Purgatorius, a kind of mammal called a plesiadapiform, might’ve been one of your earliest ancestors. But how did we get from a mouse-sized creature that looked more like a squirrel than a monkey -- to you, a member of Homo sapiens?

Hi everyone in the comment section! Just to echo what Kallie said at the beginning of the episode: our first-ever sticker is available now. Designed by the brilliant paleoartist Franz Anthony! Check it out: store.dftba.com/collections/eons/products/eons-sticker-decal
PBS Eons I low genus designations are somewhat arbitrary. But why do we put Homo where we do? Shouldn’t it logically go with the first species with a similar brain size and habits such as Heidelbergensis and Neanderthals?
I'm often accused of being a primate. Thanks for clearing that up PBS
I like that you have a shop but i'd really like a poster that looks more like your timeline scale where the eons - eras are all lined up on the left side. A poster styled like that with some neat facts and images from the show for each period would quickly find a home adorning my office where i design literal rockets!! (Also if you did them as a series of posters with more details i'd TOTALLY buy the set!)
Love the show, I cannot wait to for each new episode!!
Where do you guys take suggestions?
Steven Baumann I thought they did.... i.e. Homo Neanderthalis and Homo Heidelbergensis? Unless I'm misunderstanding your question, in which case I don't have the answer. Lol
It's great to see the whole family together again.
Except for the ones who are extinct.
@MX Yes why, is someone messing with the thermostat again?

We should do this *every* year.
MX Yes Don’t forget brother, we are also slaughtering ourselves with climate change. It does not discriminate
A really good sequel to this would be "Your chicken's place in the dinosaur family tree"
If chickens are dinosaurs (and I believe they are), then, actually, we're all just fish.
*parakeet
Unless 'fish' is a non-scientific word and permissibly paraphyletic. Because since turtles likely branch off of the diapsid line before synapsids and turtles are colloquially called reptiles then all Mammals and Birds would also be reptiles. Unless the turtle body plan is convergent over both modern anapsids with diapsid ancestors and a previous naturally anapsid line of turtles in which case reptiles could be monophyletic if they include birds but then the word turtle would become polyphyletic and I've gone cross-eyed O.o
@@kindlin What are you a Creationist?
"Fish" is a descriptive term, not a diagnostic one like "dinosaur" is.

We are incredibly lucky to be born in a time and place in the universe where we can actually understand and contemplate our history/existence.
I think humans have always tried to do so to the best of our abilities; in 200 years, a lot of things about current scientific theories will probably be seen as ridiculous.
Nnnnot really... But whatever makes you happy.
If intelligent life is indeed rare in the universe, we are truly special.
My place on the primate family tree doesn't matter cause primates don't stay on one branch for long.

Steve2323ZX Ah, I get it now.
This is cool. Having a common ancestor with other animals makes me feel more connected to them.
We aren't that different yet unique in our way.
Zoom in very closely and you'll see we're all just the same. All made of the same cells, just arranged in different ways to better suit our specific needs.
Well, technically speaking we are all related. It's a fact that gets thrown out almost always but stop and think about it like seriously, it's so freaking cool

I went to a religious school for K-12, so evolution was never covered in science classes. This twelve-minute video taught me more than an entire year of sophomore-level biology. Thanks :)
Not bashing but how are such schools even allowed? Doesn't that kinda defeat the purpose of schooling? That's like if I open up a school and decided to simply not teach mathematics.
Same here I thot growing up that dinosaur were just myths that I saw in movies I never knew that the were fossil out there. I really believed that we were kicked from heaven 😅. Till I find this channel and it open my eyes. I wish I saw it when I was younger I will love to have become an pedologist. I think that how you spell it sorry eng is self learned.
@@xroyalbloodx idek. I won’t get into it super heavy cause it’s not relevant but there’s no reason why religion and education should mix.
Teach what is known, what has evidence. Not what you believe. However, I would rather see religious schools than see freedom of religion be tampered with in any way so I guess it’s a trade off.
I had a hyperfixation once I think I've watched 8 years or seven years worth of evolution videos
@@Alepoudiitsa Do you mean paleontologist, those who study ancient forms of life and fossils?
It is never too late to do what you love. :-)
Considering its controversial status in taxonomic limbo, it's sort of darkly ironic that it's named "Purgatorius."
I...I think that's intentional...you do realize scientist named it right? We didn't it find it with a darkly ironic name plate?
First time I heard about it, was in the context of "This early mammal was around during the last days of the dinosaurs", so I thought maybe it was named Purgatorius because it lived in kind of a chaotic limbo-world that wasn't quite one thing or the other? Like, not dinosaurs in charge anymore really, but the mammals hadn't truly taken over yet either.
...it's really too bad about the Purgatory Hill thing. All of our other guesses are way more interesting. :P
Call me Pedanticus because I believe you mean coincidental and not ironic. Ironic would be like if it had the name "Classifiabilicus" or something.
James i request that you change your username to "James Pedanticus Kaminski"
@Giuarco97 i prolly would have said the exact same thing so props to you for the correction

