Is there fossil evidence for human evolution?
It’s easy to trace the evolution of the automobile. At most, we’re only talking about a few centuries of technological development, and most of the plans, prototypes and models are still around. With just a little research, you can easily trace the latest model electric hybrid back to its steam-powered ancestors. Your family tree is probably a different matter. Even an extensive genealogy chart can only reach back so far, and mortality puts a rather strict limit on exactly how many “models” are still on the road. Humanity’s evolutionary progression is even more difficult. We still have plenty of living primate relatives, but many of the life forms that connect the evolutionary dots are long extinct. Evolutionary biologists use several methods to decipher exactly how we came to be as we are. In fact, the field itself encompasses several different disciplines in addition to biology, like genetics, p
