The similarities and differences in the genetic and cultural evidence of Homo sapiens and Neanderthals suggest both interbreeding and distinct evolutionary paths. The genetic evidence shows interbreeding between the two groups, while archaeological evidence indicates differences in tool use, behavior, and adaptation to their environments. These contrasting stories highlight the complexity of hominid evolution and the diverse ways in which different species of hominids adapted and interacted with each other.
Yes, several species of hominids existed before Homo sapiens sapiens, including Homo neanderthalensis (Neanderthals), Homo erectus, and Homo habilis. These hominids were our evolutionary ancestors and lived at different points in history before the appearance of modern humans.
Homo sapiens sapiens, anatomically modern humans, are believed to be the first hominids to have developed speech. This ability likely evolved around 300,000 years ago. Other hominids, such as Neanderthals, also had the anatomical structures necessary for speech but the extent of their linguistic capabilities is still debated among researchers.
No, the first hominids to create tools were actually the ancestors of both Neanderthals and Homo sapiens. The earliest evidence of tool-making dates back to around 2.6 million years ago, attributed to the species Homo habilis. Neanderthals emerged much later, around 400,000 years ago, and also developed advanced tool-making techniques.
Some other hominids that coexisted with humans in ancient times include Neanderthals, Denisovans, and Homo floresiensis. These hominids had their own distinct characteristics and lived in different regions around the world.
They were known as Homo Neanderthalis, or the Neanderthals. They actually coexisted with modern humans for a little while but died out quickly after Homo sapiensarrived. There are several theories suggesting why this occured.

Yes, our official scientific name is Homo Sapiens. We are sapiens of the Homo genus.Yes, according to Binomial nomenclature, humans are Homo sapiens. In the past there were humans who weren't Homo sapiens. They belonged to other species in genus Homo. Their gradual evolution led to Homo sapiens, that is us.

Since we, homo sapiens, are hominids, hominids have not ended.
They developed in a different way. In a way where their bodies could develop without there brain
Neanderthals
there skull in different shape, legs are diffferent
Homo sapiens and Neanderthals were two distinct species of the Homo genus. Neanderthals had a more robust build and different skull anatomy compared to Homo sapiens. They also had distinct cultural practices and lived in separate regions, with Neanderthals primarily found in Europe and Homo sapiens in Africa.
Hominids are a taxonomic family that includes modern humans (Homo sapiens) and their closest extinct relatives, such as Neanderthals and Denisovans. They are characterized by bipedal locomotion, large brains, and tool use.
