9. Anatomy of Homo Sapiens Homo sapiens lived in Africa and around the world about 100,000 years ago. These bipedal (walking on 2 legs) also had language and ability to make and use complex tools out of stone. Early Homo sapiens where hunted-gathers and lived in the east part of Africa (Kenya ,Ethiopia, Chad). Homo sapiens from different from other primates had a brain size brain size was at least 1400 cc. They are the closet ancestor to us (homo sapiens sapiens ) with a bigger brain they had the capacity to make more complex tools (such as harpoons or flutes). Move more made the homo sapiens to spread around the world. Shorter arms and longer arms, less hair and bodies to resist longer the heat than other animals, and more human traits than primate traits.
10. Tools Cro-Magnon Civilization During the Cro-Magnon civilization (40,000 years ago) Homo Sapiens used different raw materials, such as rock, wood, bone or antler to produce tools for making clothing, engravings, and sculptures.
11. Aurignacian Tools Aurignacian stone tools were used by Homo Sapiens about 40,000 years ago. They have been found in La Ferrassie, France . They are sharp-edged blade tools designed for cutting and scraping stone. Also, ivory, bone, and antler were used to create knives, scrapers, and spear points. Some of them were jewellery.
12. Diversification of Tools The tools that Homo Sapiens used 20,000 years ago were the products of a more developed human civilization. People enjoyed decorated tools, musical instruments and cave paintings. They had beads, clay figurines and ivory carvings of humans and animals. 20,000 years ago
13. Magdalenian Tools Magdalenian tools were used 15,000 years ago. They have been found in Le Morin, France. They were tools used by reindeer hunters during the last Ice Age. These tools included various instruments, such as bone needles, harpoons, and microliths (small blades 1-3 cm). reindeer hunters during the last Ice Age used them This is the bone needles This is a harpoon This is a microliths
14. Miscellaneous Facts There are many things we can learn about Homo Sapiens by researching on what they eat or their habitats, but did you ever look to see all the other things that there isn’t a category for. Well this is what you are about to learn… http://www.toonpool.com/cartoons/caveman%20homo%20sapiens%20today_65645
