hi I have a question I can't find your email so I do it like this
It's just a general question from a simple person
I was thinking if there are different hominids at the same time on earth during evolution that would also be the case at this time. How are they called? Where can I find information about that? Or haven't they found a name yet and are they all called homo sapiens?
Is it so that further evolved hominids are today declared insane by the more simple homo sapiens and expelled from society like for instance the neanderthal bashed the skulls in of the first homo sapiens because it frightens them? I was wondering about that
thanks for any comment
