Pre history paragraph
A paragraph of pre-historic origins
Have you ever wondered how the human race progressed through time? Our late ancestors Homo Habilis, Cro Magnon, and the Neanderthals survived by manipulating the world around them to there favor. Homo Habilis was called the "handy man" for good reason H. Habilis created the first uni facial tools which aided them in hunting and and skinning there prey. Cro Magnons developed a way in mixing together crushed up plants and then mixing the resulting powder with a liquid to create paint after which the used to paint pictures on cave walls. Neanderthals contributed religion to our society burying the dead for instance was started by the neanderthals.
Our ancestors the late Homo Habilis were the first race to integrate technology in to our daily life. Homo Habilis created the uni facial tools by chipping a side of a rock to create a single sided blade made from rock. Homo Erectus domesticated fire into tool used every day. H. Erectus used fire to cook food and to light cave at night. Homo Erectus created clothing by taking animal hides and making them into leather after ward they would chew the leather to soften it up.
Our ancestors the Cro Magnons people that lived thousands of years ago some how developed the knowledge to create an use paint. Cro Magnons ground plants into fine powders then mixed the resulting powder with a liquid like animal fat or blood to create paint. Cro Magnons burned animal fat to create stone age lanterns. On some level Cro Magnons understood that if a painting was far enough into a cave the more likely the painting would survive the years. What they didn't know is that the art work would last this long. Cro Magnons would crawl through tight crevasses deep into a cave to find a suitable area to paint.
The first race of man to institute religion in to society was the Neanderthals. One example of this is that the Neanderthals buried there dead loved ones. Scientist speculate that the Neanderthals also visited there dead. This has been suggested because scientists have found that Neanderthals apparently mark the graves of the dead. It has been found that the Neanderthals practiced defleshing or sacrificial rituals after which they possibly indulged in cannibalism.
The Homo Habilis survived by taking what they had sticks and stones and changing it to give them the advantage. The Cro Magnons used what they had around them to make works of art depicting various things like what they typically hunted for food with out these paintings man of to day could only estimate what the humans of pre history hunted or attempted to hunt. The Neanderthals might have realized that without some kind of force to drive people mankind wouldn't progress very far. The human race progressed through time by creating technology to aid us in our daily lives, man created art to depict life as they saw it, and we created some thing larger to believe in than our selves.
