1) The most popular credence is that Homo
Erectus/Ergaster gave rise to Homo Heidelbergensis, which in turn is
the ancestor of the Neanderthal. However, each of the species I
mentioned, to me, appear pretty much the same. They all have weak
chins and brow ridges. Their face shape generally stays the same.
The only difference is an augmentation in brain size. Why are they
considered different species?
