Prehistory: It is the period that begins with our first ancestors, about four
million years ago, and finishes with the invention of writing, about 3,000
B.C. There was no written texts during this period.
Prehistory is divided into three periods:
The Palaeolithic The Neolithic Age The Metal Ages

3. The origin of man
We begin with a fascinating topic: the origin of man. As you all know,
traditionally there has been two ways to study the question: one says that the
world and man were created by God (Creation) and the other says that all
species proceeded from a unique common ancestor (Evolution). We are going
to work on these two types of theories through the following texts.
1) Read the two proceeding texts using a dictionary to help you translate
the words that you don’t understand.

4. Hominization
Hominization: It is the evolutionary process that results in the present

human being. It was a very long process.
Australopithecus
It means “southern ape”, because
the first discovery took place in
South Africa and they were very
similar to chimpanzees. However,
they walked on two feet. They were
about 1,30 m tall and their brain
was between 400 to 550 cm3. They
gathered wild fruit and lived about
four million years ago in Africa (For
example, Lucy, “grandmother of
humanity”).
Homo habilis
It means skilful, because they
made stone tools. These appeared
two million years ago. Their brain
was bigger and they were taller.
They lived from hunting and
gathering.
Homo erectus
These appeared one and a half
million years ago. They walked
upright (that is why they are called
“erectus”). This was the first species
to live outside Africa (in Europe
and Asia). They discovered fire
and made bifaces (a two-sided stone
tool). They were excellent hunters.

Homo antecessor
They were the oldest human
remains in Europe. They lived in
Atapuerca, Spain. They are called
antecessor because they might be
the direct antecedent to the next
species. They could have practised
cannibalism. They are more than 1
million years ago. Model of a female Homo antecessor practicing
cannibalism (Ibeas Museum, Burgos, Spain).
Homo sapiens neanderthalensis

(Neanderthal)
The Neanderthal is named after
the neandertal valley (Germany),
where there were found fossils of
this specie. They lived in Europe
150,000 years ago. They were
stronger that we are but shorter.
They were the first species to bury
their dead. It seems they were
able to speak.
Homo sapiens sapiens

It means wise man. Our species
appeared in Africa about 130,000
years ago. Homo sapiens were
slimmer but taller than
Neanderthals. They were able to
make finer tools. They created art.
What do they have in common those two pictures?

5. What was Prehistoric art like?
Just like today, our ancestors had an artistic sensibility. Human beings
started decorating their caves and objects about 35,000 years ago.
Painting on the wall: yesterday and today.
Palaeolithic art
Palaeolithic art can be divided into two groups: Mobiliary art and parietal art.
- Mobiliary art: It is the one that can be moved. It can be made of

stone, bone, ivory… For example, the venus figurines, statuettes of
women with certain parts of the human anatomy exaggerated
(abdomen, hips, breast, vulva) while others are smalls and with no
detail (head).
Venus of Willendorf and Venus of Lespugue
Did you know…?

Venus figurines are very little, between 4 cm and 25 cm in height.

- Cave art or parietal art: art on the walls of caves and shelters. For
example, the Franco-Cantabrian art.
The Altamira cave paintings.
Parietal art had the following characteristics:
- Animals, such as deer, bison, horses and mammoths were often

represented without men.
- The paintings were realistic (naturalistic).
- They were painted in the secrecy of caves.
- They used colours like red, brown, yellow and black.
- Animal hair was used to make brushes. Sometimes, they painted
with their hands.
Neolithic art
Many of the painting are in the Levantine area of the Iberian peninsula.
They had the following characteristics:
- Scenes with frequent representation of men.

- The paintings were not realistic with figures very schematic.
- They were painted in the open air (shelter).
La Danza del Cogul (Lérida) and the Indalo (Cave of “Los letreros”, Vélez Blanco)

15
Megalithic monuments
In the last years of the Neolithic Age, and during the Metal Ages,
monuments were built with big blocks of stone (the word 'megalith'
comes from the Ancient Greek mega meaning “great”, and lithos
meaning “stone”).
The most common type of megalithic constructions are:
Menhirs: (From Breton: Dolmen: (Dolmen" Stone circle: Several

men “stone”, and hir “long”)) originates from the expression
taol maen, which means
menhirs making

6. HAVING FUN: Expressing yourself through art!
Jean-Michel Basquiat was a very popular artist in the

New York art scene in the 1980’s. He started as a
graffiti artist and produced Neo-expressionist painting.
Just like the Palaeolithic men, Basquiat didn´t draw like
Leonardo or painted like Raphael, but he had
something to say and made beautiful pieces of art.
Make a drawing using your imagination. The

possibilities are endless as you let your imagination go.
You can inspire in the past (cave art) or in the present.
Just be creative. And remember, you don´t have to
be perfect, Just express yourself!


