Human Evolution Timeline Complete the timeline on the next page

Timeline of Cranial Capacity & One other trend …….. Describe two trends illustrated by the fossils opposite. A.Africanus

Hominid coexistance Name two pairs of hominid species who have co-existed How many years ago did each one happen?

Diet & Brain size. Discuss the correlation between the change in diet and increase in brain size during hominid evolution. As the cranial capacity (brain size) increased the diet changed… As brain size increases, use of tools increases, ability to eat food that needs cooking appears, natural forest habitat changes. Hunting – spears … ..Fire, tools, forest disappear…

Genetic & Cultural Evolution Discuss the relative importance of genetic and cultural evolution in the recent evolution of humans.
