The answer is simple.
It was not "humans" or any "human" species we would link to our tribe that can take credit for the path we now find ourselves on...
Our evolvement ..everything we are..speech , writting etc can be traced to our best friend..the humble faithful dog....
There was a point where many humaniods could have stepped forward to claim the world but if not for the dog our tribe would have never got on top... Neanderthals were stronger and as much as folk hate the next statement..Neanderthals were better placed to over come us than we could overcome them...enter the dog... the dog let us let go our reliance upon the sence of smell ..something that took up much of our brain potential... dogs smelt for us..and being able to usxe that particular sence was at one point more critical to survival than sight or hearing... dogs befriended our ancestors... for what ever reason they selected our ancestors as the species they would support..and support us they did... whilst the Neandathals had no daogsd they had to reserve a large section of their brains to manage the sence of smell... try and comprehend what it was like way back then..smell was so important and yet the wonderful dog decided to do this job for us..and so we were able to leave that job to our dogs and release brain power to address the next level..speech... without the dog we would have been wiped out by the Neandathals ..they were stronger and as much as all hate to believe it..at that point they were better than our tribe... but with our new abilities of communication and a permanent gaurd with us at all times we got so far up on the Neandathals we finally pushed them out of the Universe... but without the dog they would have beat us and we would be extinct not them...so I say this... in answer to the question outlined in the post... the answer you seek is the humble dog... without the humble dog humans would never have survived and never would have had brain space to develope speech..and of course communication etc...so I say it was the dog that got us going to develope the power of speech so as to eliminate other competing humaniods
