PDF-(READ)-Modern Humans: Their African Origin and Global Dispersal

Modern Humans is about the most recentand perhaps the most importantphase of human evolution the appearance of anatomically modern people Homo sapiens in Africa less than a quarter of a million years ago and their subsequent spread throughout the world Most of the features that render living human beings unique among all forms of life evolved or developed with Homo sapiens and in Modern Humans John F Hoffecker argues that humans represent a major transition in evolution with respect to the storage transmission and translation of information as well as a quantum leap in livingsystem complexityModern Humans synthesizes data from genetics including the rapidly growing body of ancient DNA the human fossil record and archaeology relating to the African origins and global dispersal of anatomically modern people The book begins by placing humans into the broad context of the evolution of life emphasizing the fundamental role of genetic and nongenetic forms of information in living systems and how changes in information are tied to major transitions in evolution For more than a hundred thousand years a diverse near modern human population characterized by the retention of some archaic skeletal traits and possibly lacking the full suite of cognitive faculties found in living people occupied the African continent and expanded briefly into the adjoining Arabian Peninsula and Levant The immediate ancestors of all living maternal and paternal lineages possibly emerged from within this population spreading initially throughout Africa before beginning a secondand ultimately globaldispersal no later than 60000 years ago The later chapters of this book recount their rapid expansion into southern Asia and Australia northern Eurasia and Beringia and throughout the Americas.

Introduction.  . Dates/ Daily life: 10,000 years after the ice age ended and the climate got warmer, plant life flourished and larger animals died out, and were replaced by forest dwelling animals along with a new type of Modern Humans. The Modern Humans made many advances in hunting and gathering. They were able to find out where the big game came from, and so they soon sheltered near the creatures and began hunting and farming. Their daily lives involved hunting, planting, gathering, and making homes. (1). Scenedesmus. . dimorphus. UCSD. Shovon. Mandal. Nathan . Schoepp. Jonathan Shurin. Steven Mayfield. Michael . Burkart.
