Homo Erectus The Smithsonian Institution S Human Origins Program A reconstruction of Homo erectus - the first known human to walk fully upright An ancient relative of modern humans survived into comparatively recent times in South East Asia, a new study has Homo erectus was taller than Homo habilis, more robust and had a larger brain They developed tool-making further, producing a characteristic hand axe known as the 'Acheulian' Fossils of
Homo Erectus May Have Been Wiped Out By Climate Change Scientists Say H soloensis, the species name initially given to Solo Man, is now considered a misnomer Solo Man actually belongs to a far older human lineage — Homo erectus In many ways, this makes the hominid Many of us look down at our aching knees and curse them — wondering why they seemingly evolved to hurt so much But the human knee has a complex evolutionary history And new research is showing how Homo erectus has long thought to have been the first member of our direct line to leave the African homeland - around 19 million years ago And given that Luzon was only ever accessible by sea Homo erectus, remains of which have been found in Java, Indonesia, and mainland China, tended to have much narrower jawbones and smaller teeth Researchers say that this suggests the robust-jawed
