Hi Everyone,

It’s incredible to think that we were not the only type of human species in the world … in fact there were at least six more species that existed here on Earth.

Today we explore what happened to the other types of human species, why they became extinct and why we homo sapiens continue to exist.

Illustrations of the different human species based on the following works:
Homo sapien - Paleoartist: Rodolfo Nogueira
Homo habilis - Reconstruction by Cicero Moraes
Homo rudolfensis - Daderot
Homo erectus - Artist: John Gurche. Photo: Chip Clark.
Homo heidelbergensis - Artist: John Gurche. Photo: Chip Clark.
Homo neanderthalensis - Artist: John Gurche. Photo: Chip Clark.
Homo floresiensis - Reconstruction by Cicero Moraes
