Mark McGovern presents on the evolution of early human tools. Several early human species are discussed, including Australopithecus afarensis from 4-1.2 million years ago which used basic tools like rocks and sticks, Homo habilis from 2-1.5 million years ago which sharpened rocks and began hunting with tools, and Homo erectus from 1.6-80,000 years ago which controlled fire and made basic axes and sharp rocks. Later species like Homo sapiens Neanderthalis from 133,000-32,000 years ago and Homo sapiens Cro-Magnon from 100,000-10,000 years ago developed more advanced tools from materials like stone

Early humans and tools
1) Early human-like creatures from over a million years ago used simple tools like sticks to help them survive, hunt, and gather food.
2) Australopithecus afarensis, the earliest humans, lived 1.2-4 million years ago and gathered food but did not hunt due to their small brains and inability to create tools.
3) Homo habilis were the first to create tools which allowed them to hunt smaller animals using sharpened sticks, though they could not make fire and relied on natural fires.
Early human food and clothing
1) Early hominids like Australopithecus afarensis were more ape-like and did not wear clothing as they were very hairy. They were scavengers and foragers who ate fruits and vegetables.
2) Homo habilis were more advanced but still did not hunt or wear clothing. They were scavengers who used simple tools to gather food like ants.
3) Homo erectus were the first to hunt, control fire, and use stone tools and axes, allowing them to cook meat and improve their diet.
Hominidnew
Humans evolved from early hominids over millions of years in four main stages: Australopithecines, Homo erectus, Homo neanderthalensis, and Homo sapiens. Early hominids learned to walk upright, use tools, control fire, hunt animals, and eventually farm, which allowed their cultures and intelligence to gradually develop over time as their bodies and brains evolved. Later hominid species grew stronger, smarter, and more capable of adapting to various climates and environments.
Ellie early humans tools
This document summarizes the evolution of tool use among early human species from Australopithecus afarensis to modern Homo sapiens sapiens. It describes how tools started as sharp rocks and have advanced to modern tools. Early humans like A. afarensis did not make tools but used found rocks and sticks. Homo habilis were the first to make sharp rock tools and discover fire. Homo erectus could create fire and used stone axes and knives. Neanderthals created more complex tools from different materials. Homo sapiens used bows and arrows and created boats and art. Modern humans continue advancing tools with materials like metal and plastic.

The document discusses Homo erectus, including:
1) Homo erectus erectus, also known as "Java Man", was discovered in Java in 1891 and is considered the earliest evidence of Homo erectus in Asia.
2) Homo erectus inhabited Java around 1 million years ago and is considered the first tool-making hominin species.
3) Remains of Homo erectus have been found across Africa, Asia, and Europe, indicating they had a wide geographic range during the Middle Pleistocene era.
Evolution of tools
This document traces the evolution of tool use among early humans from Australopithecus afarensis to Cro-Magnon humans. Australopithecus afarensis did not make tools but used found objects like sticks. Homo habilis were the first to create simple tools for hunting and gathering. Homo erectus controlled fire and made stone knives and axes. Neanderthals were strong and used fire to smoke food. Cro-Magnons were intelligent hunters who preserved food with salt and smoke and created advanced tools like bows, arrows, needles and fishing rods. The evolution of tools had significant effects on human activities like eating, cooking, food storage and migration patterns.

The document summarizes the evolution of early humans and their development of tools over time. It discusses that the earliest hominids like Australopithecus afarensis lived around 3 million years ago and used found tools like sharp stones. Later, Homo habilis were the first to make tools out of stone around 2 million years ago. Following groups like Homo erectus began making more advanced tools like hand axes and were the first to control fire. Later humans continued developing more complex tools for hunting, fishing, and other tasks, which helped their evolution and survival.

