Artwork of the stages in human evolution
Human evolution. Illustration showing stages in the evolution of humans. At left, proconsul (23-15 million years ago) is depicted hypothetically as an African ape with both primitive and advanced features. From it Australopithecus afarensis (>4- 2.5 Myr BP) evolved and displayed a bipedal, upright gait walking on two legs. Homo habilis (2.5 Myr BP) was truly human (" homo" ) resembling Australopithecus but also used stone tools. About 1.5 Myr BP Homo erectus (at centre) appeared in Africa, used fire, wooden tools, and migrated from Africa into Eurasia. Homo neanderthalensis (200, 000 years BP) lived in Europe and Middle East and was closely related to modern humans (right)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the artwork depicting the stages in human evolution. It provides a visual representation of our remarkable journey from ancient times to modern humans. On the left, we see a hypothetical depiction of proconsul, an African ape that existed approximately 23-15 million years ago. This creature exhibits both primitive and advanced characteristics, offering insights into our evolutionary past. Moving forward in time, Australopithecus afarensis emerges (>4-2.5 Myr BP), displaying a significant development - a bipedal, upright gait walking on two legs. This pivotal adaptation paved the way for Homo habilis (2.5 Myr BP), who closely resembled Australopithecus but also demonstrated tool usage with stone tools. Around 1.5 million years ago, Homo erectus takes center stage as they appear in Africa and exhibit advancements such as fire utilization and wooden tools. Notably, this species migrates from Africa into Eurasia, expanding their influence across continents. Lastly, we encounter Homo neanderthalensis (200,000 years BP) living in Europe and the Middle East - closely related to modern humans on the right side of this artwork display. Their presence signifies an important chapter in our history as they share similarities with us while possessing distinct traits unique to their lineage. This thought-provoking illustration beautifully captures humanity's complex evolutionary path and serves as a testament to our ever-evolving nature throughout millions of years of existence.
