This picture sequence of human evolution shows:

• Row 1: Pliopithecus, Pronconsul, Dryopithecus, Oreopithecus, Ramapithecus

• Row 2: Australopithecus, Paranthropus, Advanced Australopithecus, Homo Erectus, Early Homo Sapiens, Solo Man, & Rhodesian Man

• Row 3: Neanderthal Man, Cro-Magnon Man, Modern Man

Go to one paragraph descriptions of each of these stages of human evolution.

Note: This chart implies a linear sequence, but human evolution is better represented by a branching tree - modern man did NOT evolve through all these stages, e.g., Neanderthals are considered a separate branch.  Go to a more accurate, up to date human evolution chart.
