Becoming Human:
Paleoanthropology, Evolution, and Human Origins
A joint project of Arizona State University’s Institute for Human Origins, documentary filmmaker Lenora C. Johanson, and Terra Incognita, this site is designed to teach a general audience about human evolution and the search for early hominid life in the field. The key feature of the site is an extensive Flash-driven, online documentary which includes a number of pop-up sub-exhibits that provide additional information and resources on various topics.
Evolutionary
Theories in the Social Sciences

This site provides an informative tour of the current state of human paleontology. A hypertext family tree of early human phylogeny helps you see not only the relations between various incarnations of human ancestors, but lets you click on parts of the timetable to examine fossil evidence and read about the discovery of and conclusions drawn from crucial skull bones and fragments. Another section allows you to examine three key fossilized skulls with QuickTime, so that you can rotate the skull and zoom in on key features.
