[QUOTE]Originally posted by Tyrannohotep: [QB] [URL=https://www.livescience.com/61532-oldest-human-fossils-outside-africa.html]Human History Gets Longer: Oldest Fossils Outside of Africa Found[/URL] [QUOTE]The oldest fossils of modern humans outside Africa have been discovered in Israel, a new study finds. [qb]The newly revealed jaw and teeth are estimated to be up to 194,000 years old.[/qb] This makes these fossils at least 50,000 years older than modern human fossils previously unearthed outside Africa, and closer in age to when recent genetic results suggested modern humans may have first left Africa. These new findings suggest that modern humans may have had more time to interact and interbreed with archaic human lineages outside of Africa than previously thought. The discovery also sheds light on the routes modern humans might have taken while dispersing from Africa.[/QUOTE]So would this have any impact on time estimates for the migration of [i]living[/i] non-Africans' ancestors outside the Mother Continent? Or do you think this could be a "dead-end" lineage that did not have anything to do with extant non-African populations? [/QB][/QUOTE]
