THEME: Process of Hominization and Evolution of Human Beings
EXPECTED TIME: 120 Minutes
BASIC COMPETENCY STANDARD: Analyzes the central aspects of the process of
humanization and technological development that occurred during prehistory, to explain the
transformations of the environment.
DBA: Analyze the central aspects of the process of hominization and technological development
data during prehistory, to explain the transformations of the environment.
EVIDENCE OF LEARNING: Differentiate the physiological and anatomical characteristics present
in Australopithecus, Homo habilis, Homo erectus, Homo neanderthalensis and Homo sapiens
humans, recognizing the factors that influenced these changes.

2. CONCEPTUAL CONSTRUCTION:
HOMINIZATION
The word hominization is used in two senses: the first refers to the evolution of the
human species and the other refers to the differentiation between the human species and others
primates. Like other living beings, humans have evolved from others.
ancient species.
If we look closely, among all the animals, humans and apes are the most similar, both
in the shape of the skull as well as in the physical; also, in other smaller characteristics such as the
lack of tail.
ORIGIN AND EVOLUTION OF MAN
The history of human beings is very extensive, being a long journey that they have had to go through.
our ancestors to evolve into what we are today. The human being is the result
of centuries and centuries of species evolution, without which Homo sapiens would not exist.
ORIGIN OF THE HUMAN BEING
Theorigin of the human beingit can be searched for many centuries as a consequence of a slow and
long process of changes. It should be taken into account that, just like all living beings, animals and
Plants, for example, humans come from the simplest creatures in history.
planet whose evolution has led to the evolution of our species.
Advancing a little further in time, it is believed that human beings come from the anthropoids, that is
to say, of the great monkeys. Scholars believe that 8 million years ago there was an ancestor
common between the anthropoids and our species because both groups share
very similar characteristics.
Some time later, the first hominid primates appeared, that is, a group of primates.
characterized by their bipedal position and standing upright. This class of primates is considered as
ancestors of human beings, being the first species to possess such a human characteristic
how the upright position and bipedal walking are.
Therefore, we can say that the origin of human beings is, like that of all living beings, that of the
first bacteria of our planet. But the first ancestors in which we see characteristics
Common, the anthropoids are to a lesser extent and the hominids to a greater extent.
The evolution of man: all the species of our ancestors
To continue with this lesson on the origin and evolution of man summary, we must talk
about thedifferent ancestral speciesof the human being that have been evolving until reaching the
homo sapiens. In the beginning, the ancestors of humans have few similar qualities.
Australopithecus
They are considered the first hominids of our planet and, therefore, ancestors.
of the human being. The biggest difference between these species and other primates of the same
time is its upright position, its ability to move bipedally and the possession of a
jaw similar to ours.
TheAustralopithecusthey dominated their territory for millions of years, until a
a series of events made them evolve into two types of species. The Paranthropus,
who based their diet on the intake of vegetables, and the Homos, which had
a meat-based diet. Of the two species, we are much more interested in the one from the
Homos, being our ancestors.
Handy man
One of the first Homos, inhabiting the planet about 2.4 million
years. It is characterized by being able to create simple stone tools, for a
cranial enlargement compared to Australopithecus and for being able to walk in a way
biped much better than its predecessors.
Homo rudolfensis
A species so similar to Homo habilis that many scholars consider that
they are actually the same species, inhabiting in similar times on the planet. They
difference of Homo habilis in a flatter face and in the presence of canines more
big.
Upright man
This species was a descendant of Homo habilis, living between 1.8 million
300,000 years ago. Homo erectus was able to leave Africa, crossing to
other continents like Europe. It was characterized by being able to create
much more complex instruments than those of Homo habilis. It was also a
of the first species of Homo to socialize with other beings of its kind
class.
Homo neanderthalis
The known asNeanderthals, being one of the most well-known species
by the people. It is believed that it could be a descendant of Homo erectus. This
species was characterized by a great ability for creation of
tools and other items that the previous species were not capable of
to manufacture.
Homo sapiens
All these species have been evolving, each time having more qualities.
similar to ours, and after millions of years they managed to evolve
until becoming our species, theHomo sapiensThe Homo sapiens
they were able to spread across all continents, being much more
more skilled than the previous species and creating tools that even the
Neanderthals were unable to manufacture.
