The Origins of Man

Unit Essential Questions How did people populate the Earth? How and when did different people groups emerge? How do historians and scientists formulate their theories about how the earliest people lived?

Hominids (human-like beings that walked upright) Homo Erectus “Upright Man” Originated in Africa and populated Europe and Asia Used tools, controlled fire Believed to have lived 1.7 million to 500,000 years ago Ancestor of modern humans or separate species that went extinct?

Hominids cont. Neanderthals Lived 200,000 - 30,000 years ago in Eurasia Ancestor of modern humans or separate species that went extinct? One theory is that they lost competition with modern humans

Hominids Cont. Homo Sapiens Modern Humans Appeared in Africa around 200,000 years ago Made it to every continent by about 30,000 years ago

The Migration of Homo Sapiens

Religion and Science What’s the truth? Are the two necessarily at odds?
