DEFINITION OF OUR WORLD IN THE
PAST !!!!

 The world refers to all the

people who live on this
planets, and our societies,
institutions, and ways of life.
 Its a beautiful part of the
world.
HOW THE EARTH BEGAN
 About 4,700 million years ago, there was only the Sun.
 The Sun was surrounded by a moving cloud of dust.
 The cloud of dust whirled for millions of years and the dust
began to become balls of hot liquid.
 After about 4,600 years, these balls of liquids became the
planets.
 One of them was the Earth.
 I don’t want to protect the
environment, I want to
create a world where the
environment doesn’t need
protecting !!!!!
 About 4,000 million years ago, the earth began to cool.
 Volcanoes brought out fire and hot melted rocks from inside
the Earth.
 They began to cool and became valleys and mountains of
rocks.
 There was no life on Earth .
 The earth was all rocks without water.
HOW LIFE BEGAN ON EARTH.
 Earth formed about billion years
ago.
 Life began with autotrophic
bacteria/prokaryotes.
 3.5 billion year old rocks have
been found with bacteria fossils.
 1st bacteria were likely ancestors
of today’s archaebacteria.
EVIDENNCE
 It is not possible to be certain how life on Earth began
because:
1. Earth is about 4,500 million years old.
2. There is evidence living things existed on Earth at least 3,500
million years ago.
3. No-one was there to record how life began.

 The best we can do is study simple organisms and the

chemistry of living things to work out scientific theories.

 The main theory is that living things developed from

molecules that could copy themselves, rather as DNA does.
 LIFE OF AN ANIMALS…
 The first animal which grew on land was a fish which crawled up
on dry ground.
 Animals began on Earth because there were plants to eat and
oxygen to breathe.
WHERE DO WE COME FROM???
 Scientists called Archaeologists
and Paleontologists dug the
earth to look for the first people
on earth.
 They found bones of many
monkey-men whose skulls and
teeth were more like ours.
 First monkey-men did not know
how to grow crops and built
houses.
 They move place to place in
search of food and the food that
they ate were fruits and small
animals .
 Short .
 Disproportionately short arms.

 Slightly less than half the

amount of cranial capacity as
modern day humans .
 “ Handy-Man”

 Lived 2.3-1.4 years ago.

 Travel; Oldowan tools were

found that made the scavenger
lifestyle easier.
HOMO HABILIS
 3 to 1 million years ago.
 Large brain than ape.

 Made simple tools from stone.

 Found in Eastern and South Africa.

 Did not migrate.

 The homo habilis ate leaves, woody plants, and some

animal tissues.
 They hunt and gather in groups because it was easier to
stay alive.
CHARACTERISTICS OF HOMO
HABILIS
Brain
 Relatively bigger brain around 680 cubic centimetres.

Skull
 Brain case had become fuller.

 Beginning of a slight forehead appearing .

 Face smaller and shorter than those of earlier ancestors.

 The foramen magnum is repositioned farther underneath

the skull.
HOMO ERECTUS
 They are also known as upright man from the Latin meaning,
“to put up, set upright.
 Around 1.6-1.8 million years ago.

 The 1st species to migrate out of Africa and appears almost

everywhere around the world .
 The 1st human ancestor to have similar limb and torso
proportions to those seen in modern humans.
 It was the 1st human ancestor to rely on the invented, learned
and passed down adaptations of culture for survival, e.g. ability
to control fire.
 Its cranium was different from that of its evolutionary ancestor-
Homo habilis.
 Homo Erectus made fire foe
warmth and it eliminates
disease.
CHARACTERISTIC OF HOMO
ERECTUS
SKULL
 An increase in brain size to about 99.0cm.

 Large face with low, sloping forehead, a massive brow ridge

and a broad, flat nose.
 Bones of the skull were very thick and formed a small central
ridge, known as a midline keel, along the top of the skull.
 Skull was broad and long with sharp angles at the rear, unlike
the curve found in modern humans.
JAW AND TEETH
 Jaw was large and thick without a pointed chin.

 Molar teeth had large roots but were decreasing towards a

more modern size.
 Slowly modern wise people
lived everywhere.
 As their brain and body
developed like ours.
WHAT IS HISTORY ?????
 About 3,000 B.C the people of Iraq and the Egyptians
invented writing.
 About 2,500 B.C. people in India and Pakistan built big
cities in Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro.
 About 500 B.C. a young Hindu prince in India left
everything to become a teacher because he wanted
people to find happiness. We call him Lord Buddha.
 In 746 A.D. Guru Rinpoche came to Bhutan.

 In 1616 the Zhabdrung came to Bhutan.

 In 1907 our country Bhutan became a kingdom.

TEACHING OF LORD BUDDHA
 Originally passed on orally.
 Meeting of Buddhists at special
places during rainy seasons.
 People were used to remembering
things ‘off by heart’ as writing was
not common practice.
The Buddha’s teaching includes:
1. The Four Noble Truths.

2. The Five Precepts.

3. The Noble Eightfold path.
