  1. People now the think the figure of 20,000 is wrong!!!

    People are thinking 70,000 to100,000 or longer!!!

    WAhoo!!!


  2. - According to the history, the first human (the body, face, walk, and the brain's volume same like us) is called Homo sapiens in Paleolithic-um

    - According to the bible,  God created the first human is Adam and then He created Eve

  3. Generally, anthropologists say history began when humans started keeping written records. This is purely a move for purposes of definition. History in the middle east seems to have begun about 5000 years ago (give or take depending on the region), but if we found records dating to 20,000 years ago, then that would become the beginning of history. In the U.S., prehistory is considered to have lasted pretty much up until European contact. So it's not written in stone, and just serves as a conceptual marker, mostly.

  4. Here, meet our relatives:

    Australopithecus ramidus - 5 to 4 million years ago

    Australopithecus afarensis - 4 to 2.7 million years ago

    Australopithecus africanus - 3.0 to 2.0 million years ago

    Australopithecus robustus - 2.2 to 1.0 million years ago

    Homo habilis - 2.2 to 1.6 million years ago

    Homo erectus - 2 to 0.4 million years ago

    Homo sapiens - 400,000 to 200,000 years ago

    Homo sapiens neandertalensis - 200,000 to 30,000 years ago

    Homo sapiens sapiens - 130,000 years ago to present

    Before them, between 5 and 10 million years ago, there was our common ancestor with the apes. This is what is romantically called "The missing link".

    Pick a time that you consider human history began, and go from there. I myself would choose homo habilus, as that was when we started to use tools and adapt the environment to suit ourselves, like wearing protective clothes for warmth etc.

  5. I believe that human history, as most people define it, began with the advent of writing. There's not really a way to accurately record and preserve any kind of "history" before that. I think that was 6000 or so years ago.

    Modern humans as we know them were alive and well more than a hundred thousand years before that, we just have no real "history" other than what we can deduce from their leavings.

  6. believe that the eigth ice age is coming and can only estimate when the continent of the first mass was one land and mu was its was its name i believe, it was as Edgar Cayce said was indistinguishable in part from the animal world as each was capable of inseminating the others of any species, could different but there has to be a beginning to be here at the dreadful end

  7. Charles Darwin Theory:  From Monkey

    Bible :  Adam and Eve

    My concept: We are not fully human yet!! Still we are barbaric