How Do They Make and Use Tools?
1) Various approaches are used to interpret evidence from artifacts in order to understand how they were made and used, including archaeological analysis, scientific analysis, ethnographic analogy, and experimental archaeology.
2) Stone tools were made through processes like knapping and were used as tools for hunting, butchery, and other tasks. Organic materials like bone, antler, wood, and plant fibers were also used to make tools and structures, and their forms and functions have been studied through replication experiments.
3) The evolution of stone tool technologies progressed from simple Oldowan tools in the Lower Paleolithic to more advanced blade-making in the Upper Paleolithic, showing increasing complexity over time.
H. erectus presentation
Homo erectus, meaning "upright man", lived between 1.9 million to 70,000 years ago. They had a brain size of 850 to 1000 cubic centimeters and were the first hominins to migrate out of Africa around 1.3 million years ago, spreading to Asia and Europe. Fossil remains have been found in locations like Java, Indonesia, Kenya, and Georgia. Homo erectus lived in groups and used shelters like bamboo forests and caves, controlling fire which allowed cooking and warmth. They made tools from wood and stone to hunt animals.
Ch.1/L1 - Early Humans
This document describes early humans and their transition from nomadic hunter-gatherers to settled farmers during the Neolithic Age. It explains that early humans hunted and gathered food but began farming around 12,000 years ago, allowing them to establish permanent villages. As farming developed, humans domesticated animals and crops, learned new technologies like weaving and pottery, and participated in trade between communities, marking a significant change from their previous hunter-gatherer lifestyle.
Early humans
Early humans such as Australopithecus used very rudimentary tools like twigs to catch bugs, while Homo habilis used stone tools to chop, scrape, and cut materials. Homo erectus created more complex hand axes and spears that allowed for hunting. Homo sapiens invented knives, spears, harpoons and used tools to build shelters and for hunting and food preparation. Later Homo sapiens developed more advanced tools like axes, bows and arrows, fish hooks, and needles and were the first to farm, ensuring a steady food supply. Modern humans now have highly developed tools like guns and survived the last ice age to populate the earth.
Ws 2
Early humans, known as Homo sapiens, emerged in Africa between 100,000 and 400,000 years ago and lived as nomadic hunter-gatherers who relied on wild plants and animals for survival. During the Paleolithic Era (Old Stone Age), which began around 2 million years ago, early humans invented the first stone tools, controlled fire, lived in clans, and created some of the earliest known cave art. In the subsequent Neolithic Era (New Stone Age), early humans developed agriculture and animal domestication, and began creating pottery and more advanced tools and weaving.
Early people and civilizations 2013
The document discusses early human interaction with the environment. It explains that early humans were hunter-gatherers who relied on gathering wild plants and hunting animals for food, clothing, and shelter. People lived nomadic lifestyles, migrating in family clans to follow food sources. The discovery of fire and development of simple tools assisted hunting and gathering. Scarcity of resources in some areas led to the beginnings of agriculture, as humans started cultivating plants and domesticating animals like sheep and goats.
(Social) Darwin and the Theory of Evolution
Charles Darwin embarked on a voyage in 1831 which led him to conclude that species evolve over generations from lower forms. In 1859, he published On the Origin of Species, arguing that humans and apes descended from a common ancestor. Fossil evidence shows early hominids like Australopithecus lived 4-2 million years ago in Africa with adaptations for walking upright. Homo habilis emerged around 2 million years ago, exhibiting more advanced tool-making abilities. Later Homo species migrated out of Africa and demonstrated behaviors such as controlling fire and crafting diverse stone tools.
Homo erectus presentation 6H
Homo erectus were early hominids that lived approximately 1.4 million years ago. They made tools like spears and hand axes from strong materials. Homo erectus were notable for being the first hominids able to control their body temperature through sweating. They had smaller brains than modern humans but were similar in having upright posture and long legs.
