What else can I help you with?
Were all early humans one species?
No, there were many different prehuman species both at different times and living at the same time. Even as late as the last ice ages there were two different species of what could be called "modern humans" living at the same time: Homo Sapiens Neanderthalis and Homo Sapiens Sapiens. Finally the Homo Sapiens Neanderthalis went extinct, leaving only our species Homo Sapiens Sapiens.
Did homo sapiens and homo erectus live at the same time?
The oldest examples of Homo Sapiens is from the Omo remains, presumably dating back to 195,000 in Ethiopia. It was another 60,000 years until Homo Sapiens remains become prolific and visible in other parts of the world. This supports the "out of Africa" theory that Homo Sapiens, like many of the other hominid species evolved in Africa and spread out from there. Homo Erectus is mostly found in other parts of the world. There is no clear consensus within the Palaeoanthropology community whether Homo Erectus is a direct link to Homo Sapiens or whether Homo Sapiens came from within a different line that existed at the same time in Africa. There were many different hominid species that existed during this time frame, and indications are that it may be the most diverse period of hominid specie existence in the earth's history. To date, Homo Sapiens is the only known hominid with a high forehead, flat face, and thin, flat brows. It resembles much more closely Homo Heidelbergensis than Homo Erectus.
What groups lives at the same time as homo sapiens?
Groups that lived at the same time as Homo sapiens include Neanderthals, Denisovans, and Homo erectus. These groups were early human relatives that coexisted with Homo sapiens during different periods of prehistory.
Is the Homo Erectus the same thing as the Homo Ergaster?
Homo erectus and Homo ergaster are two distinct species within the Homo genus. Homo ergaster is considered to be an African species that eventually evolved into Homo erectus, which was more widespread and inhabited both Africa and parts of Asia. Homo ergaster is generally seen as a transitional species between Homo habilis and Homo erectus.
Are homo sapien sapiens the same as homo sapiens?
Yes, homo sapien sapiens is the same as homo sapiens. The term "homo sapien sapiens" specifically refers to modern humans, while "homo sapiens" is the binomial nomenclature for the human species.

Are human beings a species or a race?
Yes, all humans are Homo sapiens. There's some disagreement over whether Neanderthal Man was a subspecies of Homo sapiens (Homo sapiens neanderthalensis) or a separate species (Homo neanderthalensis), but no reputable biologist would disagree that all modern humans are not only the same species but the same subspecies.
Homo sapien sapiens or Homo sapiens sapiens?
It depends on whether you think Neandertals and modern humans were members of the same species, in which case it would be: Homo sapiens sapiens and Homo sapiens neanderthalensis (i.e., they were simply different SUB species) OR whether you think they were two separate species: Homo sapiens and Homo neanderthalensis.Homo = our genus name'sapiens' = is our species name. Note that you ALWAYS write the genus name with the species name because two species might have the same species name. For example, Pan paniscus and Ateles paniscus.
What comes after homo erectus?
Homo sapiens is a largely biological designation and science does not allow issues of spirit to tread upon it. But the world is changing quickly. Issues of the spirit are on the rise and the next stage of human evolution already has some names floating around: homo spiritus homo sanctus It's a change in which either science, or common perception dictates that we do have spirits, and are divine, destined for immortality. http://www.paep.ca/en/CIYL/2002/doc/peck_homo_sapiens.pdf
Should neanderthal man and homo sapiens be considered the same species?
No. They are separate species of humans.
Why are neanderthals sometimes given the name homo sapiens neanderthals?
Neanderthals are given the name Homo sapiens neanderthalensis to show their classification within the same genus Homo as modern humans (Homo sapiens), but as a distinct species. The inclusion of Homo sapiens in their name emphasizes their close evolutionary relationship with modern humans.
Did evolution help other people?
As members of the species, Homo sapiens, we are all creatures of the same evolutionary process, regardless of ethnic background. Scientists say that Homo sapiens evolved from Homo erectus in response to environmental challenges and opportunities. Differences among different ethnic groups are little more than cosmetic and simply helped different races adapt to climatic challenges.
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.
