Map Quiz for Chapter 1

World map showing the continents as they were during these eras. The map shows the paths taken during the migration, as well as the areas that were either covered by an ice sheet or had more land exposed due to lower sea levels. The key for this map is in the bottom right corner. Information included on the key is: purple shading - ice sheet 20,000 years ago; green shading - land exposed by lower sea levels, 20,000 years ago; Red arrow - expansion of the Homo erectus; 1 million years ago (in red type) - earliest habitation by Homo erectus; Blue arrow - expansion of Homo sapiens; 3,500 years ago (in blue type) - earliest habitation by Homo sapiens. Areas covered by the ice sheet on the map are the northern portion of North America, Greenland, Iceland, and Northern Europe, as well as Antarctica and the southernmost tip of South America. Areas where land was exposed by lower sea levels includes almost all of the eastern coasts of South America, the eastern coast of Central America, all of the gulf coast land in North America, and the east coast in North America up until it hits the ice sheets. All island masses in this area also are showing lower sea levels. There are green shadings around all of the coastal areas of Asia, the Middle East, and Europe that are not covered by the ice sheet. All of Australia's coast has some green shading. Africa is mostly without green shading, although there is a little bit on the southeastern side near Madagascar. First, the migration pattern of Homo erectus (red arrow). It starts in Africa where it says 1.7 million years ago. There are two arrows starting from central Africa. One goes up to the very northwest corner of Africa. The other goes up through Africa, across the Persian Gulf and modern-day Saudi Arabia where it splits into two. One arrow goes to Europe, where it indicates the earliest habitat was one million years ago. The other part of the arrow goes to Asia where it splits again. The arrow going to the central part of Asia indicates the earliest habitat was one million years ago. The arrow going to Southeast Asia points to Sumatra and indicates the earliest habitat was 1.3 million years ago. That is it for the migration patterns of Homo erectus. Next, the migration pattern for Homo sapiens (blue arrow). It starts in Africa where it says 100,000 years ago. Two arrows point from central Africa to Northwestern Africa where it says 40,000 years ago. There is another small arrow going from central Africa to the area near the Persian Gulf. There is then a large blue arrow that has many breaking off points to the different parts of the world. This arrow starts in central Africa and goes through modern-day Saudi Arabia. It breaks off there into Europe (earliest habitat 40,000 years ago), Southeast Asia and Asia (earliest habitat 70,000 years ago). Arrows break off from there to go to Australia (earliest habitat 60,000-40,000 years ago) and Oceania (earliest habitat 3,500 years ago). Continuing from the main arrow in Asia, it goes up through the northwestern part of Asia, through the artic ocean. Part of the arrow breaks off to go to Iceland, while the arrow also breaks off to go to three different areas in North America (earliest habitat 30,000-15,000 years ago). From North America one arrow travels through Central America into South America where it breaks off into two arrows (earliest habitat 14,000 years ago). Finally, also branching off from the main arrows that traveled from Africa through Asia are arrows going to smaller islands. They go to: Madagascar (earliest habitat 1,500 years ago); Easter Island (earliest habitat 1,500 years ago); Hawaiian Islands (earliest habitat 1,500 years ago); New Zealand (earliest habitat 1,000 years ago)
