Homo sapiens

Status Quo Change is followed by fear. Depending on how a person handles this fear they will either succumb to violence or passivity. It is a rare portion of the population that will face their fears head on with courage. In the story Simon vs The Homo Sapiens Agenda written by Becky Albertalli such courage is exemplified by the character Simon. In the book when Simon said he was “tired of coming out” (Albertalli, 40). what he was expressing was humanity's innate desire for things to be the…

A rat Rod, why rat rods? What is a rat rod? Who built the first rat rod? Pro streets or rat rods? What are the styles of rat rods? The first top question “Why rat rods?”. Let me tell you about them in these paragraphs. But first what is a rat rod. Many people have said that they were a piece of junk through together with a budget well they're wrong. A rat rod is a vehicle you can drive for as many miles as you want and not fall apart every 2000 miles. A rat rod is a vehicle that the parts are…

Creating Humans From Dust What if scientists told the world that evolution may not be true? What if they showed the world an alternative view to human history? For many years the dominant consensus on how humans came to be has been through the evolution theory. Many scientists, and people around the world view the evolution theory to be correct, sometimes without question. However, a new chapter in human history has opened up and it’s called Forbidden Archaeology. Forbidden Archaeology has…

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…

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 ancestry or…

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…

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…

Alice travels with Warren Clarke to see footprints that show evidence of early humans arrival dated back to over 20,000 years ago. After that, she looks for signs of any bones left from the ancient giant kangaroos that grew to 2.5 meters and became extinct over 50,000 years ago. Because of bones left from the “Mungo” man dated between 40 and 60,000 years ago she concluded that people could have lived there before entering Europe. She then traveled back to Africa to see how it would have been…

Ch.1 Clive Gamble’s “Settling the Earth: The Archaeology of Deep Human History,” begins with a brief discussion of a shared common ancestor amongst Africans believing this process of expansion settled the world. In addition, he provides a summary of hominins, a group we are included in with our extinct ancestors, Australopithecines, and Neanderthals (Gamble 2013: 23). As the text progressed, I began to understand the author’s notion of this first chapter. I believe this evolution of human…

The hominin evolution theory is the idea of Homo sapiens sapiens (AMHs) evolved from a lineage of hominins in Africa. The purpose of the project is to determine the genus and species of seven skulls discovered by Dr. Musoma in Africa, Europe and Asia, approximate the age of each skull, interpret the evolutionary pathway of each species, and provide evidence for and against the “Out of Africa” theory. The purpose of the project with be completed and evidence on the “Out of Africa” theory will be…
