Neanderthals were present when modern humans arose. Neanderthals lived in Eurasia for about 400,000 years and had many similarities to modern humans, but they went extinct around 40,000 years ago. Recent studies suggest that modern humans and Neanderthals interbred, with some people today having Neanderthal DNA in their genomes.

∙ 11y agoWhile "modern people" were on the planet, Homo erectus was still living in Southeast Asia. H. erectus existed from approximately 1.8mya to 25kya.
No, H. sapiens arose out of local populations of H. erectus in Africa, Asia and Europe. Although, there is the single origin hypothesis theory that modern humans (H. Sapiens) arose out of a single population of late H. erectus in Africa around 150,000 years ago.
Homo sapiens is a largely biological designation and science does not allow issues of spirit to tread upon it. But the world is changing quickly. Issues of the spirit are on the rise and the next stage of human evolution already has some names floating around: homo spiritus homo sanctus It's a change in which either science, or common perception dictates that we do have spirits, and are divine, destined for immortality. http://www.paep.ca/en/CIYL/2002/doc/peck_homo_sapiens.pdf
The first civilization arose in the Nile delta in ancient Kemet (Egypt) and then spread to Mesopotamia at the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers.
Early Man vs Modern ManEarly man and modern man could be easily distinguished from each other as the differences in lifestyle would provide a better platform to discuss rather than the anatomy and morphology. The question of defining an early man should be cleared out first as it either could be the first of man-like apes, known as Australopithecus afarensis, or the aboriginal people. Interestingly, recent fossil evidence reveals that the complexity of human evolution is very high and the present knowledge is far from truth. Thus, instead of being lost in the history which is few million years old and barely known, it would rather make more sense to discuss the recent early men, the aborigines. Indeed, the aboriginal men are in the same taxonomic group, Homo sapiens, as the modern man.Early ManAustralian Aborigines, Red Indians, Sri Lankan Veddas, Japanese Ainu, Kung Bushmen of Africa, Mayans of Mexico… etc were some of the dominant inhabitants of the Earth before the establishment of the modern man. They are culturally different among themselves, and the geographical boundaries viz. oceans have been the main extrications. These early men lived with the nature and, most importantly, they utilized the natural resources in a sustainable manner. Indigenous people lived in tribes those were composed of family units while some were nomadic. These un-urbanized self and sustaining societies had very simple lifestyles with primary hunting methods and simply sheltered houses. They followed in spiritual beliefs more often than not. The development of technology was very low during the time they were thriving on the Earth, which was at least several thousand years ago from the present. The communication between distant places was primary as the loud sounds were frequently used as signals to others. Travelling and transportation took more time and effort to complete. At present the indigenous people or true early man is declining in numbers. There are only about 5000 of them living in over 70 countries.Modern ManModern man is vastly different culturally among continents as well as among countries. In addition, these cultural differences could extend even more within a country. With the globalization takes place, those cultural differences will become narrower. Physical barriers within modern men could not restrict them to isolate from others as the technologies arose to travel and transport over oceans and through aerial routes. Lifestyle of modern man is complex with increasing needs for several things viz. food, shelter, power, money, attraction… etc. Hunting has become a least interested foraging method hence, livestock management has become prominent for the need of proteins. One of the sounding characteristics of the modern man is the development of communication techniques. Through internet, e-mailing, social networking, and telephones the communication has developed. However, the modern man is still in the increasing mode in terms of population size, it was almost 6. 8 Billion by 2009.Early Man Vs Modern ManRead more: http://www.differencebetween.com/difference-between-early-man-and-vs-modern-man/#ixzz20Ea9IkEm
The ancestor of modern homo sapiens is Australopithecus Afarensis. Australopithecus's ancestor is a giant oragutan-like primate. Its real cool. You should look it up. The ancestor of the giant oragutan i just mentioned is the first monkey-like animal ever (found). Its called Plesidapis. It sort of looks like a monkey type thing but at the same time it looks like a small dog with a monkey tail. Its weird. But cool. You should look it up. (oh, and if you ever do look it up on images or somthing, don't pay any attention to the ones that look like raccoons. They did not look like raccoons. Trust me. I got a seventh sense about these things).
Africa. We are learning new things about the origin of our species all the time, so it is not impossible that humans arose in a different location.
No, H. sapiens arose out of local populations of H. erectus in Africa, Asia and Europe. Although, there is the single origin hypothesis theory that modern humans (H. Sapiens) arose out of a single population of late H. erectus in Africa around 150,000 years ago.

How does mutation that protects some humans from HIV infection arose?
I/You/We/They arise. He/She/It arises. The present participle is arising.
My World History book in high school says that the homo sapiens or "thinking man" arose in 200,000 B.C. The more modern humans, homo sapiens sapiens or "thinking thinking man" arose shortly after. Records of the "thinking man" disappeared around 30,000 B.C. but the "thinking thinking man" records remain, which is what modern humans are.
