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

    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)
