  3. 8. - The transitional species between H. Habilis and H.Erectus
  4. 11. - Theory that suggests that modern humans evolved from African populations, which left Africa ~200,000 y/o. Replacing regional populations of H. Erectus

  1. 1. - The Multiregional theory suggests that H. Sapiens evolved directly from this Hominid, where as Out of Africa theory does not.
  2. 3. - More sophisticated, finely worked scrapers, spear tips, and axe heads. Edges re-shaped and attached to other materials. Required skill to make and techniques taught and learned.
  3. 5. - Hominids survived selection pressures and used/uses upper paleolithic tools.
  4. 6. - More complex tools made of various materials such as antlers, wood and bones
  5. 7. - First Hominid to have the ability to control and manipulate fire
  6. 9. - Tear drop shaped tools used by H.Erectus
  7. 10. - Theory that suggests populations evolved rather isolated, with some interbreeding, evolving in parallel to each other.
  8. 17. - Tools that were first discovered and used by H. Habilis
