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.
Tools of early humans
Early humans began appearing 1.2-4 million years ago and had to create tools to make survival easier. Australopithecus, the earliest known hominoid, lived 4-2 million years ago and used tools scavenged or found to hunt and gather food. Homo habilis, discovered in the 1960s, were the first to create tools and hunt but could not control fire. Homo erectus from 1.8 million years ago were stronger and smarter, able to control fire and make complex tools to hunt African and Asian game. Neanderthals from 400,000 years ago were strong and smart but died off, possibly from disease. Cro-Magnons from 40,000 years ago could

The document discusses the evolution of early human tools from simple found objects like rocks and sticks used by Australopithecus afarensis to more advanced tools created by later hominin species. 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.
Early tools
There were several human species that evolved over time and developed increasingly advanced tools. Australopithecus afarensis from 4-1.2 million years ago used basic tools like rocks and sticks but did not make tools. Homo habilis from 2-1.5 million years ago could make and use sharp stone tools to hunt and gather. Homo erectus from 1.6-80,000 years ago controlled fire, made axes and hunted in tribes. Neanderthals from 133,000-32,000 years ago had advanced stone tools and controlled fire well. Homo sapiens Cro-Magnon from 100,000-10,000 years ago invented sewing, bows and arrows,

The document discusses six types of hominids and the tools they used. Australopithecus afarensis did not make tools but used found rocks and sticks. Homo habilis was the first to make tools like stone weapons. Homo erectus controlled and made fire, hunting with stone axes, knives, and sharpened spears. Homo sapiens neanderthalensis had stone knives, spears, animal skin clothing, and bone tools. Homo sapiens Cro-Magnon created the bow and arrow and had shelters like huts. Homo sapiens sapiens, modern humans, use metals and complex materials to make weapons and houses.
Roscoe food and clothing of early man
The document summarizes the food sources and clothing of early hominids including Australopithecus afarensis, Homo habilis, Homo erectus, Neanderthals, Cro-Magnons, and modern humans. It describes their diets as consisting mostly of fruits, nuts, roots, and scavenged or hunted meat. Their clothing ranged from no clothing in early hominids to animal skins and sewn garments in later species. Modern humans have the greatest diversity of foods and clothing types.
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 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.
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.

- Early humans like Australopithecus afarensis used found tools like sticks and stones to hunt small animals, while Homo habilis made their own tools for scraping, cutting, and chopping.
- Homo erectus were able to make fire and stone tools like spears and traps, and hunted in cooperative groups. Homo sapiens buried their dead and were excellent hunters that slept in caves.
- Cro-Magnons were very skilled, able to kill mammoths and invent bows and arrows. They made paintings, clothes, and jewelry. Modern humans, Homo sapiens sapiens, have lived for the past 10,000 years, developing
Human evaluation
This document describes the key characteristics of several early human ancestors from Ardipithecus ramidus 4.4 million years ago to Homo sapiens (modern humans) from 120,000 years ago, noting their distinguishing physical traits such as brain size and locomotion as well as the time periods and locations where the first fossils were discovered for each species. Overall it traces the evolution of early humans from more chimpanzee-like features to the development of upright walking and increasingly larger brains and sophisticated tool usage.
The culture of early hominids
Hominids first emerged in East Africa around 4 million years ago, classified in the genus Australopithecus. Later hominids like Homo habilis and Homo erectus had larger brains and were the first to use tools. Homo sapiens evolved around 200,000 years ago in Africa and had fully modern human traits, later migrating to Europe and Asia. Theories on modern human origins include a single origin near the East or multiregional evolution in various places.
Adriana Tools From the Early Man
Tools have evolved significantly over time from simple found objects used by early humans to complex manufactured tools used by modern humans. Early humans such as Australopithecus used found objects like sticks and bones as simple tools, while later Homo habilis created sharpened stone tools for hunting and cutting food. Homo erectus developed more complex tools like hand axes and sharpened sticks, and Homo sapiens created projectile weapons like spears and harpoons for hunting as well as basic stone tools. Cro-Magnon humans were more advanced, inventing fishing nets, sewing, painting, and the bow and arrow. Modern humans continue developing new tools using diverse materials and technologies.

