  1. Story telling seemed like a good way to present this topic. Agree?

  2. The Woke Olympics 🤣

  3. It was only like 15 years ago they said that neanderthals were just scavengers instead of apex predators
    130
  4. It would be an insult to Neanderthals to suggest they just gave up their lands and families without a fight, don't you think?

  6. The spears are really incredible for 300,000 years ago. If Neanderthals were that smart back then, how much smarter were they by 50,000 years ago?
    80
  7. Amazing. Neanderthal population estimates and interbreeding hybrid population is very interesting. Oase1 is especially fascinating given his 6-9% Neanderthal DNA with many introgressed variants for Neanderthal blood antigens, pigmentation, facial features and metabolism for cold climates. Studies combining ecological modeling and genetic analysis suggest that the total Neanderthal population at any given time likely ranged between 10,000 and 70,000 individuals across their entire range. A commonly cited estimate, based on work by researchers like Jean-Pierre Bocquet-Appel and Svante Pääbo, hovers around 50,000 during stable climatic periods.

  9. Now there are 2 fossils dated to 17,000 years ago from Italy that have blue eyes. This is interesting because a previous study concluded that Blue eyes originated only 8,000 years ago.
    54
  10. Much to do with funding. Certain groups only wamt their projects funded and not others.
    45
  11. In this video, we explore the hypothesis of whether the extinction of the Neanderthals was caused by a brutal wipeout or a slow decline, and look at recent evidence from France, the Middle East, and Germany.

  15. Omo 1 was discovered over 50 years ago but still is giving up NEW information and there is ongoing disagreement about the dating and the reconstruction, as well as the sex of the fossil. What do you think? Modern or Archaic?

  17. Wouldn't it be interesting to be able to trace your Neanderthal ancestry back to a specific fossil!
    31
  18. In this video, we'll discuss the theory that a giant human species once existed on earth, and We'll investigate the evidence and see if the theory holds any water. After watching this video, do you believe in the existence of a giant human species?
    31
  19. Thank you! Very interesting to hear your perspective. We need to listen to these ancient stories, there is a lot of ancient wisdom that needs to be passed on..
    30
  20. Check out this video on my other channel: "Mysterious 200,000 Year Old Skull Found in a Greek Cave" https://youtu.be/_a0v2lhTXCM Thanks for Watching and Supporting the Channel. https://www.buymeacoffee.com/compellingvideo

  21. You missed the punchline lol
    30
  22. I think that story would be against community guidelines
    27
  23. That's what I said
    26
  24. If they could kill cave beer and cave lions then an eagle would not be a problem
    26
  25. It is amazing that our closet living relatives are Chimps, and that everything else disappeared.
    26
  26. Possibly the Last Common Ancestor was Bipedal and Chimps/Gorillas evolved knucklewalking and living in trees after the split, while Human lineage continued walking on two legs. Bipedalism is older than knucklewalking.
    24
  27. I think there was more variety than we know due to limited fossils. There are very few full Skeletons and mostly just large legs bone used to estimate size
    24
  28. Speculation implies a total lack of facts, while a Theory is based at least partially on fact. So this is a Theory
    24
  29. Originally it was to attract funding for archaeology in Ethiopia
    24
  30. I think you would have had to be some serious badass dude to survive with nothing but a spear in the wilderness with saber-tooth tigers and woolly mammoths everywhere

  31. The Omo 1 Fossil is maybe the biggest mystery in human evolution - a 200,000 year old fully modern human. After consulting with many experts, it is highly likely that the supposed 200,000 Year old Modern Human Omo 1 From Ethiopia is actually only 50,000 Years Old, a tall and slender Female with a Gracile skull slightly more robust than modern females, and the face and jaw was wrongly reconstructed as Male. So rather than a gracile early modern male, it is a slightly robust modern female. 1. The attachment point for neck muscles on the back of the skull is small compared to males. 2. The Vertical part of the Mandible (Ramus) is short, which indicates a Female (females usually have less prominent chins that males as well) 3. The Occipital (back bottom of the skull) is small, also indicating a small neck. 4. The Pelvis is 95% certain to be from female, and closely matches the Omo Tribe who currently live in the region 5. The teeth are fully modern but slightly more robust but there are no 3D scans 6. The skull was found associated with fauna including Wild Cattle. The tribes in the region are well known as cattle herders so this would date back thousands of years 7. The skull and skeleton were found together in an Open Air site and it is almost unheard of to find such a complete skeleton unless it was deliberately buried. 8. The skull is much more modern than the Skhul and Qafzeh skulls of the Levant which are 80k to 120k years old (especially the jaw). These are also the oldest known burials. 9. The height estimate of 6 feet and the slender build is incredible for an ancient human female, but the Omo Tribes are known for having women that are 6 feet tall and slender. 10. The skull cannot be directly dated, so it is dated using the soils it was buried, which makes precise dating impossible. 11. Omo 2 which is more archaic and closely resembles the Herto skulls was found in a different site and cannot be used to date this skull 12. Omo 1 site was originally dated to 37,000 years, then 130,000 years, then 195,000 years then 233,000 years...the site has never been tested to see if the fossil was intrusive to the site
    23
  32. Do you think Homo juluensis is a good species and agree with placing Denisovans in this species?
    23
  33. If Yunxian is Close to LCA of Homo sapiens then what does that mean for Origins of Homo sapiens?

  37. The Neanderthal is fundamentally subversive, And this subversion tests our intelligence. Are we really prepared to face this, Slimak asks?
    22
  38. The two studies that I reference are on the screen in the video and also in the description
    22
  39. Thanks for Watching! What do you think? Is the Solo Man Homo erectus actually the mysterious Ghost Denisovans of Southeast Asia?
    21
  40. Just making sure everyone is paying attention
    21
  41. Evidence suggests lots of violent encounters in Europe between Farmers and Hunter-Gatherers. It wasn't a peaceful transition in many regions
    21
  42. Europe or Africa Where Did Human Ancestors REALLY Come From?
    20
  43. She would not have wore so much clothing for sure
    20
  44. Quite interesting that they went from the height of their empire to extinct in 3,000 years.
    20
  45. The most interesting thing about Denisovans is that we probably shouldn't be calling them Denisovans.

  46. This video is based on a scientific paper 'The Role of Geomagnetic Field Intensity in Late Quaternary Evolution of Humans and Large Mammals' https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/2018RG000629

  47. Viewers seemed to Like my Sex With Neanderthal video with over 700,000 views but not for everyone
    19
  48. EDIT: We have 23 pairs of chromosomes not 26 Do you think the comet impact, pole reversal and bottleneck are connected?
    19
  49. Not all Neanderthals were the same. Some were more "Sapienized" than others. What does this mean for their species classification?
    19
  50. What kind of boats do you think ancient mariners used? Log rafts, dugout canoes, or boats made of reeds? Back in ancient times there would have been no shortage of huge driftwood logs that would have made nice boats.

  54. If we ever found a Neanderthal Iceman it would be remarkable and fun discovery! My apologies to anyone who watched the video early on when the title did not say "What If'". The title was not intended to trick anyone, we were just excited about such a Hypothetical discovery, while the rest of the video after the Introduction was factual. Clearly, we should have made it obvious that such a discovery was hypothetical and not an actual event.

  58. Yes we neanderthalers are going to take over the world from the homosapiens

  59. Erectus on Erectus crime was the theory of the original archaeologist but new dating shows the site overlaps with arrival of modern humans, which is highly suspicious.

  65. The mtDNA of MZR belongs to an extinct basal lineage of the M9 haplogroup. Y-DNA haplogroup K-M9 is an old lineage that arose approximately 47,000-50,000 years ago, probably in South East Asia.
    15
  66. DNA proves Denisovans were in Australia/New Guinea when modern man arrived. The sea levels were actually higher 120kya than today, but during the ice age Australia and New Guinea were connected. Ancient people mixed with archaic all over the world, so that is nothing against the Australian Aboriginals but I understand the sensitivity, given the history.
    14
  67. The British Natural History Museum has played a huge role in shaping the narrative about Neanderthals. Do you agree with their classification?
    14
  68. Did Neanderthals go extinct as a biological species 100,000 years ago due to interbreeding?
    14
  69. I received the following reply from the author of this paper.. "There is a population that inhabits Europe c.20,000 years ago (known as the ‘villabruna’ genetic cluster or ‘western European hunter-gatherers or WHG’) who all seem to carry the genetic variant in OCA2 which is strongly associated with lighter-pigmented eyes, although what colour they would have appeared may have varied from blue to green or even hazel depending on what other influential variants they carried. The oldest representative of this group (17,000 years old) is from Tagliente in present-day Italy."

