Due to effective tools, larger body size, and metabolic demands of the brain associated with H. erectus, most researchers postulate that, by the time H. erectus had evolved, meat constituted an important part of the human diet. Hunting habits in H. erectus still are unclear; researchers think that individuals in the species still were scavenging but, also, caught small animals and fish. Some sites, such as in Torralba and Ambrona in Spain, show evidence of large-game hunting by controlling stampedes. These sites reveal evidence that a stampede of large, elephant-like animals was forced off a cliff. Hunting like this produced large amounts of meat that could be shared by many members of the group. An abundance of Acheulean tools littering in the sites shows that butchering of animals was performed on site and smaller, more manageable pieces of meat and bones or other animal materials were carried away.
The two subspecies are Homo sapiens idaltu (which is thought extinct) and Homo sapiens sapiens. Some sources show Neanderthals (Homo neanderthalensis) as a subspecies (Homo sapiens neanderthalensis).Similarly, the discovered specimens of the Homo rhodesiensis species have been classified by some as a subspecies (Homo sapiens rhodesiensis), but these last two subspecies classifications are not widely accepted by scientists.

That depends on the time period. We are Homo sapiens 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.
Yes, the scientific name for modern humans is Homo sapiens. This classification is based on the Linnaean system of binomial nomenclature, where "Homo" is the genus and "sapiens" is the species.
Homo sapiens(Modern humans are Homo sapiens sapiens, other subspecies include Homo sapiens idaltu.)
