present, then there is a choice to be made about this scarce resource. Moreover, Rittenberg and Tregarthen (2009) also point out that what distinguishes economic approach from any other science, whether social or not, is that economists study this “choices” assuming that people try to maximize their…

Vivian A Zelizer argues individuals will all behave in a different way in their responds or interaction with money. Every individual’s perception of money is different and therefore the way they value its significance is also different. The individual’s social and cultural structure matter because it’s these concept that define the way the individual feels about money compared to another individual whose culture and social structure is completely different. Concepts like these define how the…

ardipithecus boisei is 18.5, homo erectus is 35.71, homo habilis is 33.6, homo heidelbergensis is 26.1, homo neanderthalensis is 25.5, homo sapiens is 36.77, and sahelanthropus tchadensis is 18.5. The fact is if the opisthion index is less than 15, then that organism walks with two feet. We can conclude that all the organisms are bipedalism…

The Lebombo Bone is a Baboon Fibula, it is an ancient mathematical artifact. It was used as a Tally Stick and is nearly 35,000 years old. With the Ishango Bone is dating back to 20,000 B.C. it is yet another amazing mathematical artifact. Found in the 1970’s during the excavations of a Border Cave, the bone was found with nearly 29 clear defined notches and with it being found it was stated that it was the oldest mathematical artifact dating it was approximately dated back to 35,000 B.C. Judging…

Introduction – *Infraclass Metatheria includes pouched mammals andwas first proposed by Thomas Henry Huxley (1880) comprising 272 primitive mammals. *Metatherians are an…

Homo Floresiensis We are the homo species that were found about 95,000 to 12,000 years ago on the island of Flores, Indonesia. We are 3 to 6 inches tall being bipedal, having small brains, shrugged-forward shoulders, no chins, diminished forehead and large feet because of short legs. We are also nicknamed as the “Hobbit” after the tiny creatures in the book Lord of Rings. We have been the most spectacular discovery so far being the most extreme human ever discovered. We don’t look like modern…

is the supposed birthplace of the human race. It is here that the Australopithecines, a group of hominins including Australopithecus and Paranthropus, lived from 4.2 to 1.2 million years ago. In the same area but from 1.9 to 0.027 million years ago, Homo ergaster also roamed around. Even though they shared the same geographic location, they each represent very different phases of the evolution to what we are today. It would therefore be interesting to see how they differed, based on the…

similar physical type compared to Neanderthals. The tooth, however has not provided researchers with any new discoveries on its morphological characteristics, other than having similarities to Homo erectus teeth (Reich, Genetic). However the last finding of the toe bone has revealed through extensive testing that Homo sapiens sapiens did in fact interbreed with Denisovans and have hybrid offspring (Zimmer, toe). Finally recent discoveries of skulls found in Dali and Maba may have Denisovan…

ecological conditions and behavioral patterns that contributed to the evolution of Homo habilis, Homo erectus, Archaic Homo sapiens, Neanderthals and early modern Homo sapiens during that period of time. First of all, the Pleistocene Epoch is the main point of this paragraph. The Pleistocene Epoch takes place from 2.6 million to 15,700 years ago. it is considered as the reason of the demise of many…

In the film, “The Real Eve”, there was a lot of information to process, but a lot of very fascinating details and facts about the first modern humans and how far they came. To start off, before I watched this video I thought humans first appeared on Earth may 70,000 years ago. However, in the documentary it mentioned that the first modern humans appeared in Africa 150,000 years ago, which really made me think how much longer Neanderthals were on Earth before us, considering that they’re a…
