Pre-history
Pre-history began before anyone can document. As far back as is researched isn't even technically documented but scientists are able to figure out about time back then looking at historical facts. Two million years ago is when Homo Habilis existed. These were very important species to our time because they invented the first tools. They were nicknamed "Handy Man" because they invented them. Homo Habilis started the beginning of man made things and without their discoveries we could possibly not live in the same society as we do today. Their inventions started species on creating new things and taking different actions to advance themselves and make their lives easier. By making these tools, it made tasks more convenient and lives easier.
500,000 years later another species came to exist on our planet. They originally spread from Africa. Homo Erectus took what Homo Habilis began and took it to the next level. They took the unifacial tools that Homo Habilis invented and advanced them to bi-facial tools. This advancement made them another important contribution to our history. Also, they domesticated fire, started the clothing making process, and began cooperative hunting with possible language. Not only did they advance things using their minds but they also changed physically. Homo erectus was bigger than normal humans.
Homo Sapiens are the next in line on moving closer to the human species. They were otherwise known as the "Wise Men." Like Homo habilis they were given this nickname for a reason. Homo Sapiens had very large brains and were physically modern humans. It shows here that species are beginning to form into humans and take on human characteristics.
Neanderthals existed 200,000 to 30,000 years ago. This species was very much similar to us today. They made advanced tools, and became more like humans in their minds. Neanderthals buried their dead and began to have somewhat of a conscience. This made us similar to them. Also, to go along with that they cared for their sick. This species also was definitley language capable.
Cro Magnon existed 40,000 years ago and were also out of Africa. The cro magnon species were already advanced but then they went further and invented art and jewelry. This is how they expressed their ideas. This was the first species to do so.
Women vs. Men
Big argument in history
Who did more work? This argument has been fought often in the course of history. Men and women both worked hard but who worked harder? Men are usually handed most of the credit for taking care of their families and their needs but women actually did more in this aspect of like then the men. As everyone hears men of course did the hunting but this didn't provide for their family as much as you would think. Women cooked for the family eighty percent of the time. This only leaves ten percent of the time for men to provide the meals. Also, men didn't stay home and clean the house, take care of the children etc. This was left up to the women. This argument still occurs today. Constantly, this argument is brought up and fought over because the issues are the same and people think one side does more than the other. This is a big aspect of pre-history.

Prehistory to Now
Pre-history and now are very comparable. Previously stated, the argument between women and men, who did more, is still fought about today. Also, without the pre-historic species we wouldn't have the advances in society that we have today. They discovered and invented many things millions of years ago until now. Those inventions and discoveries are what helped us to become what we are today. We could possibly be way further behind than we are now if pre-historic people didn't help to advance us.
