It started when hominids saw the Egyptian Vulture using rocks to break into eggs and copied them?
It’s sad that those of you that seem to think you know origins keep saying all ancestors came out of Africa. It’s clearly not true. Asia is more likely. Those in Africa had homo Erectus as their ancestor. Most everyone else had way different ancestors that probably came from Asia. Maybe Africa a couple million years before homo Erectus appeared. But they are Africa’s ancestors not all non African’s. Lucy was way more human. Stone tools do help to identify homo.
How did they process the audio? Impressive.
In 1000 years, if humans still exist in that time will look pretty much the same. The only changes will be due to inter breeding and the variants that will come from that. We will still have the exact same features we have today. If anything, we will have changes due to our own meddling. Like surgical mutilation, cybernetics, and ect. As much as I love blade runner, no replicants.
So evolution from ape to human is not possible?
Since she discovered, 50 years ago in Ethiopia, Ethiopian peoples are dying left and right with the conflict inside the country. Specially Ethiopian Orthodox and the Amhara are targeted by this demonic spirit called Lucy.
Our Lord created this world around 7000 years ago and the first human was Adam . We don't know where you guys get these 3.2 million years old stories and try to say the first human was a monkey so called Lucy. As an Ethiopian I do not believe my ancestors are monkeys. - who is the devil girl , her name is Lucy , she is 666
Hello Leisl, I think you should be very proud of what you have already accomplished in your life by getting your PhD. You must have smarts to do that. Events in my life have also kept me from establishing a career in a scientific discipline that I believe would have satisfied me greatly. Nevertheless, I went back to school later in life and now enjoy learning as much as I can about what it is to be human (by taking courses in the social sciences). One of my interests is also in anthropology and I did eventually get my BA in that discipline. Unlike the physical sciences which require calculus and physics courses, I never got the impression that paleoanthropology involved advanced math. If you were born in 1985, you are still quite young and I believe you still have lots of time to pursue a career in paleoanthropology or other area of your choosing. Wishing you nothing but the best.
The idea that only 'scientists' have right to touch these artifacts is sickening. Who the hell do you think you are? These artifacts are the heritage of every human. Look how anthropologists reacted when Native Americans tried to restrict access to Kennewick man. The hubris, presumption, and double standard are breathtaking.
What? This is pure hypothesis on top of hypothesis.
Absolutely ❤️ your work Hello Lucky 🫣
this is exciting!!!
invented a frustrating game! hahaha
Great to hear sessions from this symposium. Many thanks.
What a well-structured, highly-informative presentation. Many, many thanks.
Hail the algorithm!
👍👍👍
felicidades al mr. Ian Tattersall por su trabajo, exposición y trayectoria profesional.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Thank you Professor. You have given me a new and improved name for our species. Homo Sapiens seems a bit egotistical. Using your term CLEVER HANDS translated into Latin seems much more satisfying: Homo Manus callidae. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ Our public library once had o book on the names Of God. It was the size of the Oxford English dictionary. I lifted it and looked through the names and recognized a truth: ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
feel free to believe in the gods, evolution is exhaustively verified
Not humans! I want to know if animals can get more inteeligent over time, way better question
Pleaaaaaase let me know if you found any videos, I'm on the hunt for that EXACT same thing now, since horses and bears are so much bigger than us already, what on earth will they evolve into!!!
Why aren't hyenas driving around in cars and going to the moon then ?? @30:30
Fascinating - everything about this video was great. Professor‘s passion for her subject fantastic, thank you.
Enjoyed the Symposium the topic is one I have been trying to grasp as of late .
When are socalled white people going to tell us where they came from and how they came into being?
I’m SO excited to be there in April for the celebration!
i think what he means is variety. Yes. This will exist too. BUT the avarege human will be different. Just like the average human today is different then from 1000 years ago (longer lifespan, taller, etc). What will it be? No one knows. Because our bodies constantly need to adapt. If it suddenly becomes an advantage to be small (like with many other species on this planet - most species have become smaller over time) then we will have that although for now we became taller. Doesnt mean its always gonna be that way. Humans are also always going to be less "smart" then their bodies. We think we know our bodies, but truth is there are so many complex processes going on inside of us, which we simply will never all understand. Our consious brain is trying really hard but it has limitations. So some things that we now might assume to be an advantage might turn out not to be one. Thats also the beauty of evolution, you never know whats coming. My wish for the present is that society stops putting a box over every human to need to fit in (lookwise, behaviourwise etc). We should understand that variety will always exist and thats good. Beauty ideals for example are very toxic. I wish people in the present would be more educated about these topics, antropology, physiology, etc.
Excellent, thank you for this. Eating the brain is not talked about much, but it is an excellent source of Omega 3 fats which are essential for brain development and health, and we don't need to get it from fish.
