"The face that's changing a thousand minds"National Geographic, August 2002: New skull finds. Dmanisi is a republic named Georgia, It's located in south west Asia between the Black sea and The Caspian Sea. It's located at the same latitude as Italy. 1.75 million Years ago when the Black and Caspian thought to be connected, were part of an ocean. Making this land very lush and livable. Homo habilis thought to be part of the footsteps out of Africa for man kind (and even possibly racial tensions in today's Middle East). An animal living 2.4 to 1.6 million years ago. Relatively half the body size of a modern man and also brain size to body ratio was about half. I am not sure whether to believe the "brain size to body ratio" theory. Homo Habilis were users of Oldowan tools. Consisting of choppers and cutters limited tool sophistications relatively speaking. Having smaller bodies and longer arms, lower centers of gravity, Homo habilis are guessed to be better suited for arboreal life. Very muscular and strong in characteristics. Homo habilis was a creature mastering diversity. In the shade swinging through the trees and also traveling distances in the sun by foot. Not excellent at one but proficient at both.
One large and one small both have the capacity to stretch to equal lengths, but the large one always has the ability to stretch much more, but in some cases the larger band can become shorter then the short band. Canadian geese every year migrate to better feeding grounds and warmer climates. I also have thoughts time to time; some research and theories are very close minded. They had some capacity; they had the resources with the lush land and climate of Mediterranean ocean. When I ask my self where I get my intelligence, my first thought is learned intelligence. who really knows maybe not? I also think if Homo habilis was forced to migrate, they were capable with a diverse body structure and the forming of a larger brain relative to other animals at the time. My thoughts are brain size dose matter, but you can't just assume a small brain, no migration out of Africa that's ludicrous. "Had a tiny brain--not nearly the size scientists thought our ancestors needed to migrate". Homo habilis was a more complex creature then they are made out to be. Mousterian tools were smaller and were more economical with resources, thinner, straighter, and sharper. And also having diverse characteristics much like humans today each is different and unique. I am assuming a lot of things I have to background for my opinions, but I do think Homo habilis was a more sophisticated creature then most scientist think. With leaders, brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, and even between males and females. I am not sure which and I may be wrong but I believe its more complex then "brain to body ratio".
