What distinguishes modern man from the ancestor of anthropogenesis?

There are several versions of the appearance of a person in the world. Based on the theory of the origin of man according to Darwin, then we can say that anthropogenesis took place hundreds of thousands of years ago, when the first great apes appeared on Earth. Over time, man evolved, but in his early stages of existence he was different from the modern one. He performed most of the work with the help of physical labor. Then a person did not have a producing economy and the sphere of goods and services, there was only natural exchange.
