Homo erectus adapted to steppe-desert climate extremes one million years ago - Communications Earth & Environment Homo erectus adapted to hyper-arid climatic conditions one million years ago through the strategic use of rivers and ponds, and this facilitated geographic expansion within and beyond Africa, as shown by multi-proxy data from Oldupai Gorge, Tanzania.

Homo erectus was able to adapt to and survive in desert-like environments at least 1.2 million years ago, according to a paper in Communications Earth & Environment. The findings suggest that behavioural adaptations included returning repeatedly to specific rivers and ponds for fresh water. 🧪 🏺
