Hominids rise
Today, most researchers consider modern people hominin.
Nevertheless, the question "where do we come from" can be a difficult question for a non-disciplined person from a scientific standpoint. This is partly due in part to the fact that the fossil record of human evolution seems to grow rapidly as each new reconnaissance writer often claims that textbooks need to be rewritten.
The interdisciplinary nature of paleoanthropology also means that new discoveries that help us to understand our ancestors have not always been acquired in the form of new fossils.
These findings are gleaned from advances in a range of disciplines, including archeology, comparative anatomy, earth sciences, evolutionary biology, genomics, and primatology.
