Who were the ancestors of human beings?
The oldest human ancestor
Where do people come from?
Why did humans appear on Earth? Throughout the ages, in the eternal years, why do human beings inhabit the vast and boundless earth?
Where did humans come from? Where does the ultimate origin come from?
For such a question? Scientists haven't given an accurate answer? Even the question of where human beings originated, comes down to an unsolved mystery.
According to known archaeologists, it is very likely that humans appeared in the Eocene period of the New Era, which dates back about 28 million years.
At that time, our human ancestors still inhabited the primordial and dense forests and belonged to the primate class. It's not big, but it's very smart.
The original human ancestors, that is, primates, actually had many species, and many species were active in various corners of the earth and multiplied on the earth.
At that time, our ancestors, because of their small size, were reptiles living in trees and lived by eating wild fruits from trees.
Twenty-eight million years ago, in the midst of prehistoric antiquity, the earth was full of dangers, the flesh was weak and predatory, and the primates of our human ancestors had to flee to the trees in order to escape the hunting of large prehistoric creatures.
Because of their small size, they are very suitable for perching in trees, so life in the woods gives them the ability to reproduce, and through the environment on which they live, they slowly evolve, evolve, and transform from primitive low to high.
It was finally what we were as we were.
Ape man with full body hair
However, with the passage of time, the earth migrated over a long period of time, dating back to 5.8 million years ago, and after more than 20 million years of evolution, primates slowly degenerated and climbed in the direction of the advanced, human ancestors, both wisdom. Still weight, the size has become a lot bigger.
Perhaps for reasons of evolution, the ancestors of mankind, at this time, could come to the ground to walk, because with wisdom, as well as weapons, were not afraid of danger on land.
At this time, the ancestors of human beings began to show extraordinary abilities in this period, that is, they could hunt prey with weapons, they could line up through wisdom, and they could walk upright through their feet.
This is the Tugan Ape Man, and it is also a species that evolved and evolved from the gorilla metamorphosis about eight million years ago.
Regarding the emergence of the Tugan ape man, it is not the evolution of the times, the emergence of the Tugan ape man, is not entirely driven by the trend of the times, according to archaeologists, the reason why the Tugan ape man will go out of the big forest and come to the land to survive, it is likely to be caused by environmental changes.
Why?
Scenes of apes hunting, gregarious living
Is there any basis for this?
Not to mention, archaeologists dare to infer that there are actually certain research discoveries.
More than 5 million years ago, after the appearance of the Tugan ape man on the earth, the earth's natural system was seriously hit, possibly affected by the weather drought, the weather and climate on the earth at that time, abnormally dry, the temperature was as high as seventy or eighty degrees, causing the collapse of the earth's ecosystem, a large number of animals and plants perished in this disaster, the forest also suffered an unprecedented blow, and countless trees withered and died.
The Tugan Ape People originally regarded the forest as their homeland, but they did not expect that this great natural disaster would destroy their homeland hard, and they had no choice but to go out of the big forest and come to the land to survive at this time.
The old environment has been lost, but the new environment has not yet fully adapted, so the Tugan ape man has to challenge the cruel nature in order to survive.
The loss of the natural patronage of the Great Forest made it impossible for the Tugan Ape Man to climb to the trees to escape the attacks of prehistoric creatures, and the land was the era of ancient beasts, full of killing machines.
Compete with wild beasts for food
In order to survive, the Tugan ape man had to face it and fight heroically and fearlessly against the cruel nature.
For this reason, when the Gugen ape people came to live on land, in order to obtain more food and living space, at this time, they formed a team, lived together, and hunted together.
Thus, they had a common group, and by virtue of their numerical superiority, they could avoid the threat of being hunted by ancient beasts.
You know, more than 5 million years ago, the earth's land, or in ancient times, countless prehistoric beasts appeared on land, they are huge, most of them are carnivorous creatures.
They roamed prehistoric land and ate almost everything, and the Tugan ape man was no exception.
Therefore, in order to resist these ancient beasts, the Tugan ape people had to live in groups and hunt in groups, which greatly avoided danger and living space.
After the Tugan Ape Man, after another 3 million years on earth, the Archaeopteryx appeared, which is a newly evolved species following the Tugan Ape Man and a branch of the new ancient human ancestor after the Tugan Ape Man.
Unlike the Tugan ape man, although the intelligence of the Archaeopteryx is similar to that of the Tugan ape man, the appearance of the archaeopteryx is closer to the human than the Tugan ape man.
Use stone tools
About 1.3 million years have passed, about 3.2 million years ago, the earth at this time is a blank, there is no historical record period, the oldest human being, the formation period, was born in this period, the earliest human ape man, on the stage of history.
Ape people, and early and late two kinds, the earliest ape people appeared in the period from 320 years ago to 2.2 million years ago, after about a million years, in this time period, called early ape people.
Late ape man, first appeared 2.2 million years ago, until 1.7 million years ago, after about half a million years, in just half a million years, is called late ape man.
The appearance of the ape man has opened a new page for the mystery of the ancient origin of our human beings.
Early ape people, intelligence is not developed, but the limbs, gradually resemble human, and have five features.
Late ape people, with a certain degree of intelligence, slowly evolved into the appearance of human beings in the early stages, and their signs, which evolved more thoroughly than the early ape people.
And early ape people, and late ape people, after more than one hundred and fifty years of evolutionary baptism, have a certain wisdom, in this long period of time, early apes and late ape people, adapted to land life, through the way of living in groups, greatly reduced the threat of being hunted by prehistoric beasts.
Wisdom forms and begins to expand
In order to obtain more food sources, early apes and late apes hunt in groups, which can greatly capture more prey with the advantage of numbers, so as to gain more room for expansion, so that they will not starve to death due to lack of food because of lack of food.
The emergence of nominees is another new breed that appeared on earth, that is, early ape people, and late ape people, and another branch of human ancestors.
Like apes, there are two kinds of homo sapiens, early and late, and early homo sapiens appeared in the 500,000-year period from 1.7 million years ago to 1.2 million years ago.
Late capable people appeared 1.2 million years ago, up to 600,000 years ago, around the time period of 600,000 years, known as early able people, and late able people.
The emergence of the nominee implies that our ancestors, at this time, have completely got rid of the original wisdom, and the nominee is more advanced than the ape-man, whether it is hunting or wisdom, it is far better than the ape-man.
After the capable man, that is, 600,000 years later, the earth ushered in another reform and evolution of human history, and finally the ancestors of this group of human beings stepped onto the stage of history, and multiplied in all corners of the earth, igniting the spark of stars, which is Homo sapiens.
The emergence of Homo sapiens is more intelligent than that of apes and capable people, whether it is wisdom or hunting, it is better than apes and capable people.
After Homo sapiens appeared on Earth, they invented weapons, and through their own wisdom, they could create stone tools, including building houses and hunting traps, which allowed them to expand more living space and provide more powerful conditions for the reproduction of future generations.
