Dear MEL Topic Readers,
New discoveries fundamentally change the picture of human evolution in Africa
While the oldest human mummies were produced only thousands of years ago, the origins of complex Homo sapiens dated back to around 70,000 to 125,000 years ago in Africa. The climate of the continent in those days seems to have been more forgiving to early humans to evolve. With omega-3 fatty acids, an essential nutrient for brain growth in seafood, it had been believed that coastal sites in Africa were the origin of humankind that were capable of symbolic thought and complex behavior. But a recent study found that such innovations and skills, which helped Homo sapiens evolved in groups, existed even in the inner part of the continent. The researchers of the study think the search for the human origin center needs to be expanded from one region to others including inland. It seems that archeologists will have to work more in harsh environments like deserts to find more evidence of human origins.
Enjoy reading the article and learn about this historic finding of hour origins.
