Solution
In earliest times, prehistoric humans lived alone in caves or other natural shelters. They ate wild berries, roots, fruits, insects, worms and flesh of small animals. They used their bare hands to kill small animals. They did not wear any clothes and their bodies were covered with thick hair.
The modem humans (Homo sapiens) finally appeared about 200,000 years ago. They had mastered the art of making tools.
