200.000 years ago is the approximate starting era of what is known as the modern man, or Homo Sapiens if you like.

Skeletons dated that far back are showing signs of evolution towards "ours" .

What is the human species thought to have evolved 400000 years ago?

Homo sapiens


What is the earliest existence of man?

The first member of our genus, Homo, was Homo habilis, which evolved 2.3 million years ago. The first anatomically modern Homo sapiens, our species, evolved 200,000 years ago.


Name one species from which man has evolved?

Homo sapiens apparently evolved from versions of Homo erectus and Homo heidelbergensis.


What is the oldest genus-species ever found?

Homo habilis evolved in Africa around two million years ago!


When did people live compared to dinosaurs?

Dinosaurs existed from 225 million years ago to 65.5 million years ago. The earliest species belonging to the genus Homo, the genus that humans belong to, was Homo habilis, which lived 2.3 million years ago. Our species, Homo sapiens, evolved only 200,000 years ago.


Did humans evolve from humans?

Modern humans, the subspecies Homo sapiens sapiens, evolved from Homo heidelbergensis, our common ancestor with Neanderthals; neither group evolved from the other, but are instead "sibling" species.All humans, the genus Homo and the species it includes, evolved from the initial Homo habilis, itself evolving from a non-Homo australopithecine species, apparently Kenyanthropus platyops but other possibilities occur.


Humans evolved in what era?

The first homonids (animals from the same genus as people) evolved about 3 million years ago. Our species, Homo sapiens, evolved about 200,000 years ago. All of the time since the dinosaurs died out 65.5 million years ago is called the Cenozoic Era, thus humans evolved in the Cenozoic.


When and where the man first found on earth?

The human line goes back through our own species, Homo sapiens, then Homo erectus and Homo habilis. Earlier hominid species, going back as far as seven million years, could also be included in the definition of 'man' if we wish.Homo erectus and Homo habilis definitely evolved in Africa. Based on the evidence of fossils, most scholars believe modern humans, Homo sapiens, also evolved in Africa, but there is a 'multi-regional' hypothesis that evolution of our species occurred in Africa and Asia at much the same time, around two hundred thousand years ago. The earliest Homo sapiensfossils in Europe date back approximately 35 thousand years.


When was man first on earth?

AnswerThis depends on your definition of 'man'. The very first modern humans, Homo sapiens, are known to have evolved over tow hundred thousand years ago. Our immediate ancestors, Homo erectus, evolved at least 1.6 million years ago. The earliest known member of the Homo genus, homo habilis, evolved around 2 million years ago and could be considered the first 'man'. Our most distant hominid ancestors are believed to have evolved around seven million years ago.


In evolutionary terms why did Homo sapiens develop the most advanced Neocortex?

There was a rush of many homo species in the period homo sapiens came alive, all of them similar, but different in some ways, and after a while homo sapiens were the ones that got it right and got the superior neocortex compared to the other species of homo, and that's why they died out and we didn't, so in other words, the reason we have an advanced neocortex is because we evolved in a different way than the other homo species, so there is no reason why we got it, we just evolved in that way, and as a result we survived with the superior brain


What was the first person on earth?

The first person on earth was prophet Adam (a.s) and i think he is still alive.Answer:It depends on your definition of person. If you mean our species (H. Sapiens), anatomically modern humans evolved from archaic H. Sapiens in Africa in the Middle Paleolithic about 200,000 years ago. If you include the archaic predecessors (Homo heidelbergensis, Homo rhodesiensis, Homo neanderthalensis and sometimes Homo antecessor.) this could be extended further back to 500,000 years ago.All of these evolved from our common ancestor with the apes.


Why do you think Homo Sapiens replaced all other Homo species around the world even though they emerged much later?

yes the homo-sapiens were much better adapted to life on earth and evolved much faster then all other homo species.*read Charles Darwin theory of evoloution.
