Time- 300,000 years ago
Date- 1758
Place- Africa are world wide
Significant- Child’s skulls have cuts
- they also specialized toold and made a variety of smaller, more complex, refined and specialized tools including composite stone tools, fishhooks and harpoons, bows and arrows, spear throwers and sewing needles.
Key features- had bodies with short, slender trunks and long limbs.
-largest brains relative to body size, most intelligent
-These body proportions are an adaptation for surviving in tropical regions due to the greater proportion of skin surface available for cooling the body.
How they survived- stayed close to the coast not infiltrating extreme environments until around 15,000 years ago.
- Gathered together, hunted together
-Adapted to new environments easily, competed with and outlasted other humanoid species

Time & Place: 3.85-2.95 million years ago in Eastern Africa (Ethiopia, Kenya, Tanzania)
Key Features: 35% of modern human brain size, face proportions (flat nose, strongly projected jaw), body that stood on two legs.
How they Survived: Hunting, they ate fruit, seeds, and raw meat. Lived mainly in trees.
Why are they significant?: first to be bipedal, used sharp rocks, horns and teeth from animals as tools.

Species in this group of early humans walked upright on a regular basis but still climbed trees
1. Live in  South Africa about 3.3-2.1 million years ago
2.They survived as  the first hunters
3.They ate fruits,plants,insects,and eggs, first to leave trees and live on the ground
4. First species to be fully bipedal

Homo habilis

Nickname: Handy Man

Where Lived: Eastern and Southern Africa

When Lived: 2.4 million to 1.4 million years ago

Height: average 3 ft 4 in - 4 ft 5 in (100 - 135 cm)

Weight: average 70 lbs (32 kg)
Significance: this species was thought to represent the first maker of stone tools

# data[].attributes.body
* An extinct species of archaic humans that lived throughout  most of the Pleistocene geological epidemic epoch
Their height is aroung 185cm (6ft1)
*Direct ancestors of Homo Sapiens
*An Asian/African species or subspecies
*Places: Northern, Eastern, Southern Africa, Western Asia, and East Asia
*Survival skills: Tall bodies and large brains require a lot of energy on a regular basis. Eating meat and other types of protein can easily be digested. (Proteins give them energy to survive)
Features:
- Ability to walk, possibly run long distances, first to leave Africa and spread into Asia (first to live on 2 different continents)
