Early Man/Hominids

Vocab Hominids Anthropologist Remains Biped Migrate Land-Bridge Paleoanthropologist Use your book or a dictionary to define these words.  Keep them in your binder.

Hominid Skulls

Ardipithecus Ramidus Vital Stats Lived 4.4 Million Years Ago older than Lucy 4 feet tall Could climb and walk on  two feet (bipedal) Nickname "Ardi"  name means "ground ape"

Australopithecus Afarensis Vital Stats 3 feet tall  lived 3 to 4 million years ago   Biped (walked on 2 feet) Brain 1/3 the size of humans Early human ancestory Nickname "Lucy"

Australopithecus Afarensis cont... No tools or fire Mouth and forehead stuck out of face Lived in Africa     Ethiopia      Afar Region Lucy found in Africa by Donald Johanson "lucy in the sky with  diamonds"

Homo Habilis  (Handy Man) Vital Stats 4 feet tall   Larger brain than Lucy Lived in Africa 1.5 to 2 million years ago Used tools made of stone, sticks, and bone Lived in Groups

Homo Erectus (Upright Man) Vital Stats Found before Lucy and Habilis 5 feet tall 1.8 to 200,000 years ago Migrated out of Africa to Europe and Asia Used Fire Had a larger brain

Homo Erectus  using fire. Map showing migration of Homo Erectus

Homo Sapiens Neanderthalensis (Neanderthal) Vital Stats Large Brained   5 feet tall 230,000 to 20,000 years ago Lived and traveled in groups Community based  Found in Africa, Near East, Asia, and Europe.

Neanderthal                                 Human

Homo Sapiens Sapiens (Doubly Wise Man)  Early Modern Humans Vital Stats Over 5 feet tall 35,000 to 12,000 years ago Traveled to North and South  America, Australia.  They used a land-bridge to cross from  Asia to N. America Made complex tools Made cave art were very smart

Migration of Early Humans

Main Ideas:  The ability to walk on two feet (biped) allowed hominids to carry things in their arms such as food and children   Early hominids evolved over millions of years. Each new hominid developed new abilities that helped them survive The ability to use tools allowed hominids to live better and longer lives.  Tools were for cutting, digging, smashing, and grinding.  Rock and sticks develop into more advanced tools made of bone then metal. Use of fire allowed hominids to migrate farther and survive longer Neanderthals developed communities
