Time period: 400.000 - 300,000BC
Grok and his tribe of Morotopithicines, a species linking apes and humans, sat around the firepit in their cave. He grunts at the tiny Morotopithicine baby that his mate, Miga, is holding. He is afraid it has been hurt cause it made strange noise that was not a grunt or a growl. No one in Grok's tribe had heard it before. It was new and weird sound.
The tribe's elders had said the sound had never been heard in other Morotopithicine tribes either.
It was really weird.
Again the sound came from the baby Morotopithicine: Googoo lassy baba gaga.
The tribes elders had come to the conclusion that the baby was making the weird sounds cause it was sick. And they are now preparing to cure the baby by beating the shit out of it with their heavy clubs.

OOC:
According to most scientists, a baby would not have communicative skills. They pick up language from their parents. According to most Evolutionists, language probaby developed from the grunts, but a word didnt just suddenly come from a baby. Most likely, they continued to grunt even after their vocal cords devleoped, and then, language might have begun to be developed, most likely in response to the environment.

IslamicJihad sends martyrs to kill off these nonmuslim devils.
We will wipe every single Morotopithicine off the face of the planet.
It is Allah's will that we wipe out these primitives.

Way to stomp all over his thread.

Actually he is right. But I was not done any way. This is about the development of language, not speech. Need to change the date.
Cause speech developed earlier than this.

Until now, all Morotopithicines spoke the same tongue. A basic psuedolanguage.
But in this year of 25,000 BC, this tribe of Morotopithicines and developed a distinct language. The tribe was now branching out from the mother tongue (due to environmental factors as noted by Attica).
And the Morotopithicine baby was but the first of many.

OOC: In rl the Morotopithicines lived and died over 20 million years ago. But in this rp they survived.

About 50,000 years later.
Grok's great descendant, Gog had begun using what would later be called human speech.
His favorite activities was hunting mastadon or Cave bear with his handaxe and spears.
Of the two, the Cave Bear was the most dangerous. It could claw you to death if you got to close. But he could not turn back, the whole tribe needed the meat from this one cave bear. To humans it would mean death, but the only thing the Morotopithicines think of is food.
They would usually eat apples and oranges as Morotopithicine's preferred diet is fruit but none were availabe to the famine. Vegetation was becoming more and more scarce.
Gog's uncle, Magog, had deep scars from his bear hunts. Including a deep gash on his thigh that basically crippled him and rendered him unable to hunt cave bear anymore. So he suffered the humiliation of having to stay back with the women.

This is evil and we must destroy this entire species before they advance anyfurther. Great Allah, I swear they are evolving before our very eyes.
As warriors of Islam we shall destroy this entire species before it gets to the point of developing tanks and bombers.
better, we'll just take over the world of 250,000bc and that way, the entire modern NS world will be under Islamic rule and there won't be anything any one can do about. Muhahahahaha! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

The emperor stands and begins to speak

"islamic jihad you will stop these acts of aggression or my nation will destroy you, the world has no place for such reckless hate."

As far as I know, Whittier is the only nation on NS with timetravel technology. Our time machine, which was originally as transdimensional travel vehicle, is heavily guarded.
