Conclusion

Homo sapiens sapiens came to be because of evolutionary patterns that have occurred throughout earth’s lifespan. It began with a split between monkeys and great apes, and great apes into habitual bipedal primates, such as the Australopiths and the species below that share that same taxonomic classification. After the Australopiths came the genus Homo. It began with Homo habilis, with Homo erectus coming shortly thereafter. Homo habilis was the first subspecies in the family Homininae to leave Africa. Following this, the genus Homo spread its population all over the eastern hemisphere. Neandertals came to be following the evolution of Homo erectus (supposedly). Neandertals remained in locations other than Africa. It was finally after the evolution of the Neandertal that H. sapiens sapiens came to exist. Neandertal genes still exist in populations outside of Africa, suggesting that there was limited interbreeding between Neandertals and primitive Homo sapiens sapiens. Because humans came to be so long ago, there is a question surrounding the evolution of H. Sapiens’ behavior. It is suggested that life spans increased as time advanced and behavioral evolution followed. This is how the modern H. Sapiens sapiens (as we know ourselves) came to exist today.
