Homo erectus divided into two groups long ago 

1.African Negreto(Sc. term) runners in Savanna 

2.European Neanderthal (White) Hunters in cold areas

Even today Africans are best runners and Europeans are intelligent species because they need clothes and caves in winter/night  and they hunt for survival.

Lacking size or weapons, this early human species most likely used brains, agility, and social skills to escape from predators, the anthropologist says. 
 
Sounds good. Now, explain this; a troop of Australopithicus, lets say a group of thirty individuals ( a rather large group ), six dominant males, eight young-adult females, eight older individuals of both sexes, and eight juveniles. They are suddenly confronted by a pride of lions, sixteen lionesses, a coalition of four big males, and a host of cubs. 
Exactly how do these 'early human ancestors' use their brains and social skills to outwit the lions? 

================================
In the above case I as dominant male has only one option to safe guard my species (Africa runner not EU hunters)

1. Push all older women to lions 
2. All older men  
3. All younger boys 
4. Myself 
5. Young females
6. Last Girl child will die. 

Regarding the dispersal of Homo Erectus, the initial spawn migrated to Georgia and Peking/Mongol area almost a million years ago and died right before modern human expansion in these areas. Within Africa, the remaining Homo Erectus populations morphed into many subspecies of humans such as Homo Rhodesiansis, which evolved into archaic Homo Sapiens, and thus the modern humans: other groups of Homo Erectus morphed into the large-bodied Homo Heidelbergensis and stocky Homo Neanderthalensis in Europe/North Africa/West Asia.

Uhh...no proof that Europeans are more intelligent than Africans, or vice versa. And in fact, many of the initial Homo Sapiens populations in Europe were the hunter-gatherer types, so they ran plenty like most other Paleolithic humans. Reply
