Homo Erectus lived in Europe, Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Northern Russia.
So, you can imagine what the climate was like for them in many of these places already...
But, the period was different a million years ago.
This was during the GUNZ glacial phase, during which.... well, it was kinda cold.
Throughout most of Homo Erectus's existence there were ice-ages, a period in time where.... Its cold.
Some of the time though, it was normal. Like how it is today, but like I said before, Homo Erectus lived almost everywhere.

Are homo habilis more like homo erectus or more like the australopithecines?
in my opinion homo habilis is more like homo erectus but again that is just my opinion.
What was the environment like when homo habilis were alive?
The earliest Homo sapiens were hunter-gatherers. A few thousand years ago, Homo sapiens began converting to a lifestyle based on farming. Today, some Homo sapiens use computers. After all, modern humans are Homo sapiens.
What does the homo habilis habit look like?
Homo habilis make stone tools. They lives in small groups of people and they hunt together.
When and where did Homo Habilis live?
Homo Habilis is a human being like us and they are one of our ancestor in the past and Homo Hablils is not a scientific name for it
How were homo habilis like us?
They made stone tools.

Why are Australopithecus Homo habilis and Homo erectus are different from Homo sapiens?
. Australopithecus, Homo habilis and Homo erectus are different from Homo sapiens because the Homo sapiens have a larger brain mass and larger skull structure. The modern human today is related to the early homo sapiens but back then they where a lot shorter and more robust than we are today. And the Australopithecus africanus, Homo erectus and Homo habilis where they had ape like brains but human like jaws and were bipedal.
What did Homo habilis look like?
See related links below for an image of Homo habilis. Homo habilis lived 1.9 million years ago to 1.5 million years ago in Africa. Some animals from this time period are zebra, giraffe, elephants, ostrich, fowl and wild hare. They had a face like Australopithecus afarensis, which means that they had a jutting jaw, and a prominent brow, but they had a larger brain than Australopithecus afarensis. They too had long arms, possibly 5ft tall and 100lbs. Homo habilis where scavengers, but they might have been hunters. They used tools from bones and stones. They lived in bands, small groups of people. There is no evidence of spoken language. __________________________________________________________________ Homo Habilis looked remarkably like Homo sapiens ... he lived from 2.3 to 1.4 million years ago, and did not look like a Australopithecus.... they looked like a chimp, but taller, and with less hair. Much less hair, as it was considerably hot 2.3 millions years ago. they had a brain capacity of 600 cm³, and were very smart. One of the most advanced homind's for its time.
What is the difference between homo habilis and homo erectus?
There are many physical and cultural differences between Homo habilis and Homo erectus. Diet: Homo erectus had a much larger proportion of meat in its diet than Homo habilis. Also, H. habilis had stronger teeth so it could eat tougher foods. They both ate their veggies and bone marrow. Fire: H. erectus discovered fire and used it for hunting, fighting, scaring animals, cooking, and making tools, while H. habilis did not have control of fire. Tools: Homo erectus created far more sophisticated stone tools than Homo habilis, and is most well known for its sophisticated biface handaxes. They both had spears and stone tools. Distribution: Homo habilis is only found in Africa, while Homo erectus has a much wider distribution not only Africa but also spreading across areas of Europe and Asia. Morphology: Homo erectus had a proportionally larger brain than Homo habilis, and smaller teeth. See related links below for modern reconstructions of these species physical appearance. Posture: H. erectus walked upright, much like the modern human. However, H. habilis stooped over and did not walk upright. Erectus means upright and habilis means handyman.
What distinguished neanderthals from homo habilis?
Homo Habilis looked very much like a modern ape does today, and lacked many of human traits. For a start, he only stood a around 5 foot tall and he was far from being mentally on a par with modern man. The modern human brain capacity is c.1260 cm3. Homo Habilis's brain capacity was c.800 cm3 or less.Archaeologists attribute this small brain size due to Homo Habilis's lifestyle. He was a gatherer/scavenger. if you think about it, it doesnt take much brain power to sneak up of a bush and pounce on it. Therefore Habilis didn't need all the complex mental capacity needed to hunt. The idea that hunter/gatherers need more complex though processes is borne out by the Neathandrals, who had much larger brains than Homo Habilis and even modern man (How difficult is it to ambush a beef burger anyway?).Homo Habilis lived from approximately at the beginning of the Pleistoceneperiod, but he wasn't the only proto-human around at the time. His rival was Paranthropus_boiseiwhich eventually went extinct. Toward the end of Habilis's period, Homo Sapien (The new kid on the block.) may have encountered him in Africa, as scientists believe that their existence overlapped for around half a million years.
