The early hominids of Africa were similar to other hominids in terms of overall anatomical features, however, there were differences between the early hominids of Africa and other hominids, such as those found in Asia and other parts of the world. world as discovered in fossil remains. Not only were there differences in anatomical structures, but there were also obvious differences in their culture and in the environmental factors of their lives, particularly as the species evolved. Below I will compare some of the differences between early African hominids and other hominids, discuss how they might have lived from day to day, and show how the evidence supports these findings. When we look at Africa, we think that the first H . erectus appears to have evolved here. This theory developed based on the fact that all previous hominids that appeared were also in Africa, so it stands to reason that the evolution of these early hominids into H. erectus would have occurred in the same location . That being said, evidence also shows that after H. erectus got its start in Africa, it quickly migrated to other parts of the world, as fossil remains have also been discovered in Europe and Asia roughly at the same period. And it is through the migration of H. erectus that the fossil remains show the greatest physical differences from one another. Anatomically, H. African erectus had a brain and brain case of similar size to previous hominids, however, smaller than "average" skulls were found, showing that there were African H. erectus with smaller skulls that could be female (indicating sexual dimorphism). ) or children/young people, the skulls also had fairly large brow ridges with thin skull bones (typical of H. erectus from East Africa, ve...... middle of paper .... ..nce of much greater use and variety of tools, including those believed to be specifically designed for skinning meat, hunting, and even woodworking. There is no doubt that Neanderthals were users of tools. tools, hunters, fishermen, and they even made "jewelry" from shells and bones for decoration being debated with some experts who believe that Neanderthals were not capable of speech and others. claiming that they were. So daily life in Africa with H. erectus was probably a lot like camping for us modern humans, but without the luxury of a sleeping bag tent and pre-packaged food. very primitive family life in which you had to find food and prepare it, avoid being hunted by predators yourself and be able or not to warm yourself near a fire. And, more than likely, you wouldn't have sung songs around a campfire because you couldn't speak..