Her postcranial remains were found too- she was the most complete Australopithecus found at the time Johansen and his team discovered her in Ethiopia. I read Donald Johansen’s book as a 12 year old girl and wanted to be a paloanthropologist after that. Unfortunately, I do not have the math or science skills that would have required… I could have, however, if my life choices hadn’t been so cruelly and misogynistically robbed from me, have earned a PhD in cultural anthropology. That would have led to a MUCH more fulfilling life than the life I actually live and have lived since the age of 24-I was born in 1985… hope no one else’s life is as disappointing as mine. Sincerely Leisl Schutte
I see the humanity in Lucy's face.
Remember date
So many of you commentators act as if you are much more wise and thoughtful than this scientist, who has a PhD and had been an expert in her field for over a decade. Yet at the same time you admit being lay people. Stop being such know it alls. How about "wondering" about something rather than stating "no, I think xx- she is wrong"? I don't know why I even read YT comment sections of academic videos. It's not like the vast majority of you commenting this way are her peers in any way.
I don't know why the comments are even turned on. All you read is uneducated christian bible thumpers and Islamic fundamentalists trying to tell us they didn't loose this debate in the 1800s....which is quite funny for educated individuals but theres no scientific discussion with these Discovery Institute preachers and Ken Ham goofs that believe in man made preferred versions of invisible supernatural super beings un-intelligently designing the way too narrowly designed birth canal causing billions of spontaneous natural abortions and miscarriages, cancer in newborn, crohns disease, wisdom teeth, hermaphrodites and my favorite ....proteus syndrome. They also have a "God" that isn't very creative....who uses - lazy as he/she/it is - homologies like penis's and vaginas on Humans, Apes, Tigers, Dogs and the such. Their preferred version of invisible supernatural super being also loves voids.... But in the end ...i wished adults would have a interesting conversation....not some dark age or stone age arguments by children degending their santa claus type favorite invisible supernatural super being with old & boring apologetics which they should be doing somewhere else.... As the content uploader i would rigorously delete this Trump University crap and only keep comments that are by serious adults talking about science.
Also consider Dr Lieberman's thesis about endurance hunting - no hunting tools required, only tracking ability aka intelligence and outlasting pray
Just another just so story. Lucy had arboreal adaptations such as long hooked fingers and she ate sedges. She was not our ancestor.....look at the footprints found near Trachilos, Crete, that have been dated at 6.05Ma.....about 3 million years earlier. Assistant Professor Thompson looks good but might as well be a robot. Blah, blah, blah repetition of the same old same old.
I imagine the use of stones as early hammer tools to get to bone marrow actually started with using those "stone hammers" to break open shellfish, which are also very nutritious. I am more inclined to think it was shellfish that gave us an advantage to develop the brain in order to further develop the hand rather than the hand developing to allow the brain to develop. We also have an unusual affinity for water compared to any other hominid.
recreate from cells . would they try that ? dianasours. the apes fossils..
i worry wars delete humans as do diseases and such. also a way of reproduction. gays do still want children. that is good they figure out how. there is cloning of species too now. also there is problems that create child bearing in many. And people dont want children. all this affects human survival. also ignoring open mindness of the world events.
Absence of consistent display of symbolic behaviour by neanderthals? There are quite a few pre-sapien rock art sites in Europe
Yes, the evidence is both inconsistent and sparse. Its foolish to attribute alleged art works to H neanderthalensis via approximate dating; it's not at all resolved in regards to first or earliest presence of H sapiens in Eurasia or Asia.
Dear Dr Jess Thompson, you are 25 YEARS TOO LATE. Read Dr David Horribins book, “The Madness of Adam and Eve.” George.
I'd like an answer to these two questions: 1. how many calories are there in the bone marrow of whatever carcass and for how many individuals would have been enough not only to cover their physical needs but to exceed that, as mentioned by the author, and 2. would these calories be enough to get this group of individuals (Lucy and her group, family) through until they would find the next carcass?
where did we get that picture of Lucy?
Makes me feel.good being on a carnivore diet...
Imagine how dominant a species we could be if we embraced our hunter mentality and carnivorous nature. I don't think we'd be so fearful of the universe.
I see how you are trying to put a spin and twisting Darwinism. All bogus! I don’t see any lion or a crocodile that has evolved in to a more sophisticated mammal just because they eat meat.
It’s a real life Dr Temperance Brennan, I love this video! 🎉
why does Christina Warinner come to a different conclusion kzread.info/dash/bejne/eIJ90a2mfdSck9Y.html
Because she is biased (vegan) scientist. The first thing. And the second thing: she's talking about much later era then the time of Lucy.
This is the best thing about KZread, that we can watch and listen to such great legends. I am writing a video script on human evolution. So inspiring to see the discoverer of Lucy. Salute to all such brilliant people.
Not that I thought about it before, but now I must know if Lucy was able to whistle 😂
I believe pigs/boars can break bones open.
