When someone says that a human is a homo sapien what are they referring to?

Homo sapiens means wise man, thinking man, rational man, knowing man.It is the species name for us, humans, sometimes referred to as anatomically modern humans or AMH. Our trinomial name is homo sapiens sapiens . The skeleton taxonomy is :-Domain EukaryotaKingdom AnimaliaPhylum Chordata / ( sub P. Vertebrata )Class Mammalia / ( sub C. Theria )Order PrimatesFamily HominidaeGenus HomoSpecies H. sapiens / ( sub S. H.s.sapiens )You can find the full taxonomy on Wikipedia under "homo sapiens"It should be "homo sapiens". It means "wise man" and it's the Latin name of our species - i.e. humans.It combines the Latin word homo (mankind) with the adjective sapiens (wise, sensible, understanding) to describe the modern human race. The implication is that all previous forms of humankind were stupid, which is a completely false idea.It means 'wise man', or 'learned man'.


What are the two words in a scientific name?

The first is the genus, this is always capitalised. The second word is the species name, which is never capitalised. Both words are always written in italics or underlined if handwritten. For example, the species name for humans is Homo sapiens; Homo is the genus name, and sapiens is the species name. Sometimes, a scientific name will contain an additional word at the end, in zoology this will indicate a sub-species; in botany additional terms may refer to sub-species, varieties, hybrid varieties etc.

Are there any sub-species of human beings?

No. All extant humans are of the species Homo sapiens. The variation in modern human DNA is very small (about 0.1%) compared to other species, which suggests that all modern humans descend from a small group that lived about 100,000 years ago. No modern human group has been classified as a sub-species. However, H. neanderthalensis is sometimes classified as a sub species of H. sapiens (H. sapiens neanderthalensis).Several species of humans existed in the past. H. erectus spread out of Africa and into Europe and Asia almost 2 million years ago, long before modern humans evolved from a common ancestor in Africa around 200,000 years ago. H. erectus eventually evolved into other species, such as H. antecessor, H. heidelbergensisand H. neanderthalensis. Modern humans who migrated out of Africa around 70,000 years ago coexisted with H. neanderthalensis and other sister species and my have shared habitat with them for long periods of time. These sister species were extinct by about 33,000 years ago.
