The Stone Age by: Alex Nikodym The beginning of the human life. No energy, no metal, no nothing. How do they survive?
These are some of the only tools they made. The bottom tools were used to hunt with, and the top tools were used to grind up their food. But there were many different tools they used during all of the eras.
Men hunted in groups to kill things such as wild- deer, mammoth, birds and wild meat eaters. While they hunted, the women would gather things such as berries, nuts and plants that were edible.
ERAS There are three eras. Their names are: the Paleolithic era Mesolithic era Neolithic era
Paleolithic This is the first era of the three. The Homo Habilis lived during this time and they used stone tools.
Mesolithic This era is a little different because the Homo Erectus used bone tools instead of stone tools. This is the second era out of the three and the Homo Erectus lived during this era.
Neolithic In this era, the Homo Sapiens lived and made wooden handle bars for other tools like bone or stone. Sadly, this era ended right before metal was introduced.
Now we are going to talk about the people who lived during these times and what they did to survive. First up is the homo habilis. These people lived about 2.5 million years ago. They also roamed Africa. They used stone tools, nothing else. They have half the size of our brain. Their nickname is the Handyman.
Next on our list is the homo erectus. They roamed Africa about 1.5 to 2.0 million years ago. They left Africa and went to Europe, and Asia. They made the ax and learned how to control fire! Their nickname is Upright Man.
Lastly on our long list is the homo sapiens. They lived about 200,000 years ago and they also learned to not only control fire but to make it on there own without a natural source! They used more advanced tools. They actually developed language not just grunts or hand signals. We are still the homo sapiens if you want to get technical.
