Archaic Homo sapiens were hominins that existed during the Middle Pleistocene. The morphologically fall somewhere in between Homo sapiens and Homo erectus. In the course of the readings, we studied different aspects about the Archaic Homo sapiens. There are certain behaviors and cognitive skills that I think separated them and allowed modern humans to out-compete them despite the fact that they coexisted with them. One of the major reasons was due to the enhanced cognitive abilities of Homo sapiens which was not matched by the Archaic Homo sapiens.
