Science, Technology & the Future | Rick Barker - Paleoanthropology: Early Human Evolution @scfu | Uploaded July 2019 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
Rick Barker discusses early homonid evolution - comparing some theories about how our ancestors looked and behaved, and compares this to modern monkeys.

Paleoanthropology or paleo-anthropology is a branch of archaeology with a human focus, which seeks to understand the early development of anatomically modern humans, a process known as hominization, through the reconstruction of evolutionary kinship lines within the family Hominidae, working from biological evidence (such as petrified skeletal remains, bone fragments, footprints) and cultural evidence (such as stone tools, artifacts, and settlement localities).