7. Reading activities
Before 'Lucy,' There Was 'Ardi'.

First Major Analysis Of Early Hominid Published In Science
In a special issue of Science, an international team of scientists has for the first time described
Ardipithecus ramidus, a hominid species that lived 4.4 million years ago in what is now Ethiopia.
On October 1, 2009, paleontologists announced the discovery of a ardipithecus

ramidus fossil skeleton of a female, nicknamed "Ardi", that lived 4.4 million years ago,
more than a million years before Lucy (Australopithecus afarensis). It was discovered in
Ethiopia´s Afar desert and it is a very important discovery because Ardi, like Lucy,
walked on two feet, even though could not walk or run for long distances. The word
Ardi means "ground floor" in the Afar language.
Ardipithecus ramidus had a small brain,

measuring between 300 and 350 cm3.
This is about the same size as a modern
chimpanzee brain, but much smaller
than the brain of australopithecus like
Lucy (400 to 550 cm3). Ardi weighed
about 50 kilograms and stood about
120 centimeters tall.
“So when you go from head to toe,

you're seeing a mosaic creature, that is
neither chimpanzee, nor is it human. It is
Ardipithecus," said Tim White of the
University of California Berkeley, who is
one of the lead authors of the research.
These hominids appear to have lived in a woodland environment, where they climbed
on all fours along tree branches (as chimpanzees do) and walked, upright, on two legs,
while on the ground.

Regenerating a Mammoth for $10 Million
Scientists are talking for the first time about the old idea of resurrecting extinct
species, saying that a living mammoth could perhaps be regenerated for as little as
$10 million.
If the genome of an extinct species can be reconstructed, biologists can work out
the exact DNA differences with the genome of its nearest living relative. There are
talks on how to modify the DNA in an elephant’s egg so that after each round of
changes it would progressively resemble the DNA in a mammoth egg. The final-
stage egg could then be brought to term in an elephant mother, and mammoths
might once again roam the Siberian steppes.
The same technology could be applied to any other extinct species from which
one can obtain hair, horn, hooves, fur or feathers. For example with Neanderthals,
whose full genome is expected to be recovered shortly, but there would be several
ethical issues in modifying modern human DNA to that of another human species.
A woolly mammoth hair ball. Hairs like these were used to sequence the mammoth genome.

Activities
1. What are scientists talking about for the first time?
2. How can they do that?
3. Could the same technology be applied to any other extinct species? Which one?
4. What is your opinion?

“Those who refuse to learn from history are condemned to repeat it.”
Read the proceeding documents using a dictionary to help you translate the words that you
don’t understand. After that, do the activities.
TEXT A
Both Palaeolithic and Neolithic started with a huge crisis because of a
abrupt climate change. In the first one, the rainforest converted in sabana and our
first ancestors had to walk upright. In the second one, as the climate got drier,
people went to oases and became sedentary (the oasis theory). Because they had
little to eat, they observed that plants grew when seeds fell on the ground and this
is how agriculture started.
Human beings are capable of doing good things even in the worst circumstances.
TEXT B
Let´s not pretend that things will change if we do the same things. A crisis can be
something good to any person, to any nation, because all crisis bring progress.
Creativity is born from anguish, just like the day is born from the dark night. It´s in crisis
that discoveries are born. But the greatest inconvenience of people and nations is the
laziness. Incompetence is the true crisis. Let´s work hard instead.
There´s no challenge withot a crisis. Without challenges, life becomes a routine. There´s
no merit without crisis. It´s in the crisis where we can show the very best of us.

27
Did you know that…?
The Chinese write with

symbols, with what they call
"ideograms". The word for
crisis is made of two
characters: one represents
dander and the other
represents opportunity.
Unfortunately, many people only see the danger in

crises and fail to look for the opportunities.
How about you?
Activities
1. Can you explain the principal idea of the first text?
2. Can you explain the principal idea of the second text?
3. Do you know the author of the second text?
4. Learning from the past… ¿Can you tell me how can we turn our Global
Economic and Climate Crisis into an opportunity?
5. Can you tell some examples on how one personal crisis can turn into an
opportunity?
