Question

Which one of the following is a true man?

Options

• Neanderthal man

• Homo erectus

• Homo habilis

• Shivapithecus

Answer 1

Neanderthal man

Explanation:

Neanderthal man is considered a “true man” (Homo sapiens neanderthalensis) with many human-like traits, including a large brain capacity and social behaviors such as burial of the dead. Homo erectus and Homo habilis are more primitive human ancestors, while Shivapithecus is an ape-like ancestor, not a true human species.
