Organize in to a family tree Homo neanderthalensis Homo erectus/Homo ergaster Homo sapiens Australopithecines Homo habilis

Our family tree picture http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/4f/Human_evolution.jpg

Southern ape of Africa (Australopithecines) one of the earliest hominids about 3 million years ago brain size the same as that of a chimpanzee signs of walking fully erect (bipedal) picture:http://www.fossils-as-art.com/images/LUCY-l.jpg

Homo habilis about 2.5-1.6 million years ago brain size greater jaws less prognathic tool use (handy man) picture: http://lithiccastinglab.com/images/flintknappinghisthabilissmall.jpg

Homo erectus/Homo ergaster about 1.8-0.5 million years ago migrated to other continents walked fully erect difference in size between sexes similar to that of humans picture: http://www.dkimages.com/discover/previews/942/664837.JPG

Homo neanderthalensis about 200,000-30,000 years ago separate line (descended from H.erectus) lived in Europe brain size the same as ours picture: http://www.fossilscience.com/Images/Homo_neanderthalensis.JPG

Homo sapiens appeared around 200,000 years ago anatomically "the modern man" descended from H.erectus Out of Africa hypothesis Multiregional hypothesis picture: http://www.kenyalogy.com/images/modhsi.jpg

Important points brain size has tripled head shape less apelike walking in a upright position use of tools family relations culture, language, humane features (burial)