Early humans
Hominids first appeared around 3 million years ago after dinosaurs went extinct 65 million years ago. Early humans like Lucy from 3 million years ago were only 4 feet tall and 50 pounds. Later human species were taller and smarter, and were among the first to use stone tools and control fire, allowing them to cook food and survive harsh climates. Neanderthals and Cro-Magnon man were also early human species that inhabited Europe and used more advanced tools and techniques like fishing, clothing, and cave paintings.
Pre-history & Early Man [PDF]
Early humans originated in Africa around 2 million years ago. Fossil evidence shows that the earliest humans were Australopithecus who lived around 4 million years ago. Later hominids such as Homo Habilis and Homo Erectus developed increased brain size and the ability to walk upright. During the Ice Age starting 2.6 million years ago, early humans migrated from Africa across land bridges as glaciers advanced and retreated. Modern humans, Homo Sapiens, emerged around 200,000 years ago and Homo Sapiens Sapiens developed around 50,000 years ago. The development of language, tools, fire, and other cultural adaptations enabled humans to spread across the globe. Around 12,
Prehistory
The document discusses the prehistoric period from 2 million years ago until the invention of writing around 3,000 years ago. It is divided into three periods: the Paleolithic, Neolithic, and Metal Ages. During the Paleolithic, humans were nomadic hunter-gatherers who lived in caves or tents. In the Neolithic, humans began farming, domesticating animals, and living in permanent villages near rivers. The Metal Ages saw the discovery and use of metals like copper, bronze, and iron, as well as inventions like the wheel and construction of megalithic monuments.
Homo sapiens
Homo sapiens originated in Africa, likely Ethiopia or Zambia, around 200,000 years ago. They migrated throughout the world and were the first humans. Homo sapiens spent their time gathering plants, hunting animals, and cooking food. They lived in tribes and exchanged goods. Homo sapiens had changing environments and built shelters from branches, leaves, and tree bark. They developed tools from stone, bone, and antlers to hunt, gather food, and craft items.
Unit of Inquiry 4: Where We Are in Place and Time: Early Humans
Hominids first appeared around 3 million years ago in Africa. Early humans like Australopithecus were smaller than modern humans and used tools. Later groups like Homo habilis and Homo erectus were taller and smarter, and Homo erectus was the first to control fire. Neanderthals were also a species of early human. Cro-Magnon man was an advanced early human that lived in Europe around 30,000 years ago and made cave paintings, though the purpose of these paintings remains a mystery.
Early humans
Early humans like Homo habilis and Homo erectus began emerging around 3 million years ago in Africa. They were tool-users and hunters/gatherers. Later groups like Neanderthals and Cro-Magnon man were more advanced, controlling fire, using clothing and shelters, and creating artworks like cave paintings. The ability to control fire allowed early humans to expand across the world, following animal herds during ice age periods when sea levels were lower and land bridges appeared.
Early Humans
Archaeologists study past cultures by analyzing human remains, settlements, fossils, and artifacts found across Africa and other parts of the world. Early humans are thought to have originated in Africa, as the oldest known artifacts, fossils, and human remains have been discovered there, dated to over 4 million years ago using carbon-14 dating. Various early human species like Australopithecus, Homo habilis, Homo erectus, Neanderthals, and Cro-Magnon inhabited Africa and spread to other continents, developing new tools and behaviors over time, such as controlling fire and creating art.
early humans
Hominids first appeared around 3 million years ago, including early humans like Lucy who was discovered in 1974. Early humans were able to stand upright and use tools, distinguishing them from apes. Various human species evolved over millions of years, including Homo erectus who controlled fire, Neanderthals who lived in Europe, and Cro-Magnon man who created cave paintings. Scientists have learned about early humans through fossils and artifacts that provide clues about how different species lived and evolved.

