Now that is quite tricky, because there wasn't really a species between us and homo erectus-not in ancestral terms, anyway. One species that was our more direct ancestor that lived around the time of erectus would be Homo heidelbergensis, who was the direct ancestor of Homo sapiens and Homo neanderthalensis, better known as the Neanderthal.
Yes. All modern humans are Homo sapiens.
They didn't. We, modern humans, are homo sapiens sapiens.
First, the Australopithecus Afarensis was first. Then, the Homo habilis. Next, the Homo erectus. Then, the Homo sapiens Neanderthalensis. Last, (Modern humans) Homo sapiens Sapiens.
Homo Erectus
The first humans were called Australopithecus afferensis, then homo-habilis, homo-erectus, homo-sapien neanderthalensis, and the homo-sapien sapien.
Homo erectus were animals, just as we are. Animals are the group of organisms descended from the first self-motivating heterotroph multicellular eukaryotic organisms. This includes insects, fish, molluscs, snails, reptiles, birds, and mammals, including modern humans and their primate precursors, such as Homo erectus.
its homo erectus and it means man who stands, homo means man and erectus mean stand up straight hence they were the first humans to stand up straight
Some early humans were called homo erectus, homo habilus and Neanderthal Man.
