Twenty four million years ago when our ancestors lived in the tropical forests of central Africa, they probably ate plants and fruit, and from time to time a few insects. When this prehistoric people started to travel north into the savannah their diet changed too, and they began to eat a lot of seeds and other plant material. And this is probably how man lived for the next twenty two million years, eating roots, seeds, fruit, nuts, vegetables and occasionally a little meat.

How do we know? One important clue is our teeth. Just like animals which eat plants, humans have teeth called molars which are need to break down hard food such as seeds.

Archeologists can also tell us about diets of the past. In fact, we know a lot about the human diet over the last 7,000 years.