MathCasting is a tool that allows students to create instructional videos called MathCasts using Microsoft OneNote and Jing. Students can speak, write, and record simultaneously to demonstrate their understanding of math concepts. Teachers can use MathCasting for instruction, and students can create their own MathCasts to include representations of manipulatives and real-life applications. Creating MathCasts requires students to internalize concepts, access prior knowledge, plan explanations, and use multiple modalities to explain concepts. This engages more areas of the brain than traditional reading and develops digital literacy and self-directed learning skills.

George Nissen and Larry Griswold invented the modern trampoline in 1936 by adding coiled springs, a frame, and safety mats to create a rebounding device. They went on to found the Griswold-Nissen Trampoline & Tumbling Company. Trampolines are now used in gymnastics, diving, circus acts, and other sports for training purposes. While trampolines provide exercise and fun, they also carry injury risks that have led some medical professionals to advise against their use.

History of farming
Farming originated around 10,000 BC in an area known as the Fertile Crescent. People in this region began deliberately planting seeds from local grasses and grains that they gathered, such as barley and wheat, aided by favorable climate conditions. One of the earliest farming settlements was Catalhoyuk in present-day Turkey. Farming then spread to other parts of the world and involved domesticating animals like goats, sheep and pigs to provide food, fiber and labor. Over time, humans cultivated a wider variety of crops and domesticated additional animals, advancing early agriculture.

Humans evolved from early hominids over millions of years in four main stages: Australopithecines, Homo erectus, Homo neanderthalensis, and Homo sapiens. Early hominids learned to walk upright, use tools, control fire, hunt animals, and eventually farm, which allowed their cultures and intelligence to gradually develop over time as their bodies and brains evolved. Later hominid species grew stronger, developed smaller teeth, wore clothing, built shelters, and lived in family groups near water sources like rivers.

Tools used by early people
Early humans evolved tools to make their lives easier. The first tools, used by Homo habilis around 2 million years ago, were found stones. Later humans developed more advanced tools like hand axes and blades. Tools helped early humans hunt, process food, and protect themselves, driving the evolution to more intelligent species like Homo erectus, Neanderthals, and Cro-Magnon. The development of tools such as farming equipment allowed modern humans to survive and spread throughout the world.

Early humans evolved in Africa over 5 million years ago from forest-dwelling primates. The earliest known hominid is Ardipithecus, which lived 4-5 million years ago. Later hominids included Australopithecus, Homo habilis, Homo erectus, and Homo sapiens. Homo erectus was the first to leave Africa, migrating to Europe and Asia around 1.8 million years ago. Modern humans, Homo sapiens sapiens, evolved in Africa around 200,000 years ago and migrated worldwide by 10,000 BCE, replacing Neanderthals.David l tools
Early humans evolved from apes and separated themselves by making tools, clothing, fire, and developing intelligence. Australopithecus afarensis was the first human but could only stand upright and not make tools. Homo habilis was the first toolmaker, making sharp stone tools. Homo erectus had improved toolmaking skills and was the first to control fire. Neanderthals created advanced stone tools and sewed clothes, while Cro-Magnon people built homes and used advanced projectile weapons like bows and arrows. Modern humans are Homo sapiens sapiens with the most advanced tools and the largest population size.

Homo habilus was the first to create their own tools for hunting and butchering. Homo erectus created more intricate tools and was the first to control fire. Homo sapiens neanderthalensis created pointed spear tips and controlled fire. Homo sapiens cro-magnon invented bows and arrows and tools for hunting large game. Modern humans can create complex tools like guns.
Homo sapiens presentation 6F
Homo sapiens originated in Africa and then spread throughout the world approximately 100,000 years ago. There are two theories for how this occurred - either Homo sapiens developed in Africa and migrated worldwide, or ancestors developed separately into Homo sapiens in different locations. Homo sapiens were able to inhabit all environments due to their omnivorous diet, bipedalism, and ability to use complex tools.

