- mc32 5y agoWouldn’t that upend most theories about when the people who left Africa left Africa? Never mind, new estimates go as far back as 300,000ya.
- elvongray 5y agoThere are other hominids apart from homo sapiens during those periods. These will probably be Denisovans
- grillvogel 5y agomost of the established timelines are based on "well this is the oldest thing we've found so far". most of it is probably wrong
- mytailorisrich 5y agoNo, it's known that Homo Erectus left Africa and colonised Eurasia up to East Asia a bit more than 2 million years ago. The estimate on when "we" left Africa often means modern humans, Homo Sapiens.
