DNA analysis showing H. erectus and modern humans did not have a common evolutionary ancestor n archaeological dig finding fossil remains of A. africanus in Europe and Asia Finding tools used by H. erectus in continents other than Africa A discovery of fossils of H. erectus showing that they walked upright

got an informative para for u by reading this tell me what u think so the ans must be... The name Homo ergaster means ‘working man.’ This name was chosen to document the discovery of a variety of tools, such as hand-axes and cleavers, near the fossil remains. Currently, controversy surrounds whether H. ergaster or the later, Asian, H. erectus is more closely related to modern humans. Homo ergaster is one of the more-problematic species in the human lineage because there is no clear distinction between H. ergaster and H. erectus; generally most H. ergaster and early H. erectus fossils geographically are confined to Africa. Sometimes, H. ergaster has been categorized as a subspecies of H. erectus, but most researchers consider that too few differences exist to separate them as species. In fact, some researchers deny any validity to the species H. ergaster at all. There also are a number of fossils that are considered as representing H. ergaster and H. erectus. The most-notable specimen of this type is the nearly complete skeleton of a young boy found near Lake Turkana, known as "Nariokotome boy". These remains will be discussed under the section describing H. erectus, as the specimen is most commonly classified as such.
