Prehistory is divided into several periods or ages, first there is the Lower, Middle and Upper Paleolithic, then the Mesolithic and finally the Neolithic. Remember that prehistory is the period before the appearance of writing. The Lower Paleolithic is considered to be the period that goes from 2.5 million years ago to approximately 200,000-128,000 years ago. In this video we will talk about this period and about Australopithecus, Homo habilis, Homo ergaster, Homo erectus, Homo antecessor, Homo heildelbergensis and Neanderthals. We will also talk about the first departure from Africa by Homo erectus, the discovery of fire 1.5 million years ago in Koobi Fora and the Sima de los Huesos in Atapuerca.
