English: Homo ergaster reconstruction, American Museum of Natural History
An educated guess of homo ergaster (meaning "workman") by the American Museum of Natural History. Ergaster is probably one in the long line of our ancestors, living about a million years ago. This is a lady holding a stone tool. Ergaster seemed to have control of fire and possibly use of a rudimentary form of language. What does interest me more is that the AMNH people thought it appropriate to insert a fly into the lady's hair. Flies are almost anywhere to be found where humans prepare food. Does this make homo ergaster more human - or are we witnessing here the politics of cultural difference? "Us" and "them"? |
