The story of humanity is a fascinating journey that began with the first Hominines in Africa. From australopithecines to Homo habilis, then Homo erectus, our ancestors evolved, developing increasingly complex cognitive and technical abilities. The emergence of Homo sapiens, approximately 300,000 years ago, marked a major turning point with the development of culture, language, and art.
