Hobo Habilis were somewhat like modern humans. They were short and slender and their bones were similar to modern humans. They also had very similar hands and feet. Hobo Habilis had flatter, thinner, and less heavily browed foreheads than Australopithecines, and were much more mentally and physically advanced. Their cranial capacity is 775, more than Australopithecines, yet smaller than modern humans. Their teeth were also similar to modern humans. They had larger incisors and canines than Australopithecines, and smaller molars.
Hobo Habilis’ were (as far as we know) the first to use tools. They used them for digging, scraping, and cutting meat from animals. They made them by flaking, and hitting them with other stones. Hobo Habilis’ would walk UP TO NINE MILES just to find a place where volcanic rock naturally is, because it was supposedly the best rock to use for tools.
