Evolution of human appears parallel to the progressive development of brain and language skills. As such, the evolution of individual species in the sequence of their appearance is:
1. Homo habilis → Homo erectus → Ramapithecus → Neanderthal → Homo sapiens
2. Ramapithecus → Homo habilis → Homo erectus → Neanderthal → Homo sapiens
3. Homo sapiens → Ramapithecus → Homo habilis → Neanderthal → Homo erectus
4. Neanderthal → Ramapithecus → Homo habilis → Homo erectus → Homo sapiens