  72. Homo Heidelbergensis is a term that some anthropologists dislike because it just generally refers to any fossil between about 700kya and 300kya and the original fossil was only a jawbone
    14
  73. What is "Human"?
    14
  74. Here is the source. They just referred to Native Americans generally, rather than any specific group. http://www.sci-news.com/genetics/native-americans-lip-shape-gene-denisovans-09330.html
    14
  75. Did Neanderthals have blue eyes? Maybe
    14
  76. Most fossils are found in caves, so they were called 'Caveman' but I agree that they didn't always lived in caves.
    14
  77. Solo Man was no Homo erectus...
    13
  78. You could argue that the classification of every single bone that does not have DNA confirmation is just "Speculation". Most bones are classified according to place and time, while morphology is secondary. Neanderthal fossils show a wide degree of differences over time and place. The "Denisovan" population in Melanesian/Australia is actually as far removed from the Siberian Denisovans as Neanderthals are from Homo sapiens, so calling that group "Denisovan" is misleading. There were at least 3 separate "Denisovan" lineages in Asia that were isolated for a few hundred thousand years from each other.

    13
  88. 68% of landmass is in North and much of the South is South America and Australia where there were no ancient humans. Most of Africa is in the Northern Hemisphere, so that only leaves southern Africa and Java/Flores as places where pre-sapiens fossils have been found
    13
  89. The Koh Swamp skulls are interesting. Australians and Papuans do have high levels of Denisovan ancestry.
    12
  90. And the sensibility of a 6-year-old

    12
  95. Wow! Longest comment award! Good insight. Also sapiens have larger frontal Lobe, which allows for longer concentration to build stuffl
    12
  96. We tend to think of cavemen carrying wooden clubs, but the weapon of choice in the stone age was the stone hand axe. Ancient humans were especially skilled at making what is called the Archulean hand axe, and their skill in using them as a Meylay weapon is a scary thought.

  98. Agreed. There is zero evidence that H sapiens originated in Africa. There are a few fossils but no proof that is where they originated. Could just as likely been in Southern/SW Asia
    12
  99. I wasn't a big believer in the Volcano Theory but new research suggests massive volcanic eruptions across Europe and the Caucasus. And also, Arabia, North Africa and Ethiopia which would have affected northern weather more than tropical weather.

  101. You Won't Believe What Neanderthal Genes Are Doing to Your Body
    12
  102. I think the jury is still out on whether or not neanderthal had light colored eyes and if we inherited those from Neanderthals because some Research indicates the genes for blue eyes in modern humans have been around for 40,000 years but it's a not a real simple thing to try to figure out apparently because there's a few different genes that work together to control eye color along with skin color and hair color
    12
  103. Human evolution is a controversial topic for sure
    12
  104. Good question I should have included that info! "The estimated introgression levels from archaic humans in the MZR genome are ∼1.29% for Denisovan ancestries and ∼1.27% for Neanderthal ancestries, similar to the reported introgression levels in current East Asians (1.20%–2.90% on average)" https://www.cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822(22)00928-9

  107. Indeed it requires 1 million years to become truly separate species. Anthropology acknowledges that they don't use the biological species concept for humans because it is better for one's career to discover a new human species
    11
  108. I have another video on that. That was a big factor too.
    11
  109. There's one genetic study that suggest dogs were semi domesticated over 100,000 years ago and that possibly was done by Neanderthals and then Homo sapiens were able to train them as true hunting dogs. If neanderthals had semi domesticated wolves that could explain why they held off humans for a long time
    11
  110. Thanks! I will look into that. The cultivated foods of the America's is an interesting subject.
    11
  111. They didn't conclude if the "Denisovan DNA" was from Siberia or the "Denisovan DNA" that Papuans/Australians have...but they also found Australasian DNA in South American so that is an interesting twist.
    11
  112. ​ @avagrego3195  It is an interesting question. Animals with hair have white skin for sure but exactly how long it took hominins to lose their hair is an open question, and at what point did they become "human". I don't know what you mean by "early man" but by around 1.5 mya humans were likely hairless and would have need some pigmentation to protect from the sun. The genes for white skin are very ancient but skin color is very complex and even with living humans, geneticists cannot accurately determine a person's skin color. Most likely ancient humans were a shade of light to dark brown depending on their latitude. I think you are referring to this study by Penn State which states that "both dark and light pigmentation alleles arose before the origin of modern humans and that both light and dark pigmented skin has continued to evolve throughout hominid history." https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.aan8433
    11
  113. The unique thing about Petralona is the hollow frontal sinuses that are only found in Petralona and Kabwe. H. heidelbergensis and H erectus have so much variation that you cannot lump them all together, you have to look at individual fossils. 'Frontal sinuses and human evolution' is the most important paper, as also discussed by Chris Stringer in his paper. I added sources to description. https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.abp9767 I don't agree with the "failed exodus" idea. Was Jebel Irhoud a failed migration to Morocco? "Early Homo Sapiens" is a controversial classification that does not even mean that they are the ancestor of modern H. sapiens, just maybe an offshoot
    11
  114. I don't think being two feet taller means that your brain is twice as big but brain size has traditionally been a measurement of human intelligence in ancient humans. But recently obviously they have figured out that brain structure is just as important. Plus can also tell by the simple tools these creatures were using that they weren't all that intelligent
    11
  115. Probably some very specific Neanderthal genes for testosterone. Percentage is misleading because some genes make a huge difference while some make little difference. Also extreme cold weather makes you wrinkled. Thanks for the comment!
    11
  116. Don't miss this little short we made https://youtube.com/shorts/0AnRtHCdBWE?feature=share

  117. Thanks for Watching! Here is another video about Neanderthals you may like https://youtu.be/RZsRvmhmD0U
    11
  118. Well apparently if I don't then my video gets demonetized which is really a shame because they're spectacular
    11
  119. The image at 2:30 shows the 5 African populations tested, all just south of the Sahara, 4 in West Africa and 1 in Ethiopia. The percentages are similar across all groups. Later gene flow could account for Ethiopia but not likely in West Africa. These groups have about 30% the levels of Neanderthal DNA as Eurasians, so that would mean they should have 30% Eurasian DNA if it was all from recent back migrations.

  121. The ghost split off from common ancestor 625,000 years ago or thereabouts. This is very much the same scenario as Neanderthals in Europe, including the admixture date. So very exciting that there is a huge population living in West Africa equivalent to Neanderthals that was totally unknown to archaeology.
    11
  122. I would imagine they are closely related.
    11
  123. True. It probably took 10k years to evolve lighter skin/hair

  125.  @spaalqutsi  They might have domesticated wolves based on DNA study that shows over 100,000 years since wolves and dogs diverged
    10
  126. So it seems that Neanderthals had religion or spiritual beliefs, superstitions, culture, etc..
    10
  127. Saying they were "primitive" is the justification to take over their lands. Out-dated thinking.
    10
  128. Bjorn Kurten, 1976, 'The Cave Bear Story' used this phrase, and it was thrown around at the time when H. heidelbergensis was not widely used. The species Homo heidelbergensis is a highly debated classification as outlined in this article https://nutcrackerman.com/2016/11/09/a-moment-of-silence-for-the-death-of-homo-heidelbergensis/ «In reality this species should have stayed dead instead of being resurrected in the 1980s», Juan Luis Arsuaga

  129. I had a book on human evolution as a kid that my mother gave me that I still have it's almost 40 years old and that's probably why I got interested

  135. Thanks! If they put as much attention to Asia as they do to Africa then we could sort this out but the problem is that it requires rewriting the OOA hypothesis when we look too close at Asia.
    10
  136. The meat could have been taken to a different location to cook. What's really striking is that they they didn't let anything go to waste and it must have been a large group in order for them to capture and kill 12 people also it's interesting that these Neanderthals they say did not have the same bone structure as other neanderthals in the region and that they were mostly vegetarian ..so they are kind of like Hippy Neanderthals
    10

  139. This study is about 1 million years before recent OoA. I fail to comprehend the idea that there is some barrier between Africa and Eurasia that humans never crossed until 60ka. Stringer has made several statements and co-authored a couple of studies contradicting a strict OoA theory.
    10
  140. I don't know why anthropologists dismiss the idea of ancient humans building boats. We know they built shelters and a boat is very similar to a shelter. Hunting in groups requires organization just like an ocean voyage.
    10
  141. There’s a suspicion that this haplogroup may have entered recent human populations by interbreeding with a more ancient, diverged branch of archaic humans.
    10
  142. What do you think? Was this the nail in the coffin of Neanderthals?

