Homo
Homo ni jenasi inayojumlisha binadamu na spishi zinazofanana sana naye.
Jina homo ni la Kilatini, likiwa na maana ya "mtu", na kiasili linahusiana na neno "ardhi".[1]
Jenasi hiyo inakadiriwa kuanza kuwepo walau miaka 2.3 milioni iliyopita[2][3] kutokana na australopithecine.
Spishi ya kwanza ya jenasi hiyo ni ile ya Homo habilis, anayefikiriwa kutokana na Australopithecus garhi. Lakini mnamo Mei 2010 yalipatikana mabaki ya Homo gautengensis, spishi inayofikiriwa kuwa ya kale kuliko Homo habilis.[4]
Kutokana na Homo habilis walipatikana Homo ergaster, Homo erectus, Homo georgicus, Homo antecessor, Homo rhodesiensis, Homo heidelbergensis n.k.
Homo neanderthalensis na mtu wa Denisova labda ni nususpishi za Homo sapiens zilizoweza kuzaliana na watu waliotokea Afrika.[5][6][7]
Spishi zote za jenasi Homo zimekoma, isipokuwa Homo sapiens (binadamu).
