Human evolution science keeps expanding for the longest time it was thought Africa was the origin. It is seeming more like a global phenomenon as time passes. I have said this a lot. Don't look at Earth from today's lens, look at it from the 900k years ago lens. What animals were around, what sort of animals we hunted and sought after. How communities were formed and how we were able to safely breed. The answer is less complicated, we had a lot of closely genetic relatives all over the planet which we reproduced with creating a various diverse human race. And we is as in past caveman like ancestors. I am not refuting the earliest ancestors found in Africa, I am just pointing out it is easier to find ancestral sites from an undeveloped part of the world.

Even China has dug fossils of ancient humans, but we have yet to really put that to study.
However again Africa is the perfect place to find the ancient human origins because it has had less human development in terms of civilization than the rest of the world.
