Human Evolution Explorer
Explore human evolution as a branching process rather than a simple linear sequence. Investigate major hominin groups, compare species that coexisted, and use an interactive 3D Earth to follow key migration events, including early Homo dispersals, Homo sapiens expansion and genetic interbreeding with Neanderthals and Denisovans.
