Well 12,000 years ago we went through an ice age among other world wide catastrophes. Civilization never really began until the Old testament work first started 5K years ago.
You're assigning today's environment to that of 100,000 years ago. When you're not the highest predator on the food chain, bad things happen and the average age is significantly less. I have no doubt that early man existed and I think carbon dating proves it. Why growth was slow can probably be explained by environmental conditions, high infant mortality, and a bazillion other factors.
I have no idea who that is....................
I agree. Modern humans developed a “leadership gene” which even today appears in a small, but predictable, percentage of the population. A smaller number with that gene have the ability to be leaders of leaders, and so on. This allowed our ancestors to organize tribes much, much larger than simple family units. This not only strgnthened out gene pool, but combined with out innate capacity for genocide, allowed us to crush other and even more physically robust hominids.
Your chart does not include any reference to the lowering of infant mortality rates in the last 200 years
The population has grown so fast the last few centuries because 5 out of 7 children no longer die before the age of 6.
I don’t know why these ‘artists’ always show cave people and the like with dirty faces, like these people didn’t know how to clean themselves up..................
So...pretty much like a modern human. Thanks.
Denosivan chicks were easy.
The Toba supervolcano of 70,000 years ago is said to have reduced the human population 10 10000-30000 individuals.
#not my ancestor
In 100 years, there would be 5.4 people.
In 1000 years, there would be 41,918 people. br>In 2000 years, there would be 878,582,410 people.
The human growth rate would have had to have been 0 for 90,000 years. It's just not believable.
Yeah, because it took 90,000 years for man to decide to plant seeds. LOL, It’s just ridiculous.
Oldowan Laz would hit it.
Most humans even now live near the sea. 12000 years ago, sea level was 300 feet lower. I would say most evidence of past civilizations has long been wiped out

And no plague or starvation due to other natural disasters
