Abstract
As we meet Homo sapiens sapiens at the first milestone of our evolutionary journey, we are surprised to recognize him as one of us: an anatomically modern man. He can talk to us and shows us his beautiful cave art. The emergence of Homo sapiens sapiens completely changed the story of human and societal evolution. The phenomenal speed of his emergence actually changed human evolution into human revolution, which then became a turning point in the evolutionary saga of the human race. It completed the transformation from Homo to Homo sapiens sapiens to modern man.
