Exhibition | 27 April 2017 - 31 March 2029
This exhibition tells the story of evolution through fossils, apes, and reconstructions. Life on Earth began four billion years ago and from that moment evolution started. Small differences between generations can - over time - lead to significant changes. These adaptations sometimes provide advantages, such as more offspring or better access to food, allowing new traits to be passed on. Over time such changes can lead to the emergence of new species.
The human
Us, Homo sapiens,emerged through billions of years of evolution. Our earliest ancestors were single celled bacteria from which increasingly complex life forms developed. Retaining the successful traits of their predecessors. About 25 million years ago, the first apes appeared.The first humans (Homo habilis) lived. 2,4 tot 1,4 million years ago in East-Afrika. The modern humans (Homo sapiens) appeard only 200.000 years ago and is the only surviving species of the genus Homo.
