The evidence of early Homo sapiens diet stems from multiple lines of evidence, and there is a relative abundance of information due to both a larger relative population footprint and more recent evidence. A key contribution to early human diet likely was the introduction of fire to hominins toolkit.
The incorporation of meat into the diet was a milestone for the human evolutionary lineage, a potential catalyst for advances such as increased brain size. ... an important early human ancestor ...
The modern human's waking day is 16 hours, while many mammals are only awake for half as many hours. [46] Additionally, humans are most awake during the early evening hours, while other primates' days begin at dawn and end at sundown. Many of these behavioral changes can be attributed to the control of fire and its impact on daylight extension ...

[ 1 ] The diet avoids food processing and typically includes vegetables , fruits , nuts , roots , and meat and excludes dairy products , grains , sugar ...
Early human nutrition was largely determined by the availability and palatability (tastiness) of foods. [2] Humans evolved as omnivorous hunter-gatherers, though our diet has varied significantly depending on location and climate. Historically, the diet in the tropics tended to depend more heavily on plant foods, while diet at higher latitudes ...

Possible early ancestors of catarrhines include Aegyptopithecus and Saadanius. 35-20 Ma Proconsul. Catarrhini splits into 2 superfamilies, Old World monkeys (Cercopithecoidea) and apes . Human trichromatic color vision had its genetic origins in this period. Catarrhines lost the vomeronasal organ (or possibly reduced it to vestigial status).