  148. They interbred in Siberia Altai Mountains...Neanderthals migrated East so why could Denisovans not migrate west?
    9
  149. It is controversial for sure, but no one has conclusively shown the findings are false.
    9
  150. I'm actually working on something about Java Man and Denisovans

  151. Dark like south Asians
    9
  152. Aliens, of course
    9
  153. Neanderthal centric maybe
    9
  154. This latest tree places Xuchang as an early Neanderthal and Xujiayao near Xiahe/Denisova. https://www.biorxiv.org/content/biorxiv/early/2024/05/17/2024.05.16.594603/F3.large.jpg?width=800&height=600&carousel=1 I see you are citing this study: https://paleoanthropology.org/ojs/index.php/paleo/libraryFiles/downloadPublic/18?ref=johnhawks.net Recent study shows large amount of gene flow (10%) from early Homo sapiens in to Neanderthal around 230,000 BP so this may have also occurred in Asia...we are missing these large-brained early Homo sapiens fossils from this time... Great topic for a video!
    9
  155.  @unfixablegop  I agree, I think it is baffling. There is the possibility that the cannibals and the victims were not the same species.
    9
  156. Shaquile O'neil's wife didn't have any trouble giving birth so I don't think this is such a problem
    9
  157. Yes, I agree. They probably had a few elite throwers who would slow down prey with thrown spears then finish them off with stabbing spears. Though evidence from 120,000 years ago in Germany indicates they hunted the largest male Elephants rather than old and weak. In Africa even 1 million years ago there is evidence of humans hunting only the largest healthiest animals compared with other predators that would hunt younger weaker animals.
    9
  158. Yes, I think the idea that Neanderthals lived in very isolated small groups and never banded together, traded and shared technology is another out-dated narrative. They migrated all the way to China.
    9
  159. I probably know more about Anthropology than most Anthropologists
    9
  160. There's different ways to interpret the mitochondrial DNA statistics. The fact they found Neanderthal DNA in Africans is really interesting as well as the fact that two groups of Africans apparently didn't interbreed for 100,000 years which means that probably one of them didn't live in Africa
    9
  161. Very likely

  168. I have done a number of videos on Java Man and Homo floresiensis but there is much more research on Neanderthals
    9
  169. That is a good subject for a future video. Southern Africa is the only place in the southern Hemisphere where pre-sapiens fossils have been found except Java and Flores Islands...
    9
  170. I never said they were dumb, only that the did not have the spark that separated modern humans as evidenced by the vast differences in cave art and tools. Yes they were much more advanced than previously thought but they could not compete with us

  175. It would be an insult to Neanderthals to suggest they just gave up their lands and families without a fight
    8
  176. Let me know what you think of the study linked in the description. I haven't seen this covered anywhere else.
    8
  177. Well the most recent date is 417,000 years ago which corresponds to may have been even warmer than today that I talk about in the video
    8
  178. We absorbed the females and shot the males with arrows

  192. Good question! "The CT-scans reconstructed endocranial volume (ECV) of the MLDG-1704 calotte is ∼1,327 cm3, a reduced ECV in comparison with the mean of East Asian early H. sapiens (EAEHS) (1,407 ± 146 cm3) and Neanderthal (1,407 ± 172 cm3)."
    8
  193. Neanderthals were direct rivals to Cro-Magnon in the beginning
    8
  194. Yes the study also concluded many mammals went extinct or began a downward spiral 42,000 years ago in Eurasia. Also Homo sapiens in Europe such as Bacbo Kiro dissappear at this time but there was a huge Hs population in warmer South Eurasia that replaced them afterward
    8
  195. Aggression doesnt always mean violence. Testosterone in fetus and youth affects brain growth enlarging areas associated with risk taking aka aggressive behavior
    8
  196. Thanks for the feedback. Yes, I should be more clear about the term human vs modern human. The 285,000 year old date was referring to tools found in Africa that are similar to tools found in Australia dating to 50,000 years ago. That was not very clear, my fault. Here is the source https://www.nationalgeographic.com/science/article/did-early-humans-in-india-survive-a-supervolcano Thanks for the feedback! I have a couple of videos about Homo Erectus in Java that go into more detail on that subject.
    8
  197. Yes it's very suspicious because most of the Advanced neanderthal artifacts date to 60,000 to 40,000
    8
  198. Wow! This is really great information. The Neanderthals were very much stronger!
    8
  199. Study just came last week! Took 4 years to get peer reviewed I guess.
    8
  200. I said 'most'.. Some probably had Blue eyes and blonde hair too
    8
  201. Apparently there were Ostriches in Eurasia back then
    8
  202. I'm not sure what you mean by swiping it but obviously I get the information somewhere and paraphrase and add some of my own speculation and the video editing could be improved and I'm actually trying to find a assistant
    8
  203. Good question. We actually know 1000x more about Neanderthals than early Homo sapiens. There are 100s of Neanderthal fossils but only a handful of what are believed to be early Homo sapiens so very incomplete record and no DNA from early HS before 45,000 years. Skhul and Qafzeh are 100,000 year old early Homo sapiens of possibly Neanderthal/Sapiens hybrids from Middle East. Omo and Herto from Ethiopia are believed to be early HS from around 150-200,000 years ago and those are the best we have.
    8
  204. They liked to keep things in the family
    8
  205. Cool! You will probably see him in future videos.

    8
  207. Denisovan ancestry is around that time too, especially in New Guinea
    8
  208. Sounds like an interesting topic! I actually have an upcoming video that touches on that subject. The dating of the skull is sometimes the most problematic in this discussion.
    8
  209. Because of the smaller size, although maybe it was worn by a small man teenage boy

    8
  211. Interesting. That would not cause a stir at all!
    8
  212. Did Neanderthals Have Boats?
    8
  213. Rock throwing may have been a primary driver in early evolution. Better throwers survived and their descendents play baseball today.
    8
  214. Modern humans maybe, but Homo Erectus seems to be highly dependent on environment.

  216. I meant to say that Neanderthals don't have any modern Homo Sapien DNA but they do have Homo sapien sex chromosomes from more ancient interbreeding
    7
  217. They survived 500k years and then all of a sudden forgot how to survive I guess
    7
  218. Northern Neanderthals did for sure, but Middle Eastern Neanderthals may have had brown skin. Skin color variation probably pre-dates modern humans.
    7
  219. Imagine it lasting 22,000 years!
    7
  220. Wow, thank you!
    7
  221. Remarkable that it's in such a remote location

  235. There is some "mystery DNA" in our genome that may come from Erectus.
    7
  236. That is probably true. Weird to think there were modern looking humans running around 1 million years ago, who were not even intelligent enough to build a fire.
    7
  237. Good question. The Y-chromosomal most recent common ancestor (Y-MRCA), or Y-chromosomal Adam, is estimated to have lived in north-central Africa around 236,000 (between 192,000 and 307,000 years ago) years ago, according to this 2015 study. Estimates vary depending on the molecular clock formula used. This is roughly the same time as the emergence of anatomically modern humans, and the early interbreeding event with Neanderthals. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4381518/
    7
  238. Their Dental plaque showed they never ate any meat so maybe they adopted a vegetarian lifestyle out of philosophy
    7
  239. Big noses and Big eyes may not be cold-adapations but short, stout bodies and lighter skin were cold adapaptions likely
    7
  240. I'm thinking they used birch glue to manufacture waterproof clothing
    7
  241. Fetal position seems common with Neanderthals. Like returning to the womb
    7
  242. Over the last 10,000 years we are progressively getting weaker and dumber...
    7
  243. Good points. I would argue the Dali skull from China is more modern looking than Jebel Irhoud at same age. Herto and Omo look very modern but Ethiopia is on the edge of the Middle East and modern Ethiopians have lots of mixing with Eurasians so likely that also occurred long ago too. There is no reason to think humans respected modern political boundaries back then.

    7
  247. Interestingly a group of vegetarian Neanderthals in Spain was cannibalized
    7
  248. Everything is disputable...

    7
  254. Agreed!
    7
  255. I agree and I don't know why so many archaeologists are opposed to that idea especially in Island Southeast Asia where it's more like a calm sea than the ocean
    7
  256. Because they lived in warmer regions in the south such as Middle East, India and North Africa.
    7
  257. They even felt that way about other Europeans, who they also called savages and barbarians.

  261. Very true. It could have been a single Elon Musk-type Ancient Human that created the glue used to stick a spearpoint to a stick for example.
    7
  262. Aurochs were at least twice the size of modern cattle.
    7
  263. Some have bigger brains than current modern humans but early modern humans had bigger brains that shrunk that's why I said the the early modern humans that they were competing with at the time ..it's debatable whether or not all the Neanderthals had larger brains or only a few specimens that had the larger brains and there's not really enough to specifically say that the entire population had larger brains. Just because you hear something on another Channel or PBS or the BBC or something doesn't mean you should take it as factual

  268. Yes and Homo sapiens of 50,000 years ago would look more like Neanderthals than humans today in regards to physique and robusticity
    7
  269. Bushmen are the most ancient humans and probably invented the bow and arrow.

