Based on these details, the homo sapiens had survived with these resilient and inventive techniques for an extremely long time. However, there were still other species that were less resilient and not as significant as the homo sapiens who were also able to adapt to their environments and survive up until today.

Angel Song, Karen Martinez-Detail 1 Post 2 of 5 https://padlet.com/k8miller4/ojlhpehmsficw0fi/wish/829562904 One significant change in the Homo Sapiens’ anatomical functions compared to the Neanderthals were changes in the skull size and the skeleton minus the skull. This evidence suggests that the Homo Sapiens’ brain size differed from the Neanderthals. Also, the Homo Sapiens had a smaller skeleton and brain than the Neanderthals. The skeleton of Homo Sapiens is very light because of the relations from the earlier species and due to deficiency of getting used to the freezing weather. This skeleton is called a postcranial skeleton, which caused Homo Sapiens to have short limbs, along with a large width of rib cages and hips. As a result, having a postcranial skeleton is mainly because of the sudden change from warmer weather to cold weather. This gives evidence that Homo Sapiens lived in tropical atmospheres before relocating to other places worldwide because of their weak bones in their postcranial skeleton. They could adapt to their environment, so they could quickly adapt as the world changed.

Unlike the Neanderthals, modern humans used specialized tools to extract a wide variety of food during warm or cold swings. In addition they possessed social chains in which they could trade resources not available in their area. This allowed them to eat no matter what the climate was. On the other hand Neanderthals relied mainly on hunting, and during harsh weather fluctuations their inability to gather small amounts of plant material may have led to there downfall.(ancient man website)]]> 2020-10-14 17:45:47 UTC https://padlet.com/k8miller4/ojlhpehmsficw0fi/wish/829656786 Were earlier forms of humans smarter than modern humans or not?

Homo sapiens are the most advanced according to the graph. They have advanced languages, has ability to learn and remember, can imagine and plan, and has the ability to adapt to different climates. Homo sapiens evolved to be smarter and because of that, they survived the longest. Homo Sapiens advanced in their capability to adapt to their climates.

Angel Song, Karen Martinez-Detail 3 Post 4 of 5 https://padlet.com/k8miller4/ojlhpehmsficw0fi/wish/829663790 Homo Sapiens and the Neanderthals' bodily structures were different, so the Homo Sapiens had to figure out another way than the Neanderthals to survive. The Neanderthals' bodies were muscular and strong, whereas the Homo Sapiens had long limbs and had tiny muscles. The Neanderthals were good at hunting big animals because their body was formed (being muscular would help hunt big animals). However, the Homo Sapiens weren't able to hunt big animals like the Neanderthals, because their body wasn't fit for it. So the Homo Sapiens adapted to their circumstances and developed excellent social skills to share knowledge with other people to make it easy to survive. Studies show that the Homo Sapiens had a larger cerebellum compared to the Neanderthals. The cerebellum is a part of the brain that controls social relationships, planning skills, adapting skills, etc. Because the Homo Sapiens evolved to have a bigger cerebellum than the Neanderthals, some people say that that might have been why Homo Sapiens survived when the Neanderthals did not.

The Homo Sapiens weren’t able to hunt big animals like the Neanderthals. Their frail body did not support the big movements used in hunting those animals. The Homo Sapiens had the ability to adapt to new environments when the Neanderthals did not. The Homo Sapiens decided to live a different way. For example, they realized that not everything had to depend on hunting, they could gather and harvest, too. Because they adapted to meet their bodily circumstances, they were able to figure out new things and stay alive without going extinct like the Neanderthals.

The Homo Sapiens acquired the social skills and language skills to properly communicate with others. They soon were able to make better tools and learn from each other. Homo Sapiens continued to develop skills and advance tools. From comparing tools from the past times to the Homo sapiens tools, they became more refined and specialized. Even while the amount resources grew and developed, they continuously made new tools. These tools varied from stone tools, fish hooks, bows and arrows, spears, and sewing needles. Making tools and innovating them, created a method of communication skills. These skills were important because now they were able to defend, look for food, and hunt together. They cooperated with one another, and that gave them an advantage.

When early men constantly gave signs to communicate over time they recognized these signs of grunts, screams, whines, etc. For an example when an Early man sees deers he would grunt. People would constantly make these noises too give out signs. Over time hunters soon learned to acknowledge warning signs for bad weather and such. Soon they grunt too symbolize bad weather and deers coming.

Colors were symbols by which they identified themselves and their group.

Homo Sapiens also had developed languages called the Proto-sinaitic alphabet or script. The languages that they spoke were more advanced than the other species. Homo Sapiens were able to learn and remember events and more. That’s why they were able to have better developed languages. Being able to communicate and think in a group is a skill that the other species didn’t have. Homo Sapiens also had the ability to imagine and plan they could think and cooperate well together. They were more creative than the other species. Passing down education and ways to make tools from generation to generation they had less difficulties with surviving. Acting as one large group, they hunted and defended themselves with more efficiency. They were also flexible and therefore adapted better. Today Homo Sapiens or Modern humans are the only hominin that are still surviving. Gestures, sounds, and drawings were vastly important as a use to Homo Sapiens. Homo Sapiens grew a large transformation over time. When it came to homo Sapiens ability to think and understand it had evolved a lot as well as their ways to think and remember. Homo Sapiens expertise to speak enhanced. They cultivated the ability to plan and use clues for strategic problems. They obtained the use of social skills needed for a group to think and act as one. These new developments have impacted the ability to adapt to different climates.

(Kelly J., Norah U., Reed K., and April K.) Slide 4/4* https://padlet.com/k8miller4/ojlhpehmsficw0fi/wish/829800883 The reason why early humans used cave art is still unknown. Experts think the cave art was drawn to symbolize the importance of their beliefs and religions. They also believed that the cave art was used to “record the group’s history in hunting.” It was also used to mark symbols with which they identified themselves and their group as. With pigments, our ancestors marked objects to draw stories or to honor the animals for the food that they hunted and killed to eat.

They soon created the first Chinese symbols on tortoise shells and on small rocks.

They spotted a right proximal ulna, forearm bone, skull bone, then a femur, some ribs, a pelvis, and the lower jaw. This identified quickly as a hominid. While they celebrated, they called her Lucy after the Beatles song “Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds”. Evidence suggests that the Hadar material, as well as fossils from elsewhere in East Africa from the same time period, belong to a single, sexually dimorphic species known as Australopithecus afarensis. At Hadar, the size difference is very clear, the males are larger and the females are smaller. Lucy clearly fits into the smaller group, making it evident that she is a female.

(Ariana, Euna, Kailyn, Kaylee) 3 of 3 https://padlet.com/k8miller4/ojlhpehmsficw0fi/wish/829817103 Homo Sapiens were able to survive longer because they were able to learn new skills and techniques over time. By learning new language skills , learning from experiences, and being able to learn and remember things, they were able to carry that skill over to modern days, learning better and clearer.

We find these sources of information by marks of ancient tombs, old calendars, and maps. Mostly surrounding something with any clue or something written on. These resources gave the ability for historians to make predictions of the past.
