Reaction to Community and Hominid Emergence

Introduction

Among the important questions , if not the most important question of evolution , is whether humans emerged from his most closely related precursor - the primates and , if it can be affirmed that he did so , how did he emerge from his ancestral primate ? Evolutionary theory postulates , based on discovered fossils , that humans evolved from the primates

While studies conducted on fossil discoveries have resulted to divergent interpretations and conclusions as to the factors that caused the emergence of humans , anthropologists are in agreement that

br culture , manifested or expressed in language , symbols and capability to make tools , is the main aspect that distinguishes humans from primates

However , how this distinguishing character emerged so as to elevate humans as a higher level of species from primates , is explained either from a biological or cultural perspective . The article proposes the human organization expressed in the most primitive community called band as an additional and much wider variable in human evolution

The question this will raise is : Are all these factors under discussion adequate to explain the available data relative to human development ' What distinguishes my research or discussion on the subject from that of the above article is the inclusion of two-dimensional factors of space and time with emphasis on the time dimension as a neglected variable in explaining human evolution whereas the article under study considers only the space dimension data . Thus the fundamental assertion of this reaction is that , discussions on the...
