Because these were stone age hunter/gatherers who lived in caves and rock shelters. They didn't have villages.

Addendum:

Consider for a moment that each of the early hominids named lived very long ago.

  • Java Man - 1.8 million years ago
  • Cro-Magnon - 35,000 years ago
  • Neanderthals - 30,000 to 50,000 years ago

That being established consider also that with the level of technology modern man has achieved, and the level of development of our cities and culture today, that if every human being on this planet were to suddenly drop dead today, that roughly 1,000 years from that moment there would be almost no visible evidence on the surface of the planet to indicate we were ever here.

That being said, consider that there are currently about 7 billion people on the planet currently, and that early hominid populations probably did not exceed a couple hundred thousand at best. If the natural healing processes of planet Earth could effectively hide the evidence that many who left behind absolutely massive glass, plastic, metal, and concrete cities in a mere thousand years, it is absolutely amazing that we have found as much as has been found of our predecessors.
