EDITORS COMMENTS
This model depicts Cro-Magnon man, an early modern human who lived approximately 30,000 years ago in the Dordogne region of France. Cro-Magnon man is an essential figure in human evolution, representing the transition from archaic Homo sapiens to anatomically modern humans. This model, expertly crafted by Maurice Wilson in the 20th century, offers a glimpse into our ancient past. Cro-Magnon man is a member of the Hominidae family, which includes great apes and humans. As a hominid, he shares characteristics with both primates and apes, making him part of the order Primates and the infraorder Haplorhini. More specifically, he belongs to the superfamily Hominoidea, the family Hominidae, the subfamily Homininae, and the tribe Hominini. As a placental mammal, Cro-Magnon man was part of the class Mammalia, characterized by the presence of a placenta for nourishing the developing fetus in the womb. He was also an epitherian, meaning that his teeth have one root, and his skull is solid and closed at birth. Maurice Wilson's model provides a striking representation of Cro-Magnon man's anatomically modern features, which distinguish him from his earlier Homo sapiens ancestors. These features include a larger brain, a more prominent forehead, and a receding brow ridge. Wilson's meticulous attention to detail brings this important hominid to life, allowing us to connect with our early ancestors and appreciate the remarkable journey of human evolution.
