Which species invited the punch-blade technique ?
a) Homo neanderthalensis
b) Homo erectus
c) Homo sapiens
d) Homo habilis
ANSWER :
Levallois is the technique of stone knapping developed during paleolithic period and invented by precursor of modern human called Homo neanderthalensis.
The soft punch or hammerstone are used to create sharp blades and this technique is invented via Homo erectus (nearest ancestor of human).

Put the following events in order from the OLDEST to the MOST RECENT. A Homo sapiens migrated out of Africa and throughout Europe and Asia, where they coexisted with other Homo species (such as H. erectus and H. neanderthalensis). B Homo sapiens first appeared in Africa. They had larger brain sizes, smaller teeth, and reduced brow ridges compared to pre-modern hominins such as H. erectus and H. ergaster. C Homo sapiens replaced all previous Homo species and became the...

Based on what evidence do we now think that Homo sapiens mated with other species of Homo , such as Denisovans and Neanderthals? a. Sequences of mitochondrial genomes show that there has been some introgression of genes from other species of Homo into Homo sapiens b. Partial genome sequences from Homo neanderthalensis and Denisovans (~15% of the genome sequence) began to show eviden ce of introgression c. Full genome sequences from bone fragments of "archaic" Homo species from Africa show...
