Didn't you ever think were we come form and how we found out? Well we only have limited information
since we cant find all the fossil. There are many question that we would like to have the answer for but we don't have the evidence to prove it. In the past people thought that are origins are from myths but one day a scientist Charles Darwin comes and gives everyone a new idea that plants and animals evolve to adapt to thier environment. After a while sientist accepted the idea. Thomas Henry Huxley also had a theory that anatomically African apes and humans were related. Although in their times no hominid fossils were fund so they had no evidence.Raymond Dart was the first one to find a hominid fossil which enforced Thomas's and Huxley theories. They also found stone tools that they used and that suggested that the were predatory. Their are lots of other idea like that we were knuckle walkers or bipeds living in water. Although it is still helping us understand our origins better.
