  1. Hominids Jasira Ziglar Kenneth Cortavarria

  2. General Info • Hominins are a group of 20 extinct species (and humans) • All of the remains of Hominids were found in Africa (Kenya, Tanzania, Ethiopia…) • Some “subgroups”: ~ Australopith group: Australopithecus anamensis, Australopithecus africanus ~“Homo” group: Homo erectus, Homo georgicus, Homo habilis, Homo Neaderthalenis

  3. Ardipithecusramidus

  4. Chimpanzees

  5. Neanderthal

  6. Homo Sapiens

  7. Interesting Info • Oldest living Hominid lived 6-7 million years ago (Sahelanthropustchadensis) • Importance to humans: this group helps us to understand how humans came to be • There was once several species of Hominins living at the same time, but the lineage that led to Homo sapiens sapiens lived on, and the rest died
