Wie starb der Homo erectus aus?
Verdacht von Archäologen Homo erectus starb aus, weil er zu faul war. Er gilt als erster Frühmensch, der Feuer benutzte, wie moderne Menschen laufen konnte und jagen ging. Trotzdem ist der Homo erectus ausgestorben – offenbar, weil er immer den Weg des geringsten Widerstands wählte.
Wie sprach der frühmensch?
Die Verständigung per Sprache hat sich möglicherweise schon vor 350.000 Jahren entwickelt. Forscher fanden anhand von fossilen Schädeln heraus, dass schon Frühmenschen ein Gehör besaßen, das genau auf die Frequenzen menschlicher Sprache abgestimmt war.
What are the similarities between Homo erectus and modern humans?
You can see a similar curve in the spine of this early human, Australopithecus africanus, who walked upright in a way very similar to modern humans. The size and broad shape of the hip bones of Homo erectus are similar to a modern human’s, showing that this early human species had given up climbing for walking.

When did hominids become bipedal?
It’s not until the emergence of H. erectus 1.89 million years ago that hominids grew tall, evolved long legs and became completely terrestrial creatures. While the timeline of the evolution of upright walking is well understood, why hominids took their first bipedal steps is not.
Is Homo ergaster the ancestor of Homo erectus?
Reed, et al. shows Homo ergaster as the ancestor of Homo erectus; then it is ergaster, or a variety of ergaster, or perhaps a hybrid of ergaster and erectus, which develops into species that evolve into archaic and then modern humans and then out of Africa.
