Are you as fit as a Cro-magnon man...or should I say...do you have the features and athletic abilities of a Cro-magnon? Now those who don't know who Cro-magnon man was, Cro-magnon man was the first race of modern humans to enter Europe. They first appeared between 35,000 and 45,000 years ago in the Caucasus mountains. Cro-magnons co-existed with the Neanderthals for several thousand years and developed the most advanced culture during the ice age, creating art, religion, projectile weapons, and even basic calender systems. Cro-magnons disappeared 8,000-10,000 years ago, evolving into modern Europeans. Do you possess the traits and/or athletic abilities of Cro-magnon man. Find out below for the requirements to be like Cro-magnon man.
1. Ethnicity
a: You must be a full-blooded Caucasoid. That is, you have to be of 100% European or Arabian descent. You can be descended from both groups, but your ancestors all have to be European or Arabian. You cannot be descended from Negroids (Black man), Mongoloids (Asian man, Polynesian man, Amerindian man, Indian man), or Australoids (Aborigine man).
2. Size
a: you must be at least 1.8 meters (5.9 ft) tall. You can be any height above this, but you cannot suffer from any sort of growth/height disorder. Preferred height is 1.9-2 meters (6.2-6.6 ft) Since women are shorter, they get some slack. Minimum height requirement for women is 1.7 meters (5.6 ft). Preferred height is 1.75-1.85 meters (5.8-6.06 ft)
b: Males must weigh at least 80 kg (176 lbs) and females must weigh at least 70 kg (154 lbs).
c: Your BMI must register at 20 so as not to be too thin. Unless you are rather muscular, BMI must not exceed 26.
Fitness
a: Cro-magnon man had strong musculature. You must be able to at least bench press your own body weight. You must be able to dead lift at least 20-25% your own body weight to match a Cro-magnon man's strength.
b: Cro-magnons had robust leg bones, about as robust as the leg bones of a modern African Bushman, but more robust than a modern White man's leg bones. To match their running speed, you must be able to run at least 30 kph (18.6 mph).
c: You must be able to sustain a continuous jogging speed of 10 kph (6.2 mph) for at least 2 hours.
Crainofacial Morphology
a: You must possess a straight, tall forehead.
b: The eyes should have rectangular orbits (sockets).
c: You must a prominent nose. It should not be very robust nor should it be narrow.
d: You must possess a jaw with little prognathism. That is...it should project inward at all and it should either project outward slightly or not all.
e: You must have enough space for your wisdom teeth and retain them within the jaw. The teeth should of average robusticity. Molars should be large, premolars should be medium size with relatively sharp ends, canines should be sharp and pointed, lower incisors should be small, and upper incisors should be large and robust.
f: You must possess a prominent chin,
g: You must possess an overall long, fairly low skull with a wide face.
h: Your brain must be at least 1,600-1,800 cu cm in mass (most modern humans only have a brain 1,300-1,450 cu cm in mass).
Those are the traits required to be a Cro-magnon man. Here is a gallery of Cro-magnon man:
