Who's Who Amongst The Early Hominids

Susman, Randall. "Who's Who Among the Early Hominins?" Odyssey: Adventures in 
     Science: 22-25. Print.

Since Darwin's theory of evolution was proven, we have tried to get to the bottom of our evolution. Our species, known as Homo Sapiens
(Wise Human), came from many different species such as Homo Habilis (Handy Human) and Homo Neanderthalensis (Not too sure what
the direct meaning is, but is known as Neanderthal)

Now, the genetic group of hominids didn't just appear out of thin air, it evolved from apes which evolved from chimpanzees which evolved
from monkeys. The species that marked the dawn of hominids was called Australopithecus. It seemed hominid, but had arms longer than
it's legs and larger molars. As old as their fossils are, they still show the evolution process from ape to human and gave birth to a strong-
er species in the genetic group not known to the planet at the time then. It gave rise, to the hominids.

3 Theories On Stonehenge

Theory No. 1:
Burial For the Dead

Cremated remains (burned) were found under sarcen stones at the Stonehenge during May, 2008. The dating of the bone fragments shows the bones were buried at around 3000 B.C.E, when the first ditches around the monument were being built. The burials continued for 500 years while the large stones were put in place. This has lead to the theory that it was a Domain For The Dead.

Theory No.2:
Astronomical Observatory
