Lucy was not that smart as the Great Apes of today


The researchers have discovered that the first human beings such as the popular ‘Lucy’ were not that really smart as the enormous apes. Using the new methods, they had been able to identify that the earliest human beings did not have that similar flow of blood into the brain like the modern apes, that they calculate, which means that the pre-humans would not have had that similar level of intelligence, being said as the modern gorillas. As an outcome of the study, the view of the development of the early human beings may have to alter.

The research has been carried out in Australia at University of Adelaide. It has been led by the evolutionary biologist, Professor Roger Seymour. Mirage News reported that it has been “conducted through the partnership with Evolutionary Studies Institute in University of Witwatersrand”. The study sought to approximate if the pre-humans has been as intelligent as the recent great apes, through measuring the flowing of the blood to a cognitive part of the brain instead of the mass of the craniums.

Brain activity and the blood flow

The group sought to measure a brain metabolic rate or the BMR, by approximating the ratio of the blood flow in the early human beings. Based on the Proceedings of Royal Society, this “can be, the better correlation of the cognitive ability than the brain size alone”.

It is because this measures a synaptic activity that is “indicative of mutually the rate of metabolism of the brain and the level of intelligence” stated by the Daily Mail. This team had to increase the latest equation that will measure the blood flow in the cranial cavities.

The Great apes are even smarter than the early humans

Professor Roger Seymour said that “the study showed that the cerebral blood flow rates of the human ancestors drops well underneath the facts taken from the non-human, modern primates” base of the UPI.com. It is despite the truth that an Australopithecine brain has been of similar size as the latest gorilla brain.

The gorilla Lucy was discovered in Ethiopia in 1974 and is thought to be about 3.2 million years of age. From the latest study, it might appear that she had not been as intelligent as the modern species of the great ape. We are then aware that the gorillas are very smart, such as the popular Koko who discover too many signs in the sign language while at the captivity.

This dares notions of the evolution

Usually it had been considered that since early humans had larger brains than they were wiser, leading to the assumptions that they were best able to adapt into the environment and it is what created them so successful. Professor Seymour has quoted as stating that the case “cast doubt above the notion that a cognitive and neurological trait of the recent great apes sufficiently represent the capabilities of the Australopithecus species,” from Irish News.com. It may mean that the theories of cognitive superiority of the early humans of the history of the world, when compared to recent modern primates were all incorrect.

Conclusions image from the Mills and the Townsend


Humans throughout the history of the world had behaved in some predictable ways when choosing their food and when processing the foods they are going to take.

The facts are mutually supporting and are clearly illuminated within the present literature. The ending part is accurate, repeatable, well supported, and construct behavioral and physical profiles of the presently unclassified hominin living of the Bigfoot at the Mount St. Helens.

These proofs analyses that have been presented during the 69th Yearly Anthropological Research Conference corresponds the chance for the mainstream archeologists and anthropologists to examine parts of the credible proof that is gradually emerging. Their Zooarcheological field research plan that has been conducted has used the most present scientific theories and the analytical techniques to light up data that clearly build the profile of the hominin with connected dentition Physio-morphology with the defining behavioral characteristics. The conclusions are from clear and repeatable facts grounded in and being supported by the contemporary peer reviewed sciences. They refer to, expand currently and build upon accepting mainstream scientific theories.

These anthropological research conferences gave those who are present the chance to hear the conclusions and have reviewed the evidence it has been based them upon. It had the opportunity to analyze the procedure and framing theories. Their audience’s reaction in the presentation was one from those encouragement and astonishment reactions. Attendees were has been very encouraged by the comprehensive efforts and also with the broad based analysis. Indeed, it has been astonished by the outcomes.

Catholics Death Rites


During All Souls' Day the Catholics are praying for the dead that are in purgatory - the conceptual place where the souls of the people are being cleansed before they can go directly to heaven. The problem is, when a soul left the corpse, according to the Christians, it is thought to still contain the sins that only through prayers can it be cleansed. And so, where on this earth, or otherwise, that this bizarre thinking originate, that these souls may be cleansed by praying.

During 998 AD in the history of the world, the Saint Odilo has been the 5th Benedictine Abbot of the Cluny, which turned out to be the most significant monastery in the Western part of Europe. Based on an essay on the Heiligen a tradition told the pilgrim being shipwrecked on the island after the storm where there he had the vision “of those souls in the purgatory bearing the cleansing pain of the flames as the punishment for the sins”. It was believed as the father of Odilo in Cluny, who had inquired him if there had been any moments in the year prayer would be directed to the deceased’s souls.

On November 2nd, Odilo subsequently founded All Souls' Day in Cluny, and at times after 1030 AD, the date was then adopted in the entire Western church as a yearly holy day celebrating “all those faithful departed” where the sacrifices and prayers are being made to ease the souls being suffered in the purgatory, awaiting for their purification.
