Lamarck's theory of evolution proposed that organisms could pass on acquired traits to their offspring, including changes that resulted from challenges faced in their environment. Lamarck suggested that this was the mechanism by which species evolved over time. While modern science has largely rejected many of Lamarck's specific ideas, the general concept of organisms being shaped by their environment and passing on changes to their offspring has some validity. The idea that challenges faced by early humans in their environment led to changes in brain size (and other traits) is consistent with this concept.
