APWH Unit 1 Chapter 1 Early Human History

Key Questions What is Civilization or Culture? Which came first? How are the terms similar? How are the terms different?

What is Culture? 1.Learned patterns of expression and action 2.The first cultural trait of early humans was making tools 3.Mysteries about early human culture are: what cave art really meant what megaliths were used for

So how does “culture” turn into civilization? A very very very very very very very long and slow process we now call……. Evolution of the species

Darwin’s Theory

Charles Darwin’s Theory 1859 published On the Origin of Species Evolution Theory was based on his observations and study of the animal and plant kingdom “Well I’m a monkey’s uncle!”

Because of science we Know 1.99% of DNA in apes is identical to humans 2.Human skin color changed over time due to environmental conditions. 3.Travel between continents was possible during last Ice Age through temporary land bridges caused by low sea levels 4.After the Ice Age new animal species evolved from old forms and the human form as we know it was achieved!

Darwin’s Theory So do you think you evolved from an ape? If so your family did this… Your ancestor?

Scientists and Historians generally agree: Earliest human activity revolved around gathering food Many large species of animals were hunted to extinction by humans Creating tribes/clans occurred early in order to survive the Old Stone Age Family/Tribal culture is the foundation for CIVILIZATION! tribal initiation

Basic stuff you need to know about the 3 stages of the human transformation.

Homo habilis “Handy Human” Made and used simple tools (skip 4 lines)

Homo erectus “Upright Human” Began migrating out of Africa (skip 4 lines)

Homo sapien “Wise Human” Thinking, creative, adaptable (skip 4 lines)

Summarize this image As humans progressed…

BRAIN SIZE INCREASED!

Pencils down… Identify the three latest stages in human development Level 1 question 1.Homo habilis 2.Homo erectus 3.Homo sapiens

Describe the three latest stages in human development Level 2 question Fill in….. 1.Homo habilis started using tools 2.Homo erectus began to migrate and spread out across the earth 3.Homo sapiens settled down and formed the first permanent civilizations

What stage of development is this? Homo habilis Earliest tools were simply stones, wood and bone Size and sharpness were likely what mattered most. Towards the end of the stage – the making of tools would begin

What stage is there the earliest evidence of the use of fire? Homo Erectus Campfire evidence in Neanderthal caves. Homo sapiens expanded their use of fire for more than just warmth.
