Early Hominids was the use of fire. As the early hominids moved from tropics into colder regions, they needed to adjust to the new climate conditions that were cold. Homo Erectus was the first to discover fires. This was important because they needed it to alive, they also would start cooking animals on it for better food.
-
Around 600,000 the first spears were invented. The invention of stone-tipped spears was a significant point in human evolution, allowing our ancestors to kill animals more efficiently and have more regular access to meat, which they would have needed to make them grow and become smarter.
-
Homo Sapiens Sapiens was the second group that descended from homo sapiens. They were the first that took the physical appearance we have today. They spread out of Africa to other parts of the world around 100,000 years ago, replacing populations of earlier hominids in the region of Europe and Asia. Homo Sapiens Sapiens then took out the rest of the Neanderthals, with tools and clothes, making us the main group of living people.

The most recent ice age was 100,000 B.C and it ended around 8,000 B.C, because of this catastrophic event, ice sheets began melting which covered large amounts of Europe, Asia, and North America. The sea levels went down which cause amounts of land to show, allowing humans to migrate across bridges that had not existed before. It did cause a serious threat though making it crucial for humans to live and adapt.
-
This is when Homo Sapiens Sapiens moved out of Africa. This proves that humans migrated out of Africa. They did this because they needed food to eat, which means they needed to kill animals, they also used them to make clothes. Eventually, they killed the majority of the animals and had to find somewhere else to go, so they migrated from Africa.
-
Super Volcano eruption that happened in South East Asia. It leads to the Earth covered in ash and killed plant and food resources. Due to the limited resources, it caused humans to migrate in search of new area and food. The event lasted 6-10 years long. It made humans leave Africa.
-
The creation of Bows and arrows allowed our ancestors to hunt and kill more efficiently, allowing them to kill from a safer distance.
-
It was a land bridge that crossed the land of Asia to North America. It was a common route for human migration, the humans used it a lot. It impacted human migration because it was easier for humans to migrate from land to land, making exploration way easier to find new land and animals.
-
The invention of agriculture is where hunting and gathering slows down and systematic agriculture grows. The Neolithic revolution started around 10,000 BCE. Because humans started farming, and cities and civilizations started to grow.
-
This is a major event for humans, it was the first major city-funded in 9600 BCE. It was important because lots of humans meet each other humans, where they could trade, farm, and communicate.
