Early Hominids History Alive Chapter 2

Hominids Prehistoric humans

Paleoanthropologists Anthropologists study human development and culture. Paleoanthropologists specialize in studying the earliest hominids.

Donald Johanson In 1974 An exciting discovery Female hominid Named “Lucy” because he was listening to “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.” 3 million years old

Hominids Hominids differ by what capabilities they have. Capability is a skill.

Australopithecus Afarensis: Lucy and her relatives Lived about 3 to 4 million years ago. Combination of Ape and human features Biped which means that she walked on two feet. With their hands free, she could gather and carry food. They could also used their hands to defend themselves and their children.

Homo Habilis: Handy Man Were discovered by Louis and Mary Leakey. Were called Handy Man because they could make tools.

Homo Habilis: Handy Man Lived 1 to 2 million years ago. Combination of Ape and Human features. Bipeds Taller than Lucy. Brains twice the size as Lucy’s. Remains only in Africa.

Homo Erectus: Upright Man Discovered in 1891 by Eugene Dubois off the Island of Java.

Homo Erectus: Upright Man Lived from 1.8 million to 200,000 B.C.E. First hominid to migrate out of Africa. Taller and thinner than earlier hominids. Face looked more like modern humans. Able to invent more complex tools and travel with fire.

Homo Sapiens Neanderthalensis: Neanderthals In 1856, some mine workers in Germany’s Neander Valley found a skeleton.

Homo Sapiens Neanderthalensis: Neanderthals Lived from 230,000 to 30,000 years ago. Lived in Africa, the Near East, Europe, and parts of Asia. Walked upright. More than 60 types of tools have been found. They were able to work, travel, and lives in groups.

Homo Sapiens Sapiens: Early Modern Humans Marcel found the first prehistoric cave paintings in Lascaux, France.

Homo Sapiens Sapiens: Early Modern Humans Lived between 35,000 to 12,000 B.C.E. Doubly Wise Humans Originated in Africa Europe, Asia, and Australia Expert Tool Makers Better hunters The first artists.
