This book is about Hobbits. Or at least one Hobbit. A Hobbit is kind of like a human and kind of like a dwarf, but is smaller than a dwarf and human. They are quick on their feet and silent. They do not have any kind of magic in them, though some would say that being able to quietly and quickly dissapear from sight is a magic thing. The Hobbits name that this story is about is Bilbo Baggins. Gandalf, who is a wizard, comes one day to the Shire, where Bilbo lives. Since Hobbits are usually always…

In 1972 Maurice Taieb, 40, of France's National Center for Scientific Research, and Donald Carl Johanson, 34, of Case Western Reserve University and the Cleveland Museum of Natural History, discovered stone instruments going back 2.6 million years in the Afar area of Ethiopia. After two years their group made a considerably more sensational disclosure. On November 24, 1974, Donald Johanson and his understudy Tom Gray were reviewing a site named Hadar in the Afar area of Ethiopia, East -Africa…

There is no mistaking the distinctive sound of a chainsaw, screaming as it bites through a hunk of wood or the bark of a tree. There are even chainsaws which are used to cut through concrete, brick and natural stone. Chainsaws are perhaps one of the most convenient power tools available, and can save a lot of time and effort in construction and felling. Although the origin of the chainsaw is debatable, it is determined that the first chainsaw was made around 1830 by Bernard Heine, a German…

Hominid Evolution is the evolution of human lineage. Dating back millions of years with Sahelanthropus tchadensis, it's the oldest found hominid, dated around 7 million years old. This species is known for its cranium and it's very small brain size, and a specific amount of both jaws and teeth. It has many, ape-like features, such as; small brain size, brow ridges and small canine teeth, which are characteristic of hominids. However, this along with the fact that it comes from around the…

The history of life goes back over a million of years ago. The earliest evidence of humans in Europe, date about 1.8 million years ago (Smiley 2016, unit 11). Many years later, a partial skeleton was found and it was pretty evident that it belonged to an extinct human our closest evolutionary relative (Paabo, 2006). Many species have evolved and changed to what we call modern man. The Neanderthals and the Denisovans are very similar to modern man and are frequently referred to as “early modern…

Australopithecus Afarensis Species and Their Existence Humans are a species of hominidae. A hominid is any one of a family, hominidae, of mammals that includes humans with their extinct ancestral forms. Hominids evolved from each other. Humans have evolved over the millions of years from the first hominid. One of the hominid species that humans have evolved from is the Australopithecus Afarensis. A classification of an Australopithecus Afarensis is a Southern Ape. This species is a…

As mentioned above, the two skulls were compared are Proconsul Africanus (an ape skull) and Gracile Australopithecine (a hominid skull). Proconsul Africanus was from Kenya and lived 23.8-5.3 million years ago. However, Gracile Australopithecine was from Ethiopia and lived 5.3-1.8 million years ago. Based on observation the tooth size is different especially in terms of the canine teeth. The ape skull has large canine teeth whereas the hominid skull has small ones. The brain size of the hominid…

the transition of regimes. These regimes’ persistence is embedded in their cultural foundations and institutional structure (Yom and Gause, 2012). Elliot Abrams (2012) claims that the historical connection of the Arab monarchies give them their strength and legitimacy. He explains how the monarchy is often sustained by religious belief, and this gives them more legitimacy than any self-appointed strongmen (Abrams, 2012). The rationality paradigm does not appear as an independent category as…

Hi i'm Alfred Wegener, I am not crazy, my theory makes sense. I will prove it. I have four proofs to support my theories. One of my reasons, is this world is a puzzle, the 7 continents all fit together perfectly, my next theory of pangaea is fossils, then my explanation on mountains, and then i will prove my theory of ice sheets. These are the four reasons why pangaea is real. 300 million years ago there was only one super continent it was called pangaea. 200 million years ago pangaea started…

Homo meant man, and Habilis meant handy, or skilled. The first of the Homo Habilis was found by the archeologists Lois Leaky and Phillip Tobias. When the archeologists uncovered the corpse of one of the Homo Habilis, they named it Jonny’s child. The Homo Habilis reigned 2.4 to 1.4 million years ago. The primarily lived in Eastern-Southern Africa. The Homo Habilis were called the “Handy Man”, because they used more advanced tools…