Ancient Greece
Ancient Greece was a civilization that lasted from the 8th to 6th centuries BC to the 600s AD. Society was stratified, with upper, middle, and lower classes. Men were citizens and held public roles, while women were confined to domestic life. Marriage was usually arranged, and divorce was possible. Families were patriarchal, with husbands and fathers in authority. Children were raised communally in Sparta but by mothers in Athens. Education differed by gender and class. The arts, including architecture, sculpture, and music flourished. Religion centered on the Olympian gods and their myths. Festivals honored the gods through processions, sacrifices, and competitions. Upon death, souls went to Hades and bodies received fun

Daily Life in Ancient Greece was divided into many periods and consisted of complex social structures. Citizens had rights not afforded to women, foreigners, or slaves. Family life was patriarchal and centered around the oikos or household. Children were raised communally in Sparta but had more schooling in Athens. Religion heavily influenced all aspects of life and the Greeks believed in many gods and held various festivals in their honor.
Farming inquiry
Farming originated around 8000 BCE in the Fertile Crescent region. The first crops farmed were cereal grains like wheat and barley, as well as pulses and the bottle gourd vegetable. Sheep and goats were among the earliest domesticated animals, as they meet the criteria of being able to be bred and kept in captivity without being aggressive or panicking.
Farming
Farming is believed to have originated around 10,000 years ago in East Africa and the Middle East by First Nations peoples at the end of the Ice Age, according to scientists. The first crops grown were likely wheat and barley, as their seeds are commonly found from that era. Dogs were possibly the first domesticated animals, kept as pets starting 13,000-30,000 years ago, while sheep, goats, cattle and pigs were domesticated for food around 9000-7000 BC.
Inquiry questions
The first farming occurred around 10,000 years ago in areas like China, the fertile crescents of India, Egypt, and Western Asia. The earliest crops grown were wheat, barley, and peas, though the specific crops depended on location. Squash was also grown around this time. The first domesticated animals were dogs, which were used for hunting and protection of human tribes. Dogs evolved from wolves and today there are over 200 purebred dog species.

- 3. Lived 4-1.2 million years ago. Afarensis had the most basic tools. It didn’t know how to make tools but if it found them it would use it. They would use sticks to catch small insects like ants and termites by sticking it into there hill and pulling it out when the ants/termites had grabbed on to it. They would use rocks to crack open nuts and other hard things. They did NOT hunt, only gather fruits and berries. If they found a dead carcass they would eat it. Afarensis did NOT know how to make tools Australopithecus afarensis
- 4. Homo habilis lived 2 to 1.5 million years ago. It used simple tools such as sharp rocks and sticks to hunt. They lived in small packs. It could not control fire but knew how to use it if it found it, but it just usually ate its food raw. Unlike the Afarensis, it would hunt AND gather, not just hunt. They would sometimes use things such large stones that they would sometimes throw at their prey. Would sharpen rocks. They could make them within just a few minutes. Small sharpened rocks were usually used to skin animals after they had killed them, whereas the bigger ones were used for the actual hunt. Homo Habilis
- 5. Lived 1.6-80,000 years ago. Homo Erectus had more tools than the Habilis. They were also more advanced. They had now learned to make fire, which kept them warm and allowed them to cook there food. They would skin animals with sharp rocks to make simple clothes, such as cloaks or blankets. They did NOT use metal tools. They could reconise different angles and how to make them. They had good hand-eye cordination that allowed them to make tools faster and stronger. Had basic axes to scrape and cut meat or wood. They lived and hunted in tribes. Homo Erectus
- 6. Lived 133,000- 32,ooo years ago. Neanderthals were smart, strong, and very advanced. In fact, they were stronger than us. They had tons of tools. They had things such as stone axes, stone knives, spears and harpoons. They could control fire well, allowing them to migrate and survive bitter Europian winters. They could make clothing well with their tools. Homo sapiens Neanderthal
- 7. The Cro-Magnon was also quite smart. It lived 100,000-10,000 years ago. Made tools out of stone, ivory, wood, teeth, and antlers. They could fish with hooks, and could sew with a needle and thread. They invented the bow and arrow and had long range spears. They used sharp axes to cut down trees and make conoes. With new tools they could get more food, with allowed their population to grow. They could make warm clothes to survive the ice ages. Homo Sapiens Cro-Magnon
