There are masses of beautifully crafted and informative sites out there on early and pre-historic man. I have therefore graded then "A", "B" or "C." For a site to be graded "C" does not mean it is bad, it just means that, in my humble opinion, it is not quite as good or as easy to use as "A" or "B." You may think differently!
I must admit this is the best site I've come across and it has that giant of the science Don Johanson as your guide! You will need a broadband connection. Grade A
When it comes to the study of early man they don't come any bigger than the Leakey Family. I have three books by various members. They come very close to Dart and Broome in the story of man's origin in Africa. Grade B.
John Stewart, the creator of the site, is a member of a research group at the Free University, Brussels. It traces the evolution of society rather than man's physical development. I enjoyed wondering through its pages. Grade A.
Good site but will be better when finished. One small moan - black background and dark text makes it difficult for my old eyes! Grade C (B when completed).
A very good site from the content point of view. However, you have to keep using the bottom scroll bar, some of the graphics don't work and that flaming, flashing menu can drive you up the wall. Apart from that - Grade B.
This monument to man's early artistry deserves a better site. The content is fine, it's the long time you wait for parts of it to load that tends to send you to sleep. Grade B.
This is one heck of a site. Just set aside a couple of hours to wonder through the never-ending pages. By the end you will feel you can shake hands with your ancestors. Alright, so it's a links site but so is this! Grade A+.
