"Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel... By which also ye are saved... unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures" (1 Corinthians 15:1-4)

When fossils of homo spiens were found at Swanscombe in England and Steinheim in Germany, some suggested that "our own species may be up to 250,000 years old; their skulls look very like our own." It is a common saying that "The species to which you and all other living human beings on this planet belong is Homo sapiens" but, anatomically modern humans are classified by evolutionists as Homo sapiens sapiens.

It is also believed that Homo Sapiens and Neanderthals were contemporaries, in that they roamed the earth at the same time.

Nebraska man (Hesperopithecus haroldcookii) was another grasp at finding some form of human subspecies or ape-man. In 1922 a single tooth was discovered in Pliocine deposits in western Nebraska. Dr. Henry Fairfeild Osborn of Columbia University, head of the American Museum of Natural History recieved this tooth from a Nebraska Geologist and stated, "The Hesperopithecus tooth is like the still, small voice. Its sound is by no means easy to hear... This little tooth speaks volumes of truth, in that it affords evidence of man's descent from apes." (Bowden 1977, 46)

This created much hype, even apearing in Science (1927, 66:579), and pictures were published in the Illustrated London News of the man and his wife, and presented as evidence that man evolved from apes. Shortly thereafter some additional bones were discovered of this creature and it turned out that this tooth belonged to that of a pig, which species still exist today in herds which are found in Paraguay's Chaco.

As it turns out, this new "missing link" was nothing more than a pigs tooth.

Conclusion: There is no reason to believe that Homo Sapiens was not a modern man in every sense of the word.
