The title is hyperbolic clickbait, but the information within it is accurate--fossils of a "missing link" between the great apes and modern man was discovered in Europe two and a half years ago, and the fossils predate the earliest-discovered hominid fossils in Africa.


The fossil record in Africa may simply be more accessible. The early discoveries certainly focused research dollars there too.

Probably because Siberia wasn’t always a frozen wasteland.

When the Australopithecus shut down their factories and industry in Siberia, global warming in that area ceased and it became cold.

There are two major theories now.

1. People originated in Africa and spread from there

2. People originated in different places all evolving around the same time give or take a few thousand years.

I tend to believe people developed originally in areas nearish the equator. Makes sense because the World was much colder then

It’s my understanding that as pre-agriculture hunter gatherers, they were there for heards of caribou and deer, and the occasional mammoth(which apparently were used for materials rather than for food)

Strikes me as more likely that there were multiple lines from great apes to hominids to modern man in different areas of the world that eventually converged on humanity as we know it over a span of millions of years.

This seems very unlikely to me. If different lines evolved separately they would probably be incompatible, like zebras and horses. It seems intuitive that there was one lineage that spread out. From where, I wouldn’t know. But like you, my expertise is in guessing.

Honestly? White people.

For all the intelligent things we do, we have a tendency to push the limits.

20k years ago some baws were sitting around a fire and one looked at the mountains in the distance and wanted to know what was beyond them.

If you think about post ELE when mammals were about to make their run for dominance, they were more likely to be nonequitorial.

His master said “Oogg!” which was the command for STAY.

He stayed.