    7
  273. Well until Asian farmers arrived then all the islands were actually inhabited by people basically the same as Australian aboriginals and any small groups would have just been assimilated
    7
  274. Laos Cobra Cave 86,000 years ago is oldest skull that looks fully modern I think, though some might disagree....by DNA the oldest is Zlaty Kun, Bacho Kiro from eastern Europe and another from Russia c. 45,000 years....so there is quite a gap where we have no modern human skulls or DNA 🤨
    7
  275. Homo Erectus was much more advanced than once believed.
    6
  276. Thanks for your perspective!
    6
  277. Interesting however that China and India have as much Neanderthals DNA as Europeans but little Denisovan. Me thinks Neanderthals were in China, Denisovans in Tibet and Island Soitheast Asia

  296. The answer is out there, we just have to keep digging.
    6
  297. No, human created with a million mouse clicks.
    6
  298. They need to completely rewrite the classification system. I think there were at least 4 subspecies of humans (sapiens, neanderthal, denisovan, sunda homo erectus)....Basically these correspond to the 4 regions of Africa, Europe, Asia and Island SE Asia/Sundaland.... But what do you call them? I think the genus "homo" is over used because Homo floresiensis obviously are not "human" because they did not interbreed. Maybe we should come up with a new genus for just the lineage that we come from. Any ideas?
    6
  299. Gorillas don't work out or eat meat. Ancient humans had different genetics 100,000 years ago. Today we are weaklings.
    6
  300. Even children know how to make a raft from a log, so it would have probably occured to ancient humans too
    6
  301. They found microblade spearheads in South Africa 70,000 years. In the past they've kind of overlooked these tiny little blades but now they're starting to realize that these are actually arrowheads such as those found in France

  312. Neanderthals and Denisovans likely had as much genetic diversity as Asians and Europeans today, and different appearances. Amud 1 Neanderthal had a pretty nice looking chin. Lots of modern humans living today have tiny chins.
    6
  313. Good question. Species is just a made up idea that can be bent to whatever you want it to mean. "Population" is a term being applied more often now.
    6
  314. Those stories have lots of truth to them!
    6
  315. Yes, lots of evidence of Neanderthal cannibalism, including breaking bones to eat the marrow. Unknown if this was due to nutritional needs or just a custom. They also used human bones as tools.

    6
  319. I think that is a word people use to mean fierce
    6
  320. The source for this is in the description, it is based on one paper titled "Using Personal Genome Technology and Psychometrics to Study the Personality of the Neanderthals"
    6
  321. And they got esten themselves
    6
  322. I probably will do that. Nobody wants to talk about it because of past racist views.
    6
  323. The fact that there is very little Denisovan ancestry in East Asians is a mystery. Likely the Siberian/East Asian Denisovans went extinct before modern humans arrived there, which has interesting parallels to the Neanderthal extinction. There is some evidence that a weakened magnetic field around 41,500 years ago severely weakened populations in Europe and north Asia due to 10x increased radiation levels and the severe climates following the volcanic eruptions wiped out most populations though likely some isolated groups survived. Most genetic evidence suggests that nearly all Neanderthal ancestry in modern humans was acquired through admixing in the Iranian Plateau region around 70,000 years ago and thus there was very little admixture outside of that region. So modern humans had populations in warmer regions of southern Eurasia in the Middle East and India that survived and then quickly replaced the Neanderthals and Denisovans before their numbers could rebound.
    6
  324. Thanks for your comment that's a subject of done some research on. Most diseases come from farm animals or monkeys or bats. HS spent 30,000 years in southern Arabia before they went into Europe and had already interbred with Neanderthals many times so it wasn't as if they came from Africa straight to Europe in a week carrying some tropical disease so I think unlikely. It seems like the Neanderthal population was reduced to almost nothing because of the Pole reversal 42,000 years ago and then the volcanic eruption 40,000 years ago which also wiped out all the modern humans in Europe at that time that were already in Arabia that the re colonized Europe
    6
  325. Anthony Fauci no but the study is in the description and that is actually from several studies because the Bushman and pygmy have been eliminated because they split off over 100,000 years ago which is to long ago to have been the source for non Africans
    6
  326. We have more evidence of Denisovans in Asia than archaic/early Homo sapiens in Africa. We label every large brained fossil in Africa after 300,000 years as Homo sapiens even though there is wide variation. For example Jebel Irhoud. What proves it is Homo sapiens??? Part of the problem is that nobody wants to look too close because it screws up the OOA hypothesis. Thus Asia fossils are labeled "late Homo erectus" which is a joke..
    6
  327. I use an app called 'Wonder' for original art
    6
  328. Likely nearly all humans in Eurasia died out and those that survived were in Africa and Island Southeast Asia/Sundland. Java Man Homo erectus may have been the humans that repopulated Eurasia and then split into Neanderthals/Denisovans/Sapiens around 700,000 years ago...Bodo Man from Ethiopia dated to 600kya may be a descendent of Java Man but this is speculation...
    6
  329. There's actually evidence that they were using a certain type of stone that works great to start fires for a flint
    6
  330. Plus adding African Heidelbergensis
    6
  331. But also weakened field lets in up to 10x more radiation and the atmosphere is thnner in the North due to spin of Earth and the Eurasian landmass effects the wind and climate more compared to equatorial regions with less land mass so the effect on animals is more.
    6
  332. It's very primitive compared to Omo skulls. I don't like to use Homo heidelbergensis. It is a very Eurocentric species
    6
  333. 150kya was the major back to Africa migration. There is evidence of this within the genetics of the Yoruba and Bushmen who did not mix from about 150kya to 50kya. The Bushmen were the first into Africa then the Yoruba around 50kya, which is when the Yoruba interbred with an unknown ghost species in West Africa. Using present DNA distributions to infer where ancient tribes lived 150,000 years ago, especially on such a big continent as Africa is dubious.

  334.  @dreamok732  Published by the British Natural History Museum but not peer reviewed. Also not all WHG had dark skin. For example Goyet Q116-1
    6
  335. Hunter gathers tend to trade women for women, not women for material goods, according to Slimak, so this is evidence of total war because that would be the only reason we find Sapiens with Neanderthal DNA, but no Neanderthals with recent Sapiens DNA.
    6
  336. You should always check the sources on anything even if the person is credentialed
    6
  337. It's spectacular :)
    6
  338. I've done videos on that before, just didn't make it into this video. Recent evidence is that eruption was 39,000 years ago and Neanderthals were probably 99% extinct by that time
    6
  339. More likely they were just "regional variations" rather than even sub-species.
    6
  340.  @Zoltan1412  The Chinese include Siberian Denisovan in what the call Dragon Man lineage of Homo longi. The Solo Man skulls from Java may be Southern Denisovans, so probably stick with convention and use that.

  342. There's really only been a few Neanderthal genomes sequenced so we really can't say for sure that none of them had light colored eyes and there's some evidence that the gene for blue eyes modern humans may go back as far as 40,000 years as well and it's kind of a complicated interaction between different genes that control eye color skin color hair color for example there's some Western Hunter Gstherers that are 10,000 years old that had blue eyes and that study from 2008 that said that all blue eyes in modern humans descended from one common ancestor who lived six to 10,000 years ago has been found not to be accurate .. stay tuned. Thanks for your comment!
    6
  343. I just debunked the debunking
    5
  344. 125,000 years ago, the climate was warmer than today and see levels 30 feet higher. This coincides with modern man leaving Africa. Human evolution is directly tied to climate changes.
    5
  345. I appreciate that.
    5
  346. As stated in the video these early Europeans 45,000 years ago are not the ancestors of modern Europeans, they are more closely related to East Asians and Native Americans. The mutation for light skin and fair hair in Europeans is 29,000 years old, while the mutation for blue eyes is 42,000 years old although there is the possibly that these traits existed in other populations through different genes that have gone extinct.
    5
  347. I would argue that living as a hunter-gatherer requires as much intelligence as living in the modern world, or even more. Papuans independently invented agriculture and were master boat builders. I think current intelligence likely goes back 500,000 years, but archaeological evidence is lacking. Modern humans are not necessarily more intelligent, just more efficient and have a pathological need for controlling the environment around us.

  350. That's a good topic for a video 👏
    5
  351. I asked the authors of the paper that question and they said maybe 300,000 years ago
    5
  352. There's several papers Linked In the description and I also show them on the screen Also the classic scientific definition of species is any groups that can interbreed so therefore human lineage going back to around 800,000 years ago would be considered Homo sapien When you read scientific papers you see there is a lot of speculation beyond the science so you have to take everything with a grain of salt and read between the lines and there's always an anthropologist that are going to disagree with each other about conclusions
    5
  353. Yes, that is correct. The archaeological record is unreliable because the further you go back, the less stuff is preserved. This doesn't mean people were not making stuff, especially out of wood which is much easier to work than stone or bone.
    5
  354. The original archaeologist thought the Kow Swamp skull showed Erectus traits, my bet is Denisovan
    5
  355. What makes us 'Human" compared to our archaic ancestors?
    5
  356. Easy when you are eating megafauna meat, bone marrow and organ meat and rely on strength for survival. The myth of the tall, lean endurance hunter only applies to modern hunter-gatherers who used bow and arrows, and not brute force hunting.

