Cro-Magnon

This is Cro-Magnon. They are the closest to us as all the homo sapiens. They evolved about 40,000 years ago. They also took over Europe and were the first to make art and jewelry. They also had a social standing class order. Scientists know this because they found burial sights and some Cro-Magnons had jewelry and other material things as others did not.

Neanderthals

This is a Neanderthal. They lived only 200,000-30,000 years ago. They were much like we are today. They were thought to have religious beliefs because they buried their dead and had funeral like celebrations. They cared for their family and friends and were language capable. They also made more advanced tools.
The Neanderthal is often seen as a hunched over cave man. But this is not how they really were. they walked upright just like us. Thats just the stereotypical visual of a Neanderthal.

Homo Sapiens

This is Homo Sapien. Homo Sapiens lived 300,000 years ago. They were relatively close to modern humans.

Homo Erectus

This is Homo Erectus. It lived about 1.5 million years ago and was the first to migrate from Africa. They also were the first to domesticate fire and to make clothing. They also might have had a language estblished. Scientists think this because they could tell that they had organized hunts.

This was a big turn for the humans. It was the step bellow modern humans. Except I think there brains were less deveolped. I think this because there were signs that the humans may have been cannibals. In todays day and age we know that this is wrong. Maybe thats what seperates us from the cave men. We have a sense of right and wrong.

Homo Habilis

This is Homo Habilis. Homo Habilis was called Handy Man. This was because he was the first tool makers. They made uni-facial tools. It lived 2 million years ago and was thought to have a brain size of a modern two year old.
Which when you think about it is pretty outstanding. Imagine a two year old, surviving and making tools. It seems vague and impossible.

Lucy

This is Lucy. She was founded by Donald Johnson. Lucy is a Hominid. She was the first mammal to walk on two legs. She lived about 3.5 million years ago. Lucy is what is called a Australopithicine.
I'm a Christian, but I do find it hard to believe that some greater being just poofed us here. Look around, evolution is everywhere. It's not just humans. We can tell that evolution exsists because of recent changes in animals.