@@Lutefisk445 FR
I never understand why creationists hate the idea that we share a common ancestor with other primates. I think it an honour to be related to such wonderful creatures !
Because for them animals are filthy
I don't know if it's important to many people, but we owe our ancestors every piece of life & joy we can obtain today, because they fought hard to survive in extreme conditions and adversities.
I'm proud of being a part of their MIllion Years Heritage...the ancients that faced terrible times, they didn't had our intellectual speed and brain power to understand what was happening....
Even that, they DID MAKE IT.
We are here thanks to Them.
Bravo! Well stated!
I hope thousands years later, our descendants will say the same about us. I wish they will thank us for the technologies we obtain in this age. I wish our descendants will be walking among the stars and never be bothered by diseases or lack of resources. I wish they will be living in an age of such prosperity that we us now would never have dreamed of. I wish they will thanks us for laying down the solid foundation for them just like our ancestors did for us.
We don't "owe" them anything besides the promise to continue surviving and keeping the species alive just like they did. We are, however, grateful that they took on the unfair battle of life, survived and evolved long enough for us to be here and be how we are today.
They fought, they hadn't "fighted"
*fought* + it’s a 3.5 billion year heritage + *they didn’t have* + *Even then, they MADE IT.*
This is more beautiful than any creation myth could ever hope to be.
No, it is a fact. Well established and substantiated fact actually.
@@koba763 Comparative anatomy, DNA sequencing and phylogenetic taxonomy. Look up what a primate is instead of proudly displaying your ignorance.
@@Shinigami15436 oh sorry i meant to reply to the original comment, which at the time seemed like it was against evolution. My comment must have made me seem like a creationist there lmao. I can assure you i’m not.
Omg yes. Religious people always get so offended when you talk to them about evolution. But as a religious person I think billions of years of perfecting each species is so much more compelling, and teaches us empathy, morality and love for the world around us. The orangutan is a close relative of ours and we are destroying its habitat for palm oil. If we acknowledged how closely related they were to us, would we still treat them that way?
THIS is the comment I have been waiting for. Evolution is mind blowing and it's verifiable!
5 years ago I didn’t believe in evolution. Now I’m obsessed and in love with it. Gotta love growing up in the Bible Belt.
Chris Bynum - What changed your mind, if you don’t mind me asking?
You can mix the 2 things. When someone is inventing something, he doesn't immediately come to the final form, there some prototypes before and he will updating/upgrading.
Dami same. Shows like Planet Earth were what gave me interest in learning more about the natural evolution of the animal kingdom. But RUclips definitely definitely helped me form my new opinion

Jeez , this video should be part of the curriculum in all high schools.
It would make biology and anthropology that much interesting and exciting !
This video is not far from being a work of genius , one can tell the amount of effort put into it , for instance the masterful summarising of a huge quantity of information into 12 mins , or the brilliant editing of images , diagrams , storytelling and verbal delivery .
Seriously, this video could change the lives of teenager education and their enjoyment of natural sciences.
Ps : the comedic choice of pictures of the apes and monkeys just takes this video to another level 😂
Just imagine how far back you would have to go back like this to find how closely related you are to say an octopus or a jellyfish, yet it could still be done. Amazing.
It's really weird to think that we're the last hominins, with so many others that are never gonna be here again. It would be so interesting to go back in time and meet different hominins.
You never know, maybe in the distant future we might have evolved to have multi-branches again
@@ProFow i think if space travel/colonization ever happens that will, but as we are now with how interconnected the whole world is i dont know if humans will be able to diversify on earth, its not any of us truly occupy different niches, and we all breed together even when from differing environments

