When the fossil evidence is viewed from a creationist's point of view, the major classes of fossils are found to exist at the same time and also some at the same places. Instead of having an orderly progression from lower primates to man, where one species changes into another, we find contemporaries, contradicting the theory of evolution with regard to man. Neanderthal, archaic Homo sapiens and Homo erectus all lived as contemporaries at one time or another. There is no trend for robust forms evolving into more gracile forms. In the case of Neanderthals and archaic Homo sapiens, the more robust forms are the more recent.
Humans appear in the fossil record as already human.
By virtue of being human contemporaries, the Australopithecines are disqualified as human ancestors. At the bottom of Bed I in the Olduvai gorge is a circular stone structure 14 ft. in diameter made by humans, similar to those in use today by the Okombambi tribe of Southwest Africa. Evolutionists resist these conclusions. We find modern Homo sapien fossils being found with Neanderthals, archaic Homo sapiens and Homo erectus.
