No Physical Characteristics
The Homo antecessor, you notice, lacked any physical characteristics that distinguished it from other early human species. It did, however, have a distinct set of characteristics – particularly in the teeth, skull, and lower jaw – that set it apart from other ancient individuals. In fact, several of their characteristics looked to be more similar to those of current people.
Identical To Current Humans
For example, a Homo antecessor’s brain was about 1,000 cubic centimeters in size, compared to a modern human’s brain, which is 1,350cc. According to the Australian Museum’s website, their physique was “identical to current humans, but more robust.” And the men of this ancient species were typically short, ranging in height from five feet two to five feet nine.
