This is the scale to how the up-right man became who he is

I can see a similar curve in the spine of this early human Australopithecus africanus, who walked upright in a way very similar to modern humans. The size and broad shape of the hip bones of Homo erectus are similar to a modern human's, showing that this early human species had given up climbing for walking.

H. erectus lived between approximately 2 million to 400,000 years ago and is the first known primate to use significant tools and walk upright. The researchers say H. erectus is the only species they looked at that appears to have often crunched and chewed on foods, such as tough meat and crisp root vegetables.

Homo erectus was once thought to have first evolved from an earlier human ancestor, known as Homo habilis, somewhere in East Africa. It was thought that H. erectus then spread out to inhabit South Africa, parts of Europe (Spain and Italy), the Caucasus, India, China, and Indonesia

The earliest fossils of anatomically modern humans are from the Middle Paleolithic,about 200,000 years ago such as the Omo remains of Ethiopia and the fossils of Herto sometimes classified as Homo sapiens idaltu.

"All of a sudden," says Johanson, "she became a person." It would be another four years before Lucy was officially described. She belonged to a new species called Australopithecus afarensis, and it was clear that she was one of the most important fossils ever discovered

lucy was found by Donald Johanson and Tom Gray on November 24, 1974, at the site of Hadar in Ethiopia. They had taken a Land Rover out that day to map in another locality. After a long, hot morning of mapping and surveying for fossils, they decided to head back to the vehicle.

Lucy is the common name of AL 288-1, several hundred pieces of bone fossils representing 40 percent of the skeleton of a female of the hominid species Australopithecus afarensis . In Ethiopia, the assembly is also known as Dinkinesh, which means "you are marvelous" in the Amharic language.
