Scientist who studies climate change…finds unique survival strategy of hominins.Humans evolved during the last 3 million years. During this time, earth’s climate cooled and around 1 million years ago ice-age cycles with periods of about 20-120 thousand years began to dominate global climate, rainfall and vegetation patterns. How early humans reacted to these large fluctuations ... Name : 전체관리자 Hits : 3757 2023.08.03
