Look at the erectus skull provided by RAZD and yours frako they are completely different. One of you must be wrong.

WK writes: Apart from some differences with the teeth I don't see the distinction you wish to draw either Ahhh...so you do see some differences then. It appears anyone can just dig up any old set of bones and within limits claim that it is homo erectus. Not very scientific!

Tangle writes: you think that you can google a single image and form a reasoned opinion that they're all wrong? It wasn't me who googled the first image, it was RAZD. If you can't see the differences between the two images (frako and RAZD) then I can't really help you. You need an optician!

Dr A writes: Whereas your point now would appear to be that there's so much variation in H. erectus alone that the specimens even within that necessarily narrower range shouldn't be classified together: Well the images are now available for all to see. Individuals can make up their own judgements about the differences and merits of classification. I won't explain what I can see as I presume you have eyes. Edited by Big_Al35, : No reason given.

Percy writes: The question on everyone's mind is whether you can see the differences between the Homo erectus skulls and the human skull. WK has already identified the teeth difference between pics 1 and 3, furthermore he claims that pic 3 has the lowest cranial capacity. This is WK's comments not mine. After having done my own research I am dubious about the latter comment.

Percy writes:
It's not me, it's your colleagues doing most of the seeing. You have already showed me two pictures of homo erectus which you now admit are different. You also now admit that one of the erectus images might be better classified as habilis. You claim to see no differences and yet you admit these differences. You now claim that shop replicas are virtually fraudulent copies. You claim that the lower jaw is a key difference when assessing fossils against modern man but show me a bunch of images where the lower jaw is missing. I think you should think carefully about making judgements about these fossils and before submitting your next post. Good luck.
Well, whatever it is you're seeing

Nuggin writes: I'll simply ask you two questions: #1) What do you feel is the best explanation for the fossils that exist?#2) What would you expect/need to see to be convinced that fossils represent changes over time from one set of features to a different set of features? My concern is that you appear to have only one explanation for how these fossils might have come about. Issues such as the effects of weathering, diet change, environmental factors, and medicine seem to be completely ignored. I am not even convinced by your dating arguments. And yes I am being honest!

Coyote writes: You should be banned for that--that's trolling behavior. Percy, is this your call? Should I be banned or not? Actually being banned would be a welcome relief. I might do something meaningful with my life.
