Earth has been in existence for over 4.6 billion years. In all these eons, thousands, perhaps millions, of different animals have gone extinct, including some of our relatives and direct ancestors, such as the "working man" (Homo ergaster) and the "handy man" (Homo habilis), to name a few. You do not know that the first modern human beings (Homo sapiens) were between 400,000 and 250,000 years ago

At that time, we didn't have a lot of competition, just some Neanderthals here and there, which probably helped us survive and develop our cognitive skills instead of using brute force on everything.However, none of the other humans in the Homo genre survived this arduous trip, leaving the Homo sapiens in charge of the environment.

Here are the top 6 extinct human beings.

1. Homeo Georgicus,

This "bridge species" was found between Homo habilis and Homo erectus Georgia in 1999 and is believed to be at least 1.8 million years old. Their skulls were small, but who needs brains when you're brawned! Such homies arrived in Europe around 800,000 years ago.

2. Homo ergaster ('worker')

Now, let's travel to South East Africa, 1.9-1.4 million BC. The "worker" used to be a lot like H. Erectus, but with certain variations in the structure of the skull and in the size of the brain. They used axes of stone, and they probably figured out how to make fire a long time before the others.

3. Homo rubolfensis

A 1.9 million-year - old skull washed ashore near Lake Rudolf, Kenya, in 2007. Only one survivor of this population has been discovered so far, and according to the scientists it was more of a smart ape than a human.

4. Precessor of Homo

One of our first European ancestors migrated across the continent, from Spain to Georgia, between 1.2 million and 700,000 years ago. Their big brains (over 1000 cc) helped them immensely during their reign in Europe.

5.Home habilis ('handy man')

Many researchers believe that Homo habilis, which lived 2.5 to 1.8 million years ago, could have been the first species of the Homo gene ever to appear. They were supposedly the first species to use stone tools, but were mostly used to cut meat from a dead animal, rather than hunting or self-defense.

6.Neandertalensis (Homoneanderthalensis)

These are the big ones! Its bones have been found in Europe and western Asia. The Neanderthals were still wandering around the land not so long ago, some 24,000 years ago, and they first appeared 130,000 years ago. And because our immediate ancestors were living their lives and getting these big-nosed brutes as friends, there was definitely some sort of DNA mixing going on. We might even speak in words and phrases, play flutes made of bear femurs, and some researchers may even recommend that we bury their dead. Knowing us humans, we undoubtedly saw what the big boys were doing, so we began to do it ourselves, albeit more effectively

This totally explains the principles of evolution and evolutionary believes. Could it really be true? Good work though
