Three main theory of evolution

Lamarkism

Lamarck is remembered for his belief in the inheritability of acquired character. He is Credited for stating for the first time that evolution is a gradual process and it’s a general fact covering all forms of life.

Darwinism

In his book “The Origin Of the Species” 1859. Charles Darwin postulated that human evolution has occurred through the process of natural selection.

This theory postulates that human evolution proceeds principally as a result of the interaction between five indispensable process.

Five indispensable process of neo darwinism

Stages of human evolution

This genus which means oak wood apes live in Africa, China, India and Europe in densely forested tropical lowlands. The members might have been predominantly herbivorous.

Fossil remains were found in the open grassland in Pungab, India. Fossil evidence indicates a hominid status and adaptation including robust jaw, thickened tooth enamel shorter canines, upright posture and the use of hands for food and defense.

This genus is the immediate forerunner of the genus Homo. The first fossil of this genus was discovered by Raymund Dart at Taung, a limestone quarry site in South Africa. They walk erect, lived on the ground and probably used stone as weapon to hunt small animals. They weight 60-90 pound and were 4 feet tall.

Genus Homo

This genus is the first species of the genus Homo. Lived from about 2.4 to 1.4 million years ago in South and East Africa. It makes tools from stone . Loius Leakey its name discovered name it “handy man” or “Tool making man”

The fossil of the homo erectus were discovered by Eugene Dubois in 1891 on Java, Indonesia. Pithecanthropus erectus means “erect ape man”

Sapiens means “wise” or “intelligent

The first skeletal remains was found in Europe and were name Cro-Magnon.