Thank you, that's just what I was thinking.
I will never understand why religious nuts are bothered by this. It's SO COOL that we're just part of a big interwoven tapestry of living things. This is way more interesting and awe-inspiring.
They are bothered because evolution suggests that we can understand ourselves based on the laws of nature, and that our existence is finite. Religious nuts want to be eternal magic ghosts, unfathomable mysteries in the image of their favorite god.
Please don't generalize, I'm a practicing muslim and believe in evolution and have no conflicting ideas between religion and "laws of nature".
@@medad5502 well I hope you can see why people generalize about religions. They literally say in their books that they declare themselves as correct and everything else as false. You can choose to believe what you want out of the religions book, but if you don't follow the whole thing, isn't that blasphemous?
J Cortese
I am a devout Catholic and I LOVE these videos about evolution. The man behind the Big Bang Theory was a Catholic priest, Lemaître although the world only recognizes Hubble.
@@medad5502 I don't think "religious nuts" means every single religious person but those who truly lost their minds. Sadly they are the loudest and that's part of why people tend to generalize.
There are some days I wish our ancestors never climbed down from the trees. I wonder, is it too late to climb back up? I love this channel.
And now I'm remembering that one quote from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: "And some thought even the trees had been a bad idea, and that nobody should ever have left the oceans." XD
Well, technically, you can still live in the trees.
They likely didn't come down by choice.
I find it odd that religious people think it's crazy to think that humans came from monkeys yet say it's rational to believe that humans came from dirt
They demand so much evidence of evolution but yet will believe in magic described in an ancient book
I mean not all religious people think that. Conservative Judaism mostly accepts evolution in my experience
Not all God believers deny science..
Im a christian and i dont believe that text is to be taken literally. Like most things in the bible the conveyed message that humans were taken from the earth is symbolism and some sort of metaphor. But with everything you see on our planet cant you say that it may be possible that there is a collective consciousness that christians call god?
This is so much more beautiful than any just-so story, a grand, sweeping history that goes back so long that we can't conceptualize it.

“Humans are not proud of their ancestors, and rarely invite them round to dinner.”
― Douglas Adams
I think this is something we should change. An all primate dinner party might be great fun. Or alternatively it might be a disaster that would make a great RUclips video.
The use of the word 'ancestors' here is incorrect. It would be best to just call them 'distant cousins', as is usually used in videoes such as these.
But absolutely agreed. I've been thinking - i.e. having mental experiments/thoughts on how the social inter-play between myself and the different Ape & Semiiformes species might work & play out. Been fantastic in my head, thinking it would be a hundred times better in person.
You are, of course, correct. But the joke needs to use the word ancestors in order to work.
We invite our distant cousins over for dinner all the time! Then we eat them.
Extant primates are not our ancestors.

PLEASE CONTINUE THIS!!! It would be amazing to see where we sit in relation to other mammals. I've done a lot of browsing through Wikipedia to see this but it would be awesome to see it in your videos.
Part of the problem is that its hard to place where various more distantly related mammal groups fit in together with respect to each other beyond the level there are all placental mammals. Around the time of divergence mammals that would split to become the placental mammals left a very scarce fossil record dominated by teeth and trace fossils which isn't much to go by...
How have lorises evolved to be so cute?? WHY?? THEY ARE SO WONDERFUL!
Only for another primate species to keep them as exotic pets and cause them massive population declines
Simon Janevic Yes, that is very very sad.
It's because primates lack a tapetum lucidum, which is the reflective layer on the retina that gives most mammals better night vision. That means that nocturnal primates have had to evolve gigantic eyes instead.
@@simonj3413 Being cute in the eyes of homo sapiens is a massive advantage. It's the only reason pandas still exist
Lorises evolved about 9-10 million years before homo sapians appeared, so they've been cute to us for longer than we have existed. The more accurate question is why have we evolved to find them cute.
Im interested in the evolutionary history of angiosperms, the flowering plant. How did plants start reproducing like that?
I would like to redirect you to Benjamin Burgers channel for that, he has a pretty comprehensive outline on the evolution of plant reproduction here: ruclips.net/p/PL9o6KRlci4eAyElYru4zsTRJDZQqz37fF
I would recommend looking at lectures 27-37 for a look at the evolution history of land plants or just 36-37 on angiosperms in particular.
Aurgelmir87 Thank you :) but I was also hinting for this channel to cover it. Appreciated tho
This channel already covered this topic: ruclips.net/video/13aUo5fEjNY/видео.html
@Aurgelmir87 May your days be filled with glory and achieve Valhalla for sharing this information!
laser325 Yes, I really want to know more about the past of that. I'd ask "why would a plant...?" but the opportunistic animal that remains in me simply says "just because it was an available food source". ....But still, "WHY?? And HOW??"

