1.The kappelman material suggests that H. habilis is the first hominin species to evidence an expansion in absolute and relative brain size. My notes, however, suggest that this first occurred with Gracile Australopithecines. In either case, these species reflect a new trend in hominin cognitive development.
Explain what happened in hominin brain development at this time and the reasons associated with this change (200-250 wds). There is debate regarding the taxonomic rank of African Homo erectus in 2.paleoanthropology. Some researchers suggest that these populations should be classified as Homo ergaster instead of Homo erectus. Explain this debate and why it is that they should be represented as one species instead of two. 200-250 wds).
