No, early humans were not all one species. There were multiple species of early humans that existed simultaneously, such as Homo habilis, Homo erectus, and Neanderthals, among others. These different species had distinct features and characteristics.
Human beings are a species, specifically Homo sapiens sapiens. Race is a social construct used to classify people based on physical characteristics, but it does not have a biological basis in terms of defining distinct human groups.
The term "sapiens" in Homo sapiens sapiens means "wise" in Latin. The addition of "sapiens" to "Homo sapiens" distinguishes modern humans from earlier species within the Homo genus, emphasizing our advanced cognitive abilities.
The name "sapiens" in Homo sapiens represents the species level in taxonomy. It is the specific epithet that distinguishes modern humans from other species within the genus Homo.
Some key characteristics that separated Homo sapiens sapiens from other early hominids include the development of complex language, advanced tool-making abilities, capacity for symbolic thought, and social cooperation. These traits likely played a crucial role in our species' ability to adapt to different environments, outcompete other hominids, and eventually become the dominant species on Earth.

Within the genus homo there are several species. The exact number of these is debated but some include: * Homo sapiens sapiens (Our own species, anatomically modern humans) * Homo sapiens * Homo neanderthalis (commonly known as Neanderthal man and sometimes considered to be Homo sapiens neanderthalis) * Homo erectus * Homo habilis