Or the Naboo
Nolan Westrich We shared some gene from those species.
Nolan Westrich yep, especially since we are a hybrid of them
@@patrickmccurry1563 thanks. Now I gotta find out where Floriensis fits on the family tree. ^_^
I'm not remotely disappointed in the video, but I'd also love another video on other human species!
"They're basically built-in seat cushions"
But this misses the most important part. The reason they're so big, hairless and red is so that they can act as sexual signals. That is why they brighten during mating season and don't attain their appearance until after puberty. The same is true of female human breasts, which are much larger than they need to be just to provide ample milk.
It’s funny to me that a defining feature of Homininae is apparently a lack of these, since it seems like the sexual selection for those “features” kinda made a comeback with people in a downplayed variant
Don't you just know so much about the family?
The size of a female humans breasts doesn’t actually affect the amount of milk they produce.
@@chloe-tj2rv that was part of what the OP was saying.
u mean the female booty
My new favourite EONS video. Really amazing stuff. You consistently manage to deliver complex topics in easier-to-understand presentations. This rapid look back 60 million years is fascinating. I would have loved to see it go even further back..
You might want to check out the book, The Ancestor's Tale.
I searched and watch lot of videos and read articles but this video is very easy to understand and useful. Thanks
Came back to rewatch this and the human evolution playlist and I gotta say, this is the single best channel on RUclips. The only one I've even made a patron for. I hope it sticks around for a long, long time.
The script for this video is one of the best I’ve seen because it explains how we know what we know in a clear, logical, and readily understandable format. The illustrations are relevant and the characteristics described are things anyone could see if the look, say at a zoo, online, or in a museum. As an educator, I think this is one of the best the team at Eons has produced. Great job.
Simplifying us in just a frame is awesome but being a Wildlife science PhD scholar and being into taxonomy, I would really bow my head to all those researchers behind all those researches all these decades! Not easy,it's filled with a pure dedication, passion and patience, and moreover the love for the field! HATSOFF! - A modern Homind!
I don't understand why so many people have problem to understand the evolution.
because they are raised to dont understand it.
and to deny it as soon as they hear the word...
same as different people believe in different gods and different ideologies.
that are raised into it
It's kinda complicated too
Soo
This video has made me realize chimps are about a foot taller than my mental image of them.
I saw a live male orangutan in person once. His arm was as long as I am tall. Let me tell you, I've never left a zoo exhibit faster. I don't care how many walls you put between me and him, I'm not getting any closer unless he's sedated off his rump.
He’s not going to hurt you :(
Thanking Papa Purgatorius for not turning down that movie date back in the Paleocene

Also me: *avoids human contact and mistrusts people*
When your dog is also watching so he now thinks he's human.
You basically raised him to think that, don't blame the channel for that! 😁
I don't think I've ever been so focused on a video as I was for this one. Nice work. Love these videos. I may have said this before, but I have learned more about life on earth from these videos, then I ever did way back when I was in school.

That is why I hate people who eat monkeys. We should respect the family relationship that ties us to fellow primates.
unnecessarily eating any highly intelligent animal is pretty gross tbh
Thank you Eons for this wonderful episode. It's comforting to know where one lies on the family tree. Last time I visited the monkey enclosure at the zoo I was fascinated by their ear whorles that look so "human".
Thank you so much for this channel!! It's my absolutely favorite, especially the videos about human evolution!
I agree! I love watching every eposode! I cant belive we get this for free 😢😢😢. Once i finish school and start working, i will contribute to them!
It's funny when some humans get offended by getting called apes which they are apes
human superiority complex, mainly among those who are fundamentalist religious creationists. so pathetic.
Creationists do, not me. Because if someone called me an ape, I will even be enthusiastic and get interested about evolution, classification and taxonomic terms lol!
Totally watched the video before I commented. (who am I kidding, any youtuber that sees a video that just came out will comment before watching)
Anyway, I always click these videos. One of the most entertaining science channels out there.
What an reconstruction... Hats off to all of you... It is much better way to learn... I am the student of geology so understood it fully..again thanks to everyone.
One of the most beautiful videos I’ve seen. I’m happy to be a part of this family ❤
This was great. Thank you PBS Eons team.

Hey amazing video!!
Could you make a video about gondwanian terrestrial crocodilomorphs? Why they got extinct and it relation with the gondwana breake up?!
I would love an episode dedicated to all crocodilomorphs. The fact that there were many marine and fully terrestrial species until humans killed the last of them is kinda mind blowing. Our concepts of dragons and sea serpents probably derive from this amazing group of animals.
This is a fantastic video. Great job!
Learned more here than all of college.
I'm a simple man, I see a new Eons video, I click.
I'm in my first university level anthropology class and it is so interesting watching these videos after my classes! Very helpful with solidifying that information that I picked up at school, and shown in both an educational and entertaining way!