    5
  363. It's a long way from Ethiopia to Morocco. Aterians as a subspecies is interesting. H. sapiens subspecies are controversial because if we start being too selective based on cranial morphology then it can lead to classifying recent people into different subspecies.
    5
  364. Well we're saying that they're just like us and we're violent and cruel right?
    5
  365. Out of AfroEurasia
    5
  366. Apparently by 200,000 years ago, according to Omo 1 fossil, as reconstructed. Skhul and Qafzeh had nice chins around 120,000 years ago. The difference between Neanderthal and Homo sapiens chins is really just the angle, with Homo sapiens have a projecting chin and Neanderthal chins being more angled.
    5
  367. I don't know if he refers to this. There is a link to the paper in the description.
    5
  368. They are still here.
    5
  369. Denisovans lived at 13,000 feet in the Himalayas when the climate was colder than today..
    5
  370. ​ @AnthropoTube  This is no consensus among geneticists and anthropologists, as your second comment illustrates. The OoA group was in Arabia by 130,000 years ago, if not 230,0000 yeas ago, according to several recent studies. The earliest Papuan/Australians should be very closely related to Eurasians dated to 40ka but they are very distant, so this shows there was already great diversity in Eurasia before people got to Australia.
    5
  371. There is evidence that H. habilis or early H. erectus crossed from Africa to Spain 1.4mya, so it is very possible.
    5
  372. Most diseases from from domesticated animals in modern times, and the timeline of migration from Tropics to Europe would mean that it would hard to carry diseases that far before the carrier died. More likely, it was like an invasive species taking over habitat over several thousand years
    5
  373. It is possible, but her height would suggest she is not related to the population.
    5
  374. We still don't understand the complexity of genes related to pigmentation. There are many genes that control skin, hair and eye color. Any humans that lived in colder regions would evolved lighter skin tones fairly rapidly just as modern humans did. There are several Neanderthal gene variants for lighter skin found in modern humans, but geneticists are not sure exactly what role they play. All they can say is that such and such gene is most common in Europeans with blue eyes, red hair, or light skin but there are many different gene combinations that account for pigmentation. For example, Melanesians have a totally different gene for blonde hair than Europeans, so Neanderthals could have had blue eye and blue hair but use different genes that modern Europeans.

  378. Cobra Cave in Laos is maybe the best evidence of modern humans in Asia earlier than 60,000 years ago. Evidence suggests there was an early Sapiens population in Asia that was replaced around 50,000 years ago.
    5
  379. Related to Solo Man then? Seems as though female skulls are harder to classify due to gracility and rarity. We don't know enough about sexual dimorphism at that time

  386. So you're saying that humans chased them in there and then they died from smoke inhalation? Interesting Theory. DNA might be able to prove if all the bones are the exact age but I think that it looks more like a burial
    5
  387. Apparently there was something living in the forests of West Africa

  390. Welcome to the Channel!
    5
  391. Great movie.
    5
  392. There is evidence that Neanderthals and Hs split 1 million years ago, and multiple interbreeding events indicate they lived in close proximity, likely in the Near East. Homo sapiens likely split into different groups 250,000 years ago which is why Africans have much less Neanderthal DNA (0.5% compared to 2%)
    5
  393. But you cannot deny thr local customs 😉
    5
  394.  @bigalsnow8199  We were also much stronger back then too but Neanderthals had more sexual dimorphism so women were not proportionately as strong as men. Today men are very feminized.
    5
  395. It is an interesting question I think, because Melanesians and Europeans are totally unrelated. So could these traits have been present in other ancient populations?
    5
  396. What about Melanesians? Light skin no, but blonde hair/blue eyes is possible in archaic populations outside Europe since Denisovans originated in North then migrated to SE Asia.

  399. Virtual Last Common Ancestor
    5
  400. The researchers found that while human bones were the most represented, they accounted for less than 13% of the hunters' caloric requirements; most of which came from rhinos, deer and horses. But unlike humans, those animals come at a very high energy cost.
    5
  401. Did you watch the interview with Lee burger at the end of the video and what he says? Basically he says that archaeologists are really afraid of the implications of his findings. The word petrify is just a play on the word terrifying since it also applies to fossils being petrified so try to just lighten up
    5
  402. I did a video on Ghost Ancestors . I don't believe any DNA has been recovered from Iwo Eleru. Stringer report speculates it shows hybrid traits and may be evidence of archaic introgression in some W Africa groups.
    5
  403. He was much older H erectus but unknown if later humans in China evolved from him or migrated
    5
  404. Very true, there are not many studies about Stone Age women's roles, it always is about hunting. There are more female anthropologists now so that should change. Also since I am male, I don't really think about the female role too much to be honest. I actually started making a video about female Neanderthals but it just wasn't very interesting. I think History With Kayleigh probably has more of a female view.
    5
  405. I had to look that up. They actually say that Greenland is 14 times larger than Africa. But it is true, Africa is much bigger than we usually think. https://blogs.scientificamerican.com/observations/africa-is-way-bigger-than-you-think/
    5
  406. Who created the Châtelperronian industry is an interesting discussion as well.
    5
  407. They were very violent
    5
  408.  @TheTamriel  Genetic split was around 400kya but when we became Sapiens is subjective interpretation of fossils
    5
  409. By exchange they just mean that one one woman goes to live in another tribe and another woman goes to live in another tribe so they can diversify their genes and it's not necessarily patriarchy because you could have a female in charge and you can still have that same system and it's more likely because women are much better at getting along that men are so it would be weird for the men to change tribes
    5
  410. Actually think people were cremating their dead because it would be way easier to just throw them in the fire then to dig a ditch and you'd have to dig a pretty deep hole to keep out predators
    5
  411. Primates no, but they did mix with Asian branches such as Denisovans
    5
  412. Yes brain size to body size ratio is important rather than just having a massive brain
    5
  413. Very interesting!
    5
  414. They had huge feet compared to body size!
    5
  415. I did a video an that. Not all Africans, just West Africa. Basically akin to an African rainforest Neanderthal population similar to Java Man
    5
  416. Thanks for the comment! I've been to Wallacea and the seas on the north side of Java/Bali/Flores are very calm and warm. You can see Lombok from Bali so I don't agree with this idea that it would be difficult to canoe around those islands. People were probably making trips to Papua long before a larger migration due to colder climate around 65kya. The idea the Australians/Papuans couldn't build seaworthy boats is also false as evidenced by the Torres Straits Islanders advanced boats
    5
  417. 🤫
    5
  418. 120,000 years ago was the peak, with the warmer range from 130,000 to 80,000 years ago. Very rapid warming
    5
  419. It is an old way of measuring brain capacity. I find early anthropology interesting.
    5
  420. Good stuff!
    5
  421. For defense against predators
    5
  422.  @beowulf1312  It is likely I think because even some monkey species have blue eyes. We think of blue eyes as a modern European trait but it could have been an ancient trait.
    5
  423. Thanks for the comment! Speculation implies a total lack of facts, while a Theory is based at least partially on fact. Neanderthals may have not used Needles because they used Birch Tar to glue animal skins together to make waterproof clothing. Same can be argued for other technology; it wasn't a lack of intelligence but more likely they just preferred other technologies. The fact Neanderthals were still around by the time H.s. had made it to Australia shows they were very much our equals. It was likely a combination of inter-breeding and volcanic activity/ice ages that depopulated Europe and then Hybrids moved from the Middle East into Europe and any Neanderthals that survived in Iberia would have been assimilated. Europe has been depopulated several times even after H.s. took over, so it is not a lack of intelligence but glaciations why they went extinct. Short stocky bodies is an adaptation to the cold, although large eyes and noses can also be adaptations for heat as well. We have not found modern H. sapiens DNA (ie less than 100,000 years old) in any Neanderthal fossil while we find that Neanderthals had DNA from more ancient 100,000+ years. This is a point that Slimak makes. https://www.livescience.com/archaeology/simply-did-not-work-mating-between-neanderthals-and-modern-humans-may-have-been-a-product-of-failed-alliances-says-archaeologist-ludovic-slimak
    5
  424. Yeah I've got a video I'm working on about that
    5
  425. Yes
    5
  426. I just like those lines 😁
    5
  427. I think a single genetic mutations arise in a small population then spread such as larger/improved brains
    5
  428. Thanks for the comment! Yes, Jebel Irhoud is very interesting. This study suggests its morphology is more similar to Neanderthals than Sapiens, because of elongated braincase and lack of a chin.
    5
  429. How do we know they were unsuccessful? Maybe they persisted someplace just haven't been found yet
    5
  430. Most cave finds were some loner or outcast or someone who got lost or eaten

  433. Either 7ft tall or 6 ft and 250 pounds of muscle based on size of leg bones
    5
  434. The point is to discuss the available evidence and come to your own conclusions. They might have been slightly more hairy than some European men today and obviously they were clothes or fur. I think that's not debatable. There's no evidence they had needles for sewing but they definitely had glue that they could have used to manufacture waterproof clothing

  435.  @frankgodineziii1351  Lots of hippo

  440. Plus most archeology is done in certain countries like South Africa and other countries have little funding
    5
  441. There were actually two splits. From Neandersovans 800kya and Neanderthals 400kya. The Neandersovans split into the Denisovans and another lineage of "Proto-Neanderthals" that were found in Spain. This is the best study on the subject I think. https://hereditasjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s41065-020-00163-9
    5
  442. I wasn't aware there was any DNA extracted from Omo or Herto. AOO may be the oldest but the geographic origin is not necessarily the same found today. The demographic make up of Eurasia was completely different only 10k years ago so the same is likely true for Africa.

