EVOLUTION OF HOMINIDS

These hominid evolutionary trees trace our genetic history as humans to the Old World monkeys that roamed Earth 25 million years ago. Discoveries of various remains, including those of the famous Australopithecus afarensis skeleton, commonly called Lucy, have helped us piece together an idea of our ancestry. It is believed that around 7 or 8 million years ago we split from the chimpanzees and the process of evolution into bipedal Homo sapiens began as these monkeys started to spend more time on the ground than in the trees.
