Ancient man 2024, May

Archaeologists are constantly making adjustments to the age of Homo sapiens, despite the fact that this is not at all like the orthodox from science

A group of scientists led by Emmanuel Milo of the University of Quebec in Montreal has denied the theory that humans have stopped evolving

In the photo: Skull and brain of a human and a chimpanzee monkey. Brain - the most voracious device in the body. It claims the lion's share of energy consumption, whether you are a mouse or a human

American scientists, together with the staff of the University of Oxford, came to the conclusion that mothers who experience stress at home, at work or in their personal lives are more likely to have girls

Burial of the Neanderthals shows that they practiced funeral rituals and possessed symbolic thinking long before modern humans

A few days ago, a book by anthropologist and archaeologist Timothy Taylor, "Artificial Monkey", was published in the UK, in which the scientist puts forward a rather controversial but interesting concept

They walked like people, were of the same height and build. But their huge heads and children's faces set them apart from the ancient inhabitants of South Africa. They did not come from another planet, did not return from the distant future

I found paradise! It existed on Earth 4.5 million years ago in Northeast Africa. And the lucky ones who lived there were the ancestors of the Australopithecus

Thousands of fragments of Bronze Age artifacts have been found by British archaeologists on the islet of Keros (Aegean Sea). When scientists first came across this treasure, their delight knew no bounds, but soon archaeological joy gave way to bewilderment

Where did people come from on Earth? It would seem that the answer to this question is known to everyone, because scientists have provided sufficient evidence of the theory of evolution, which says that man descended from a monkey

The origin of man - forbidden artifacts It is amazing that people as sophisticated as we think we are do not even know who they really are

As reported in one of the scientific publications, experts in anthropology of South Africa analyzed the remains found in one of the caves located near Johannesburg, on the basis of which they described a new species of man

Currently, there is an open confrontation between evolutionists in the scientific community

In one of the burials in South Africa, archaeologists have found 15 partially preserved skeletons. According to scientists, these remains may belong to a new species of our ancestors, reports Reuters

Geneticists at Oxford University have shown that the domestication of wolves (later becoming dogs) took place in parallel in Eastern and Western Eurasia. Moreover, these processes took place autonomously, and only much later the ancient dogs "united"

People have long found bones of ancient animals and tools of primitive man's labor in the earth. It was believed that they stayed there since the time of the Great Flood described in the Bible

For political news, crime chronicles and climatic changes, we somehow do not pay attention to the amazing scientific sensations. But in vain! Last Wednesday, March 21, at the Institute of Ecology and Evolution named after A.N

"The Hobbit" or Homo floresiensis Anthropologists have long been a fierce debate over the remains of miniature people who lived about 15 thousand years ago on an Indonesian island

The miniature hominins that lived on the Indonesian island of Flores about 15 thousand years ago were refused to be considered relatives of Homo sapiens. Research by French scientists provides new evidence of the uniqueness of the Flores hobbits

An international team of scientists has opened a new page in the debate about the "man of flores" - fossil hominin, whose remains were discovered in 2003 in Indonesia (Flores Island, Liang Bua Cave)

The researchers concluded that there was a dwarf people on the islands of Indonesia, representatives of which still live today. Scientists have come to the conclusion that the hobbits actually existed before

When a corpse is found at a crime scene, forensic experts examine the contents of its pockets, stomach, take a blood test, that is, collect the so-called "material evidence". But if the crime was quite many thousands of years ago, what then? Nothing

An international collaboration of anthropologists led by Lee Berger of the University of Whitewatersrand in South Africa, based on a large number of remains found in a cave near Johannesburg, described a new species of man

Modern Indians and African native hunters sleep as much as we do, so our problem may not be so much chronic sleep deprivation as sleep quality

Duke University scientists have conducted a new study that showed that people sleep an average of 7 hours a day. This is 2 times less than, for example, the sleep of pygmy lemurs, and some primates generally sleep 17 hours a day

The remains of a possibly previously unknown species of man who lived on the territory of modern China about 15-14 thousand years ago were discovered by scientists in the territory of the Red Deer caves, follows from an article in PLoS One

According to scientific information, there is no evidence that the ancient people would have used their own kind for food on an ongoing basis

The harsh landscape that formed millions of years ago in East and South Africa under the influence of constant volcanic eruptions and tectonic shifts may be the reason that our ancestors became upright

Susana Carvalho from the University of Cambridge (UK), Tetsuro Matsuzawa from the University of Kyoto (Japan) and their colleagues tried to establish the origin of bipedalism (walking on two legs) by observing how chimpanzees compete for food

Based on the analysis of genetic information, scientists stated that traces of three interspecific crosses were found in the genome of human ancestors: with Neanderthals, Denisovans, as well as another species still unknown to science

American geneticist Ryan Bolender is studying the DNA of extinct people. Genetic scientist from the University of the American State of Texas Ryan Bolender discovered in the genome of modern Melanesians traces of DNA of a previously unknown species of people

People - the most successful primates on the planet, but our body will not give the Grand Prix for good design

Until now, the question of the origin of man remains unclear. The version that as a result of long-term use of the forelimbs, the monkey developed a brain and turned into a human, turned out to be not very successful

Sinanthropus, otherwise - Peking man, one of the varieties of Homo erectus, is generally considered to be a dead-end branch of primitive fossil people. But is everything in this matter so simple

Australopithecines sediba, considered today as prime candidates for a "lost link" in human evolution, are actually closer to Australopithecines than to the genus Homo, paleontologists said at a conference of the American Association of Anthropologists

The find belongs to the historical period 10-15 years ago. Earlier it was believed that by this time only a species of Homo sapiens lived on Earth. Its early representatives disappeared

The study of ancient artifacts found in the southern regions of Russia allowed scientists to establish that people inhabited this territory a million years earlier than previously thought