  445. That was exactly my conclusion too
    5
  446. The valley was named after Joachim Neander, a 17th-century German pastor and hymnwriter. Neander is the Graeco-Roman translation of his family name Neumann; both names mean "new man". https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neandertal_(valley)
    5
  447. Sorry, had to pay the bills!
    5
  448. The Hofmyer Skull of South Africa is so said to be Cromagnid. That is a good term by the way.
    5
  449. For some reason we have almost zero archaeological evidence of Homo sapiens before 50,000 years ago whereas Neanderthal evidence is extensive but what we know from the cro-magnons they were definitely a sturdy bunch too

  469. It is interesting that the researchers in this study suggest a link to the Americas. It's like they have some inside information that may be coming out soon.
    4
  470. Well if you want to get really technical you can call The Offspring of a Irish and English as a hybrid or crossbreed but yeah we could interbreed with any Homo erectus after 800,000 years ago at least and any offshoots of that lineage
    4
  471. True, a large structure would be better than small family huts. Bears still drag humans out of tents and eat them, so I imagine in the ancient past that was a bigger problem. I wonder in this communal situation if the strongest male got all the women or what was happening in that regard...
    4
  472. But there's evidence of humans in Australia are 60 plus thousand years ago

  473. The terms far-left and ultra-left are used for positions that are more radical, more strongly rejecting capitalism and mainstream representative democracy, instead advocating for a socialist society based on economic democracy and direct democracy, representing economic, political and social democracy.

    4
  480.  @vvayoutvvest  There is a Question mark on the thumbnail and title so everyone can come to their own conclusions but the study does conclude that the skull has close morphology to Ngandong skulls, which many believe are 'Denisovan' for lack of a better term.
    4
  481.  @lyrigageforge3259  Yes 39kya but they were probably nearly gone by then anyway and they survived way worse catastrophes until homo sapiens sapiens came along
    4
  482. Bow and arrows were a game changer for sure. They could also be used by just about anyone, not just the strong members of the group.
    4
  483. Chinese don't want to to use Russian name
    4
  484. Hippos were living in England 120,000 years ago during a 5000 year inter glacial so African animals can move quickly into Europe
    4
  485. They didn't all look the same. Some were probably ugly and some good looking. Some had 20% Homo sapiens DNA, some Denisovan DNA. Some lived in the warm Levant and some in Siberia. Some were short and some had were taller. Some may have been harrier and some not, just like modern people.
    4
  486. I actually did a video about his Theory. I think it's highly probable that early humans like Homo erectus were extremely violent and territorial like chimpanzees

  490. Yeah even a 6-year-old understands the idea of using a log for a raft
    4
  491. Now we are starting to call them "populations" rather than species such as with Denisovans, meanwhile we have Homo floresiensis and Homo naledi which did not lead to Homo sapiens and yet are given the Homo genus to confuse things even more
    4
  492. There are some parallels between Boxgrove Man and Piltdown Man 😊
    4
  493. Yeah that was a kind of funny play on words. Would you rather be fully petrified or partially petrified?
    4
  494. This was no ordinary eruption. It was Top 10. Toba was 20x more than this one but volcanic activity in North has more impact on climate than Toba in the equator
    4
  495. There was also summer time in Italy and they may have had better ability to withstand cold than people today
    4
  496. I agree, but I also think that many people don't want to question Out of Africa because they get accused of "bias". There is more and more evidence of very early Sapiens in the Middle East region, for example. It looks like the Middle East, just like now, was a cross roads between continents.
    4
  497. Those are representations of early modern humans
    4
  498. Many thanks!
    4
  499. That chart was an average. I think that identifying whether a very ancient skull is male or female is very subjective, based on size. But obviously just look at the difference between The Rock and Chris Rock and you can see that modern skulls have a big range.

  502. and some professional wrestlers
    4
  503. Yes I asked every single Anthropologist in the world and they all agreed with each other
    4
  504. Since they interbred then it means Aboriginals actually have ancestry that goes back maybe 300,000 years😳
    4
  505. Yes and many more examples such as Asian farmers displacing Aboriginals in Island SE Asia and West Africans displacing Bushman/ Pygmy in southern Africa in ancient times
    4
  506. Why was there a bottleneck after 100ky? There were always bottlenecks in Eurasia due to Ice Age cycles. The point is they didn't recover the last time due to Homo sapiens assimilation. Otherwise they would have recovered just as they had many times before.
    4
  507. Fire smoke
    4
  508. John Hawkes has some interesting articles on his website regarding A00 and Omo 1 and whether or not they're actually Homo Sapien and/or anatomically modern
    4
  509. Probably had to do with migrating into colder regions of Eurasia at that time
    4
  510. "Ancient DNA – from microbes and food debris – preserved in the dental tartar, or calculus, showed that Neanderthals from El Sidrón showed no evidence of meat eating – instead they appear to have survived on a mixture of forest moss, pine nuts and a mushroom known as split gill. The difference was further backed up by DNA-based analysis of the diversity and make-up of microbial communities that had lived in the Neanderthals’ mouths." https://www.theguardian.com/science/2017/mar/08/neanderthal-dental-tartar-reveals-plant-based-diet-and-drugs

  511. Thanks for the feedback!
    4
  512. Thanks for the questions. 1. Humans are uniquely dangerous species. 2. Climate varied. Ice ages come and go several times every 100k years. 3. I wonder if they were hiding out there. 4. Lots of caves. Even H. Erectus built shelters though.
    4
  513. The main study is from May 2022 https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-022-01372-0

  514. Yes, that subject deserves a future video

  519. "Dark skin' is also misunderstood. Dark means like a south Asian/Indian skin tone. Light skin not the same as White. Light skin means like Bushman/Pygmy. White and Black are two ends of a spectrum but most humans are brown

  523. Madagascar is interesting. It seems that people did not settle there until the Indonesia/Polynesian people arrived around 1200 years ago. But there is one site that shows that humans may have been there earlier.
    4
  524. I think we assume that there's less evidence the farther we go back in time because there was less stuff but more likely just less was preserved
    4
  525. Very limited compared to sapiens. That was a major difference, getting information and technology.
    4
  526. Working on a follow up video..stay tuned!
    4
  527. Also Homo sapiens men where better looking and had nicer stuff...
    4
  528. I don't think so. They took casts, but the footprints got washed away. They could tell the gate and size of the people, which they suggested had the build of Neanderthals - short and stocky.
    4
  529. The problem is defining what exactly is a modern homo sapien. ...most people would say Homo Sapiens Idaltu which is from Ethiopia. I think there's plenty of evidence that 'archaic' Homo sapiens were in the Middle East and Greece and Italy 200k years ago so they're probably pretty widespread throughout Africa the Middle East and even southern Europe depending on the climate. I don't think they they were exclusively confined to Africa but what exactly sparked modern humans to take over the world is the big question and where that spark happened
    4
  530. I don't know if genetics of modern humans is accurate because people have moved around a lot the last hundred thousand years ago so just because a group happens to live in South Africa right now doesn't mean that's where they lived 100,000 years ago. India is a huge Pandora's Box because there's just no fossils there but it's the perfect place for human to have lived
    4
  531. The original report is shown on the screen at the beginning of the video and there's a link in the description. Should we also call us whites Aboriginal Europeans?
    4
  532. I think if they could build a weather proof shelter they could build a raft for sure...
    4
  533. Yes, Heidelbergensis, especially those in Europe vs Africa are very different and often considered different species.
    4
  534. Much appreciated!
    4
  535. Yeah technically we are the same species but anthropologists like to overclassify
    4
  536. This information is not intended to justify English colonization of Australia by suggesting that Aborigines were not the first humans here. Denisovans and Modern Humans likely peacefully intermarried and shared the land, and managed their resources so they could maintain hunter gatherer lifestyle rather than engaging in genocide.
    4
  537. Thank you very much!
    4
  538. I think the early Homo sapiens were hunting the same large megafauna. Hunters tend to be very specialized, so even though small populations, they were competing for same resources which during the colder times would have been limited to larger megafauna in open steppe, rather than hunting smaller game in forested habitats. Sapiens in France had atlatls and/or bow and arrow by 57,000 years ago, so likely those that came later also had this technology... And if you have a bow and arrow wouldn't you use it to chase off any Neanderthals to expand your territory? I doubt Neanderthals would have given up their territory without a fight which is why it took so much longer for us to defeat them. I don't think diseases were a big factor since it would take many generations for sapiens to move from warmer regions to Europe and diseases are mostly associated with farm animals or rats. But malnutrition could have led to low birth rates etc..

