What were they?
"It may well be that Homo erectus was a true man, but somewhat degenerate in size and culture, possibly because of inbreeding, poor diet and a hostile environment" (Morris 1974).

"He had a low forehead and pronounced brow ridges not unlike some races of modern man. Richard Leaky [sic] said that this boy would go unnoticed in a crowd today." (Menton 1988)

Really makes you think.
I dunno lol. Homo erectus is spoopy.
Pre-annunaki hominids
Those are both Creationist sources, and the only places I can find citing them are Creationist websites. Good job on the thinly veiled Creationist post.
We'd definitely recognize erectus or the other homos.
Homo sapiens all look the same. You're fooled because your brains are all designed to pick out the differences. And you know I'm right because you experience this effect when looking at other races.
Homo erectus is an interesting case
They are first found outside of Africa, in Georgia
and these had smaller brains than their later stages, found then in Africa
Homo erectus spread all over Eurasia
and is probably an ancestor to both Men and Neanderthals
some grew to giant size, look up Java man
literally 8 feet tall

Sounds like he is describing what would look like an abo.
>tfw within homo sapien existence there were 5 other hominid species and now we are the only ones left
