Welcome to World History Key Questions: How do people Learn about prehistory? What do anthropologists think are the stages of human development? How did early people live?

What do we do if we don’t have written records? Pre-History: the time before writing Archaeologist: study past societies by examining the things people left behind (artifacts) Fossils: remains of human, plants and animals that have become hard like stone Anthropologists: people who study the beginnings and developments of a group of people

Hominids Early Hominids Name Time Period Characteristics Australopithecus 4-5 million yrs ago “southern ape” Stood upright and walked on two legs Homo-Habilis 2.4 million yrs ago “handy-man” Used for early stone tools Homo-Erectus 2-1.5 million yrs ago “upright man” Learned to control fire Migrated Homo-Sapien 200,000 yrs ago “wise man” Migrated around the world Used a wide range of tools First Humans are believed to have originated from Africa.
