THE EVOLUTION OF MAN
The evolution of man is an area of study that will never fully be understood, however, evidence has been accumulated to allow us to paste together an idea of what happened in the beginning of time. It allows us to gather an idea of how man progressed to exist in the state in which we see him now. We can see that the evolution of man was directly influenced by his environment. Man’s development directly effected the physical changes that we see. It is apparent through observation that the environmental changes also induced some of the physical changes that man went through. These environmental changes and development slowly refined man’s behavior, as well as his way of life. We also can see how man develops along with the changes in sophistication of the tools he used. We can see that the progression of the tools goes directly with the progression of the evolution of man. As the technology slowly became more advanced, we see how the effect that it has on early man’s development and how those advances made effected the actions and behavior of man. It is those changes in behavior and lifestyle which lead to man’s evolution.
Lucy was found in Hadar Ethiopia and is the name given to a fossil skeleton of a hominid who lived over 3.2 million years ago. Lucy stands as the most complete skeleton known of an early human. She is known to be part of the bipedal primate know as Australopithecus afarensis. Lucy was expected to be twenty five years old and roughly four feet tall. What we know about Australopithecus afarensis is that they walked upright and were able to climb trees. Australopithecus afarensis, like Lucy, had small skulls, small brain cases, projecting faces, large chewing teeth and looked ape-like. Although she did walk upright on two legs, her legs were very short, adapted to climbing, indicating that she may have taken shelter in the trees at night. The proportion of her hands in comparison to her...