  551. Huge driftwood logs would have been all over the beaches in ancient times and simple to carve compared to a green tree. Driftwood would be harder than bamboo but much more durable and practical. I don't know if a bamboo raft is practical on the ocean. Driftwood logs were used by the Polynesians in the past as well because nature has already done much of the work for you.

  554. Probably in Iran which is technically in Asia

  555. Even mainstream archaeologists like John Hawks and Chris Stringer are starting to question Out of Africa though they don't come right out and say it. Stringer is actually co-author on the paper about Homo Longi and John Hawks openly questioned whether H sapiens and H naledi could have overlapped in South Africa, basically implying that H sapiens did not evolve in that region
    4
  556. I know they say that more Neanderthal DNA makes you anti-social and neurotic lol
    4
  557. It seems that ancient hominins stuck with the borders of modern countries because there are so many from Ethiopia and Kenya and none from Sudan or more difficult countries. Maybe that is due to politics.
    4
  558. Yes, I should have put a map. It is basically the boundary between Indonesia and Australia/New Guinea.

  579. The whole point of the video was to question the mainstream narrative that primitive humans were not capable of boat building and seafaring, not to recite the old out-dated narratives. We don't know 5% of what ancient humans did or could do. We used to think Neanderthals were scavengers and now we know they were hunting with throwing spears etc etc. Even today people in Indonesia build very simple boats out of logs, even children go to sea..so why not ancient humans who had 75% of our brain size?

  585. Thanks watching! What do you think is a good example of what they looked like? I think it is difficult to find a good example of what they looked like because there was lots of variation based on location and time period. Denisovans in the south likely looked totally different than Siberian Denisovans. For example if the Harbin skull is Denisovan, it would be very robust while if the Solo skulls from Java are "southern Denisovan" they would be much more gracile. Neanderthals from 300,000 years ago would look very different from Neanderthals 40,000 years ago. Some Neanderthals were very heavily admixed with Homo sapiens especially in the Middle East, while some had very little HS admixture. Their skin color would probably match the latitude they lived because they were likely adapted for several hundred thousand years to their latitude and environment. As for personal adornment, I think it is more likely that they adorned themselves with body paint at least and more likely tattoos, feathers, furs, and jewelry. I don't think they looked like homeless people, all disheveled and not caring about their appearances. The men would want to look fierce and the women would want to be pretty, just like today. As for their physique, I think they would more likely be very muscular than thin and wiry, except for more recent Homo sapiens in East Africa. In colder climates they would have needed to be very muscular because they were not chasing game for miles across a hot African savannah. They were ambush hunters. Just look at a Male chimp or a gorilla to see what a Male hominid who has not been totally emasculated should look like.

    4
  593. Monday!

  594. Yeah it seems that throwing evolve really early as it means probably of both hunting and protection cuz you can imagine the throwing a rock 100 miles an hour at some picture is enough to knock it down
    4
  595. It's not a good evolutionary strategy
    4
  596. Thank you! Cheers!
    4
  597. There is a link to the scientific paper in the description. Scientific papers use "probability" when dating, for example there is a 95% probability that the date is 75,000 years ago.
    4
  598. Thanks for the comment. It's not out of context. I explain what he means by that comment. I think it is an interesting perspective. Geneticists often disagree because genetics is all based on statistical models subject to interpretation. It is not misinformation to share different views than what Chris Stringer supports...by the way why is he now backing the Chinese Yunxian Man as an ancestor of Homo sapiens? What is up with Omo 1 skull? Why has it not had 3D modeling or any analysis since 1980s? I am happy you are making videos too.

  605. I think that's an amazing discovery that I never heard of before but it makes sense that they would use animal fat and they also mentioned manganese oxide which has been found in other caves and is thought to have been used as a fire starter

  608. That study was from 1987 and is totally debunked
    3
  609. @ Homo sapiens are descendants of Homo erectus too...
    3
  610. @ H. antecessor is basically an offshoot of H. erectus but a controversial species because of limited fossils from only 1 location. Maybe it was isolated to Iberia, as that has been a Refugee for human many time.
    3
  611. Yes, I think that putting it in the Homo genus is not accurate, along with Homo floresiensis

  619. https://www.edge.org/conversation/christopher_stringer-rethinking-out-of-africa Also interesting the study Stringer references here only interbreeding with 25 Neanderthal women would be enough to account for Neanderthal DNA levels today.
    3
  620. That's from original study
    3
  621. I used to be an OOA believer but the more I study the more I believe there is no real boundary between Africa and Eurasia so that you can separate the two. In fact, a 'Greater Africa' that includes Arabia and the Levant maybe more appropriate

  628. True, probably should have used a different term. The browridge may have been thinner in Neandersovans than in Neanderthals for example, which would have been a case of "reverse evolution"

  646. Have you ever seen a hairless chimpanzee? While not broad chested he would have been 2x as stong as a human and comparable to a chimp with strong upper body for climbing.
    3
  647. Yeah that's a really amazing study and the date usually quoted as 54,000 years ago but they're giving a range between 51 to 57,000 years
    3
  648. Homo erectus 1.4 million years ago first
    3
  649. I think combined with the fact that humans evolved to be able to throw 100mph that throwing Spears or sticks would be very natural

  657. There are many skulls that are hard to determine if they are archaic sapiens or neanderthals with less prominent brows. Neanderthal children have less prominent brows. Also, the Neanderthal skull is very elongated, so this is a defining feature. Modern human skulls are easy to tell apart from neanderthals, even children due to flat face and rounded skull

  664. Petralona shares morphology with Bodo and Kabwe meaning they may be related, therefore very Early Homo sapiens were already beyond Africa by 300kya. Ethiopians and North Africans are a blend of African and Arabian, so in the ancient past they were also not strictly African. Ethiopia is much closer geography to Greece than to southern Africa. Problem with skull morphology is that it is very subjective. Not everyone agrees on definitions. The point is that H sapiens were never limited to a single to a single continent . That is over simplification.

  669. Hi Jason, Thanks for the suggestion. I know of one site that was suggested as a Neanderthal game drive but that has recently been questioned. Maybe it wasn't that they were not highly coordinated, but they were smart enough not to drive game to extinction. Maybe early HS drove large game to extinction to drive Neanderthals extinct as the US Army did to the Bison and Plains Indians. There is indirect evidence that Neanderthals drove other predators extinct including the European Jaguar and Sabre Tooth Tiger.

  692. Dark can mean as light as your average Italian beach goer according to Fitspatrick scale so technically true
    3
  693. That is exactly what I did for this video. Studied many reports and talked to many anthropologists. Many don't like to appear like they are being sensational, but the fact is the humans today are very weak and even a small monkey could take down the average man.
    3
  694. I think agriculture was not something preferable to hunter gathering.

  697. "Neandertals did have some variation in genes related to hair, skin, and eye pigmentation. Some of that variation has been inherited by today's populations, and different variants are more or less common in different populations. More of the introgressed variants are associated with lighter pigmentation than darker." https://johnhawks.net/weblog/what-color-were-neandertals/#:~:text=Neandertals%20did%20have%20some%20variation,with%20lighter%20pigmentation%20than%20darker.

  699.  @petelcek  "Neanderthal" is also not specific as they lived some 300,000 years and had different cultures/ethnic groups in Northern Europe, Southern Europe, Middle East etc..same can be said for Homo erectus. The term "European Anatomically Modern Humans" is also debatable. Cro Magnon is an umbrella term for Homo sapiens in Europe prior to major ice age 25,000 years ago that depopulated most of the region.

  704. I think that story would get my video blocked
    3
  705. Yes, I think that the magnetic pole reversal 42,000 years ago caused the extinction of northern Neanderthals/Denisovans with light skin that didn't protect them from UV Radiation.
    3
  706. Where did you read that? Why would a hominin who lives in a cold, dark climate have dark pigmentation?
    3
  707. So, modern humans only took 30,000 years to evolve light skin but Neanderthals lived in Europe 300,000 years and never evolved light skin? Otzi had dark brown skin, not black skin, comparable to Middle-Easterners and North Africans today. The same was true for Cheddar Man and other WHG. https://www.newscientist.com/article/2161867-ancient-dark-skinned-briton-cheddar-man-find-may-not-be-true/ "MC1R is a receptor gene that controls the production of melanin, the protein responsible for pigmentation of the hair and skin. Neanderthals had a mutation in this receptor gene which changed an amino acid, making the resulting protein less efficient and likely creating a phenotype of red hair and pale skin." https://humanorigins.si.edu/evidence/genetics/ancient-dna-and-neanderthals When you say "African skin" tone, that is an extremely biased statement because Africans have a wide range of skin tones, from brown to black. You should read this study to better understand skin tone, which is related to Latitude, and not politics. https://www.newscientist.com/article/2150253-gene-study-shows-human-skin-tone-has-varied-for-900000-years/

  717. Definitively? With writing if you want to be definitive. What would be considered complex? I would think if you can speak a sentence that is pretty complex and have a thyroid bone and a brain larger than 1000cc that is pretty definitive. So maybe 800k years ago by that definition
    3
  718.  @stevewhocares9970  Imagine all the giant ancient driftwood trees that would have been laying around on the beach back then. Hard to imagine but people also made houses out of whalebones and mammoth bones and probably made boats out of these too.

