We’re going broad with this one given the population and the size.

    Y’all migrated out of Africa like the rest of us.

        Everything I’m finding on Google is saying Morocco, with scientists suggesting we probably evolved all over Africa.

            I’m gonna need a link for that cause that makes no sense at all in the context of all other finds.

                That’s unfortunate, since many of would find that fascinating reading. I remember reading something similar but more like: there was a wave of migration to central Europe much earlier than expected

                Everything I just looked at still puts Affrica as origin

                Although I don’t remember reading …. Each wave of migration out of Africa was different hominids. They all coexisted for a long time but eventually the hominids from the last wave succeeded and the others died out

            • AFAIK, the “out-of-africa” hypothesis isn’t so much based on skeleton findings.

              It’s more based on some thoughts. One of them is that africa has a “high genetic variability” which they see as proof that humanity originated there, even though i doubt the soundness of that argument.

              The second reason is some kind of racism: “if africans are really inferior beings, that must be because life originated there and emigrated and africans simply stayed behind in both space and development.” (not my thoughts)
