[[7. Sweating]]
There were many factors in the brain growth of ''H. Ergaster'' and ''H. Erectus''. Their diet began to include meat and the protien and nutrients from the meat gave their brains the necessary vitamins to grow and expand. Also, their means of getting food - hunting and scavenging - demanded more intelegence, to coem up with tactics concerning how to find food and what is good to eat. Also, the actual actions of making prmiative tools literaly expanded the brain capacity. Lastly, the search for material for tools required memory, unlike just eating grass os picking leaves off a tree did. For more information, go to page 18 in the the manual.

1.9 million years ago, another species of Homo named Homo Ergaster (the worker) emerged in Africa. This species is also known as Homo Erectus, which is sometimes used for later populations in Asia. Homo Ergaster had a rounded cranium and a prominent browridge. Its teeth were also reduced in size. Several features that distinguish H.Ergaster from H. Erectus are thinner bones of the skull and the lack of an obvious sulcus (a depressing just behind the browridge). The average was measured 950cc to H. habilis 800cc. Using this improved mental capability, H. Ergaster took to the art of tool making beyond just chipping rocks. They developed the ability to make symmetrical pear-shaped hand axes. They made it easier for H. Ergaster to butcher carcasses of meat and clean the flesh off the hide. The sharing of this meat also allowed relationships to develop in the community. They also used different sounds to communicate with each other. Food also led to conflict between H. Ergaster. They fought over food and mates more often then other species.
