EDITORS COMMENTS
In this illustration by renowned artist Angus McBride, we witness a pivotal moment in human evolution: Homo habilis, our early hominin ancestor, engaged in a hunter-gatherer lifestyle around 1.6 to 2 million years ago in East Africa. Here, Homo habilis is depicted using tools to take down an antelope, a significant step towards the development of advanced hunting techniques. Homo habilis, meaning "handy man" in Latin, was a bipedal primate, marking the first known hominin to walk upright. This eutherian, placental mammal, belonging to the family Hominini, was part of the larger order Primates, and the superorder Anthropoidea. Homo habilis is classified within the infraorder Simiiformes and the parvorder Anthropoidea, and the suborder Haplorrhini. The antelope, an even-toed ungulate, is a member of the Artiodactyla order, which includes hoofed mammals. Specifically, it belongs to the Bovidae family, characterized by their horns, and the subfamily Bovinae, which includes cattle, bison, and antelopes. This illustration offers a glimpse into the daily life of our early hominin ancestors, revealing their behavior and interactions with the natural world. The use of tools for hunting was a crucial development in human evolution, enabling our ancestors to access new food sources and expand their territories. Angus McBride's masterful artwork not only showcases the intriguing history of Homo habilis but also highlights the deep connection between humans and the animal kingdom.
