Model of a male Homo erectus man
Homo erectus man. Model of a male Homo erectus, an early type of human. Homo erectus, or erect man, lived between roughly 1.8-0.3 million years ago and originated in Africa. They were the first humans to leave Africa, reaching Asia and possibly southern Europe. H. erectus had prominent brow ridges and a projecting face, and some specimens had brain volumes of over a litre. They stood upright, being a bit shorter than modern humans, but more heavily-built. They were nomadic hunters and gatherers. This model, from an exhibition by Nordstar, was photographed at the Naturkundemuseum in Stuttgart, Germany

The model accurately portrays distinctive features of this ancient human ancestor, including prominent brow ridges and a projecting face. Some specimens even boasted brain volumes exceeding one liter. Standing upright but slightly shorter than modern humans, Homo erectus individuals possessed robust builds.
