Human Evolution And The Stages
Studies about evolution began with the journey of Charles Darwin on his famous ship, the Beagle, to the Galapagos Islands. The difference in the beaks of birds on the island created a flash of scientific derivation of the principle of evolution inside Darwin’s brain. He assumed that the beaks were modified to facilitate the consumption of food based on diversity. This led to his famous theory of evolution, otherwise known as Darwin’s theory. He enacted that every species has a common origin, and his theory of survival suggests that throughout life, only the fittest would survive and all others would become extinct. His theory created a furore among believers and scientists of that age. According to his theory, humans have undergone many changes to reach this state. They are still changing to survive in the world of tight competition. The first humans evolved from monkeys, to be more precise, must have evolved from apes or chimpanzees. From the scientific view, the stages of development can be started from early apes known as Nakalipithecus, with time, chimpanzees and gorillas splitting from this ancient ape. Hominini also split up from this. The first humans to walk on two legs were the Ardipithecus, who underwent evolution and began to use stone tools. These early humans are classified as Australopithecus Then to homo habilis ( fossils were found from many places ), homo erectus ( they can stand erect) and then changed to become modern man known as homo sapiens. Neanderthals are another subspecies of archaic humans who lived in Eurasia until about 40 thousand years ago. The fossils and remains of these archaic humans were found mainly in Africa, Australia, and Eurasia
