2.  Common name: unknown  Features: Premolar and molar morphology point to niche affinities with ancestors Strong crown asymmetries, in particular enlarged buccal cusps, characterize the upper and lower premolars an ape-like molar shape prevails  Region: Ethiopian river valley

3.  Common name: unknown  Native to: Kenya Ethiopia  Features: large canines parallel (rather than parabolic) toothrows asymmetrical premolars and molars Mandibular remains display a robust bony shelf posterior to the incisors infero-posteriorly sloping mandibular symphysis

4.  Common name: unknown  Region: Northern Africa Western Asia  Features:  Parallel postcanine tooth rows.  Amarked angle of the mandibular condyles long axis, reflecting the angle of the mandibular fossa on the cranial base.  A canine-premolar diastema.  Large canines and incisors.  Molars with ascending size order (i.e., the smallest first).  A triangular third molar crown shape.  Serrated molar roots.

5.  Common name: None  Features: There is a forward projecting anterior superior iliac spine. A very small articular surface for the sacrum. A marked outward flare of the iliac blades.  Transportation: Isolated to Africa Hunter gatherers followed food supply

6.  Common Name: Not established  Features: The lower face is prognathic with procumbent incisors. Canine roots are placed quite laterally to the nasal aperture margin. The premaxillary surface is separated from the nasal floor by a blunt ridge and is transversely and sagittally convex. The palate is vertically thin. The zygomatic roots originate above P4/M1. dental arcade is U-shaped, slightly divergent dental rows.  Transportation: Sedentary in Ethiopia

7.  Common Name: Handy Man  Features: large scimitar-toothed predatory cat the size of a jaguar H. habilis used tools primarily for scavenging, such as cleaving meat off carrion, rather than defense or hunting Homo habilis is thought to be the ancestor of the lankier and more sophisticated Homo ergaster Human appearance  Tranportation: Sedentary lifestyle in Africa Along side Australopithecus

8.  Common name: unknown  Features: More anterior foramen magnum position. Deeper mandibular fossa with well-delineated, projecting, articular eminence. Nearly horizontal orientation of nuchal plane. Expanded height of occipital plane of the occiput, with a concomitant low inion position. Decreased facial prognathism, especially subnasal.  Region: South Africa

9.  Common name: Not established  Features: lack of crests and heavy muscle markings that characterize australopithecine crania. A marked constriction of the braincase behind the orbitals A bulging frontal bone that rises steeply to meet the square parietal bone An occipital bone that is smoothly rounded rather than flexed as in Homo erectus.  Transportation: Northern Kenya Isolated in Africa

10.  Features Increased cranial breadth across the parietal bones. Increased occipital bone length. Broader nasal bones. Broader nasal opening. Shorter cranial base. Greater development of the mandibular symphysis.  Common name: Working man  Transportation: Sedentary to South and Easter Africa

11.  Common name: upright man  Features: frontal bone is less sloped frontal bone dental arcade smaller than the australopithecinesaustralopithecines the face is more orthognatic (less protrusive) large brow-ridges and less prominent zygomata (cheekbones)zygomata hominins stood about 1.79 m (5 ft 10 in)  Transportation Migration from Africa to Asia

12.  Common name: Human being  Features: A broad, low frontal that is evenly curved. Presence of a wide sagittal keel. Supraorbitals that are a thickening at the forward edge of the sloping frontal. A shallow sulcus above the supraorbitals. A short face that is very broad. Expanded maxillary sinuses and consequentially puffy zygomatics. The orbits are spaced far apart. The nasal bones are broad and have little angulation. The dentition was moderate in size.  Transportation Hunter-Gatherers that followed food
