If you're referring to Homo heidelbergensis, I believe the jury is still out on that.

  No, it's not. There's an enormous amount of fossil evidence now that humans evolved in Africa and radiated from there. There's also the genetic evidence that has solidified the already pretty iron clad evidence.

    So, assuming this 1.5M fossil evidence is true, are we saying that there were at least 3 separate waves out of Africa that are known about? - Non-homo sapien hominids (Neanderthals etc) - Homo sapiens 1.5M years ago - Homo sapiens a few hundred thousand years ago

      More than that depending on what you mean. Homo habilis migrated out at least once I believe.