(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.
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,

The document discusses how different hominid species developed tools over time to aid survival. Australopithecus afarensis used simple tools like sticks to gather food but did not hunt. Homo habilis were smarter and made tools like sharpened rocks for cutting. Homo erectus controlled fire and made hand axes and traps, allowing them to hunt. Later species such as Homo sapiens Neanderthalensis were skilled hunters and toolmakers, while Homo sapiens developed complex tools, art, fishing, and agriculture.
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.
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.
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.
Mark l tools
This document summarizes the evolution of tool use among early hominid species from Australopithecus to Homo sapiens. It describes how tools progressed from found natural objects to crafted stone and wood tools for hunting and cooking by Homo habilis. Later species like Homo erectus hunted in groups and controlled fire, while Neanderthals advanced toolmaking. Cro-magnons created art and stored food. Modern humans developed agriculture and modern technology using electricity. Tools evolved significantly alongside brain size and behavioral changes in hominids over time.
Evolution of man by Sana Bi Ansari M.Sc. I year.pptx
Man has evolved over millions of years from early primate ancestors like Dryopithecus. Key early human ancestors included Australopithecus, Homo habilis, Homo erectus, and Neanderthals. Anatomical changes that occurred during human evolution include an increase in brain size, the development of bipedalism, a reduction in body hair and development of the chin. Modern humans, Homo sapiens sapiens, emerged around 200,000 years ago in Africa and have continued to evolve culturally with developments like art, agriculture and civilization.
Understanding Our Past
1) Anthropologists study prehistory by examining physical remains and artifacts from early humans and their ancestors. They investigate periods before written records to understand how people lived.
2) Early human ancestors like Ardipithecus ramidus lived 4-5 million years ago in Africa. Australopithecines like Lucy lived 3 million years ago. Homo habilis 2.6 million years ago was the first to make tools.
3) Homo erectus emerged around 2 million years ago, were the first upright walkers, and migrated from Africa to Asia and Europe. Modern humans, Homo sapiens, emerged around 250,000 years ago in Africa and eventually replaced Neanderthals
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.

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.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.
Nickb old tools
1) Tools have been important for hunting, cooking, and ornament making throughout human history. Early humans used found tools like sharpened rocks while later groups like Homo habilis learned to make basic stone tools.
2) Successive groups like Homo erectus, Neanderthals, and Cro-Magnon humans developed more advanced tool-making abilities and invented tools such as fire, blades, axes, bows and arrows, and traps.
3) Modern humans utilized all previously developed tool types and had the most sophisticated hunting tools and cooking implements, such as bows and arrows, knives, and fire for cooking. The development of tools allowed human groups to evolve in their abilities to hunt and survive.
Hominid
This document provides an overview of different hominid species throughout history, including Australopithecines, Homo erectus, Homo neanderthalensis, and early modern Homo sapiens. Australopithecines were early hominids that lived many years ago and walked on all fours. Homo erectus could stand upright but did not know how to control fire. Homo neanderthalensis were able to make fire to keep warm. Many fossils of early modern Homo sapiens have been found, showing they lived on Earth many years ago. Overall, hominids evolved over time to have bigger brains and more advanced skills.
Appearance of early humans
The document summarizes the appearance and traits of early humans from 3.6 million years ago to Homo sapiens sapiens. Early hominids like Australopithecus could stand upright and make tools, had ape-like features but walked on two legs. Homo habilis were the first to use stone tools in Africa. Homo erectus had skills in tool-making and fire, and were similar in size to modern humans. Homo sapiens sapiens had modern human-like skulls and were hunters and gatherers who used advanced stone and bone tools.

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.
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.
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.
