ORIGINS OF HUMANITY
According to both scientist and historians, millions of years ago, the first humans emerged in the area now called Africa.
FYI
• At that time, the planet EARTH, was one land mass.
• This, “super-continent” eventually broke apart into different
• It’s called Pangaea.
ORIGINS OF HUMANITY
The findings of the oldest human remains were located in the savannah region in Africa.
This is why the original name of this place was called
ALKEBULAN (mother of mankind)
ORIGINS OF HUMANITY
• THESE BONES WHICH WERE FOUND IN AFRICA, WERE EXAMINED, AND GIVEN THE NAME OF LUCY .
• TO DATE, THEY ARE THE OLDEST BONES ON RECORD.
ORIGINS OF HUMANITY
So, yes, that means ALL PEOPLE, regardless of race or color, are ORIGINALLY from AFRICA.
THE MOTHER LAND
AFRICA is called the MOTHERLAND because it is the place where humanity is believed to have started.
ORIGINS OF HUMANITY
DISCLAIMER :The following lesson does not necessarily reflect the beliefs or views of Mr. Willoughby or Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools. Due to federal and state law, “the separation of church and state” applies. Students will be educated on the historical aspect of evolution and the Creation ; not as a means of persuasion or influence. The teacher’s opinion will not be stated nor implied during instruction.
EVOLUTION
The scientific method that suggests modern-day humans can trace their lineage to the primitive (ape-like) species.
AUSTRALOPITHECUS
• The very 1st human-like species •walked on two feet• had small brains.• Long, strong arms built for
climbing trees
HOMO HABILIS
• The 2nd human-like species that lived in Africa
• Credited for being the first species to use stones for tools and building.
• Brains were a little larger than the australopithecus species and faces did not stick out as much.
HOMO ERECTUS
• The 3rd “human-like” species that lived in Africa.
• Known for migrating outside of Africa.
• First to use fire .
• Brains were a little larger than the homo habilis.
HOMO SAPIEN
• The “scientific term” used for modern humans.
• Skulls mostly resemble that of human beings.
EVOLVE !!!!!
AS YOU SEE, ACORDING TO EVOLUTION, WE HAVE COME A LONG WAY….
WELL…
SOME OF US HAVE ANYWAY !!!!!
WHAT ABOUT YOU !!!!!
HAVE YOU EVOLVED OR ADAPTED TO THE CHANGING TIMES
OR ARE YOU STILL IN THE MINDSET OF THE EARLIEST FORMS OF HUMANS.
RESULTS?
Hopefully, you are evolving way past the earlier forms of mankind and are adapting to the changes in society?
CREATION
• Those who do not support the theory of evolution, believe in the idea of Creation.
• Creation is the belief that a supernatural, supreme being created man in His likeness.
OUT OF AFRICA THEORY
According to evolution, the evolving of the australopithecus to the homo sapien occurred inside of Africa and eventually migrated to other parts of the world.
EVE HYPOTHESIS
According to the Creation, all humans are descendents of the woman Eve, who is from Africa. Scientist also back this theory with DNA evidence that appears in all of us.
