The 250,000-year-old skeleton of homo heidelbergensis revealed the first hominid with a brain in the same size-range as ours. The discovery of spears weighted like javelins, evidence of organized hunting and division of labor suggested that human intelligence had advanced dramatically and that hominids were able to communicate with each other effectively. The first signs of ornamentation, intended to increase sexual attraction, signalled the emergence of the first two-parent families, and perhaps even love?
