Who is Ardi?

He is about 4.4 million years old

Lucy is about 1.x million years old. She is more like a human. where as Ardi is common ancesor of us and apes

Lucy is found, I believe in the swiss alps

Ardi is found in Ethiopia

Ardi is the common ancestor of us and apes

heading for extinction.

Agriculture started around 15,000 years ago

Apparently no wars prior to agriculture have been found

Northeast Africa and south west Asia


Chimps
Bonobos
Gorillas

Only chimps are agressive with their canine teeth.

bonobos have never been found to kill one another

to bite the living daylights out of disagreeing neighbor


65 million years - second dinosaur extinction
4.4 million years - oldest ancestor of human/ape found
1.3 million years - oldest human ancestor found
70,000 years - only a few thousands fo humans on the planet
             - heading for extinction
15,000 years - agriculture starts
5,000 years - writing starts

if two monkeys are given hugely different rewards for the same task, the one with the short end of the stick won't cooperate

suggesting that apes have evolved more than us in diversity

how come chimps are more agressive than bonobos?

How come chimps are more aggressive than bonobos, evolutionarily?

Ardi even seem to have lesser snout and normaller teeth compared to apes

You do make me question evolution, when you believe the world was created 10,000 years ago.

Human Population Growth Curve

If we were almost exitinct 70,000 years ago, how many of us were there before? How much was the decline? why?

Population numbers since 10,000 BC

Apparently we were about 4 to 7 million from 10,000BC to 4,000BC

Read about Toba catastrophe

To give an idea of its magnitude, consider that although the eruption took place in Indonesia, it deposited an ash layer approximately 15 centimetres thick over the entire Indian subcontinent; at one site in central India, the Toba ash layer today is up to 6 metres thick and parts of Malaysia were covered with 9 m of ashfall.[12] In addition it has been calculated that one hundred million metric tons of sulphuric acid was ejected into the atmosphere by the event, causing acid rain fallout.

Genetic evidence suggests that all humans alive today, despite apparent variety, are descended from a very small population, perhaps between 1,000 to 10,000 breeding pairs about 70,000 years ago
