overview
Homo erectus was once thought to have first evolved from an earlier human ancestor, known as Homo habilis, somewhere in East Africa. It was thought that H. erectus then spread out to inhabit South Africa, parts of Europe (Spain and Italy), the Caucasus, India, China, and Indonesia.

They found better stones, and sharpened them for hand axes, which were cutting tools. Their tool-making skills included creating items that could be compared to modern hammers and knives. In addition, Homo erectus likely made ropes by twisting bark and grass.

The extinct ancient human Homo erectus is a species of firsts. It was the first of our relatives to have human-like body proportions, with shorter arms and longer legs relative to its torso. It was also the first known hominin to migrate out of Africa, and possibly the first to cook food.
In terms of species survival, Homo erectus is a huge success story. Fossil evidence for H. erectus stretches over more than 1.5 million years, making it by far the longest surviving of all our human relatives.
Compare this to our own species, Homo sapiens, which has been around for perhaps 400,000 years so far, and we begin to appreciate their ability to survive over a long period marked by many changes to the environment and climate.
