WORLD HISTORY

Detailed explanation-1: -All people living today belong to the species Homo sapiens. We evolved only relatively recently but with complex culture and technology have been able to spread throughout the world and occupy a range of different environments.

Detailed explanation-2: -When I drew up a family tree covering the last one million years of human evolution in 2003, it contained only four species: Homo sapiens (us, modern humans), H. neanderthalensis (the Neanderthals), H. heidelbergensis (a supposedly ancestral species), and H. erectus (an even more ancient and primitive species).

Detailed explanation-3: -H. s. sapiens is attributed to “Linnaeus (1758)” by the taxonomic Principle of Coordination. During the 19th to mid-20th century, it was common practice to classify the major divisions of extant H. sapiens as subspecies, following Linnaeus (1758), who had recognized H. s. americanus, H. s.

Detailed explanation-4: -sapiens have distinctive “modern” physical characteristics: a large rounded braincase, lack of a brow-ridge, a chin (even in infancy) and a narrow pelvis compared to other species in the Homo genus. But early H. sapiens may not have had all the same features that modern H. sapiens do, Stringer said.

Detailed explanation-5: -The modern human race is one interbreeding species: homo Sapiens. If, according to the Bible, the sin of Adam has been imputed to all mankind, then mankind constitutes this single interbreeding species. It then follows that Adam must have been the first member of the homo Sapiens species.