  719. There are skeletons that have signs of disease but hard to tell if that was because of stress from climate or competition. Very hard to tell cause of death unless fractured skull

  721. Bow and Arrow was likely the big advantage. This information is based on scientific articles about Neanderthal anatomy and genetics though there is always some scinetific speculation involved because so few skeletons are available.

  728. Fascinating
    3
  729. The Theory is that Neanderthal DNA in Africans was recent introgression from Eurasian back migration, but that is dubious because you would not think that the Neanderthal DNA would be found in all African populations if that was the case.
    3
  730. Sone DNA evidence suggests wolves separated from dogs over 100k years ago, so this would mean Neanderthals may have had partially domesticated wolf dogs. There is also evidence of wolf footprints with Neanderthal footprints and skulls found in Neanderthal caves, which is circumstantial but intriguing. Maybe humans domesticated these wolf-dogs and used them against Neanderthals
    3
  731. Homo naledi is not humam. Lee Berger even says that.
    3
  732. I think they had rafts. They were building shelters up to 40 feet long, so they had the ability to build things. A raft is basically an inverted shelter. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/662794.stm

  733. Sapiens
    3
  734. It seems that by 40,000 years Sapiens had driven Neanderthal nearly extinct, with only a few holdouts in remote corners of Europe such as northern Germany, southern Spain and possibly around the Black Sea...then the Volcano 39,000 years ago, followed by a cold spell wiped out any Neanderthals and most of the Sapiens in Europe. Then 35,000 years ago there are small populations showing up in Europe from the East including at Goyet Cave Netherlands which again are more closely related to East Asians than modern Europeans. Then around 20,000 years ago, after a major ice age Europe is repopulated by groups from central Eurasia with lighter pigmentation, except the Western Hunter Gatherers who had darker skin and blue eyes most likely....this group may have come from north Africa via the Italian peninsula.

  735. Thick bones is a sign of high testosterone and ancient humans had very thick bones, especially the skull
    3
  736.  @jhtsurvival  Their spears indicate they could have been thrown. It would make sense that the initial attack on prey would be with a thrown spear and then they finish it off with thrusting spears. So they likely had hunting groups with the best throwers using projectile spears. They also used throwing sticks that have been shown to be able to break the legs of deer or other such prey.

  743. Toba is on Java eruption 74kya and yes PNG were connected during ice ages. They probably sailed from Timor to Australia

  749. They survive millions of years and then just mysteriously go extinct when humans arrive with bow and arrows?
    3
  750. Good points!. They probably did spend more time in caves and hunt at night but still got lots of radiation at times. Maybe they migrated south and were absorbed into Homo sapiens groups as well. Probably all the Neanderthals were light skinned.
    3
  751. It didn't effect everyone equally. Our Ancestors lived in warmer southern climates and had more melanin. Neanderthals and Denisovans lived in the North which got more UV radiation
    3
  752. One mutation in TKTL1 so that the Neanderthal version of the protein has a lysine where the modern human version has an arginine, which supposedly causes denser neurons in modern human brains. Interesting how this mutation would have happened, maybe 300,000 years ago
    3
  753. I should have said Neanderthals don't have modern Homo sapiens DNA < 100,000 years but they have ancient sapiens DNA > 100,000 years

  755.  @seanhewitt603  State a fact and I will direct you to the scientific source.
    3
  756. I've probably done more videos on females than any channel. Historically most archaeologists are male and spear head and animal bones preserve while veges and baskets do not as well. For some reason we have more male skulls as well but that so could be a bias unless more males were wondering off to caves to die alone or getting eaten by wolves
    3
  757. Good question. There is not much known about sexual dimorphism in ancient humans. Skulls that are more gracile are often Suggested to be female but that is speculative so it could be that many more skulls are actually female. Jewelry is an interesting area that women may be involved as I suggested in a recent video on the Eagles Talon Necklace. Also I did a video on Denisovan bracelet possibly worn by a female ..

  762. The split times are more like 100kya. Those guesstimates have a wide range of error. Hs mixed with Neanderthals 50kya arnd 100kya and 250kya and 500kya pointing to a long term presence in Near East. Bushman split 250kya.

    3
  776.  @davidwestwater2219  There were no "pure Neanderthals" after 100,000 years ago. They all had Sapiens Y chromosome and Mitochondrial DNA.
    3
  777.  @stevenbalderstone709  Another theory is that bow and arrow could be used by weaker members of the tribe, thus giving numerical advantages compared to hand to hand combat with spears. I can imagine a scene were arrows are just launched at groups of Neanderthals in the open..
    3
  778. Not in the technical sense. Cro Magnon was around 30,000 years ago, but sometimes that term is used to refer to any ice age Europeans
    3
  779. Oldest Cave Paintings in France/Spain are 35,000 years old. The Aurignacian people is the term used to describe this group, based on their tools. This group seems to have been replaced after the Ice Age with an group called Western Hunter Gatherers around 20,000 years ago

  817. Glad you enjoyed it
    3
  818. Yes, but they were inbreeding because they were reduced to small pockets by sapiens taking over and then if any were left they were wiped out by volcano 39kya and/or magnetic pole reversal 42kya

  825. There is more convincing fossil evidence for the origins of proto-humans in Africa than a recent origin there. Even Homo erectus may have had roots in Asia given their presense in Sunda 1.6mya. If we call Jebel Irhoud "Homo sapiens" then we must also classify Dali Man as Homo sapiens. If we call Omo 2 Homo sapiens then Solo Man is also Homo sapiens. Omo 1 is a 10,000 year old modern human female that was found on the surface, and Leakey lied about it being "partially in situ". Herto is the best example of early Homo sapiens from Africa but Skhul and Qafzeh is also early Homo sapiens. Where was the homeland for these groups? Ethiopia has always been a wasteland. More likely they were migrants from the the Lost lands of Sundaland, where it was warm and food was abundant. The problem with Genetics is that you don't know were those populations were living 100k, 200k, 300k years ago. The Mbuti split off around 200kya but what did they split from and where did they originate? Native Americans and Native Australians will tell you they did not come from Africa, they always lived there. But we know they migrated from somewhere, and the same can be said for the Mbuti. They are the oldest living population but they are not the first. Many linages die off, just look at all the genetics that have been lost in the Americas as proof. If we look at America today you would come to the The English originated in the Americas.

  841. Good question. If we were OOA only 50kya then it should be easy to find the source tribe. But geneticists conclude HS were in Eurasia 100kya most likely Persian Gulf Arabia region before moving north but this population has since disappeared and most closely resembled native Australians. It is one of the biggest mysteries that we have no examples of early HS from 100kya to 50kya except 70kya fossil from Laos but no DNA because warm climate destroys DNA Earliest European we share DNA with is probably from Goyet Cave Belgium 35k ago

  853. Maybe they had hairstyles like Native Americans. Used animal fars and obsidian knives for styling. Even animals groom themselves, so no reason that ancient humans would have looked like bums.

    3
  869. Good question. Neanderthals and Homo sapiens technically are not 2 species, more like subspecies or even "populations". They separated due to geographic barriers but came together around every 100,000 years to exchange genes. Exactly where modern humans came from is still a mystery.
    3
  870. The latest dating says they were extinct before the volcano and that most likely it was the pole shift around 41,000 years ago that resulted in high levels of radiation that they were not protected from because they had white skin

    3
  890. Some myths are 100 ,000 years old such as the Missimg Sister of the Pleiades
    3
  891. Interestingly, the Ethiopian Museum claimed the polishing on Omo 2 was the result of river transport. This seems really unlikely as that would not result in smooth polishing. Very surprising that the museum made this claim to try and separate Omo 1 and Omo 2 when Herto also has polishing that was suggested to be from mortuary practices.
    3
  892. Glad you enjoyed it! I'll give it a try lol
    3
  893. Native Americans used obsidian knives and animal fats for hair styling. Maybe Neanderthals did as well. They surely were not disheveled caveman as usually portrayed. Even animals groom themselves.
    3
  894. Levant is the neutral term, using the name of the countries is what upsets people
    3
  895. We have more evidence of Denisovans in Asia than archaic/ early Homo sapiens in Africa. We label every large brained fossil in Africa after 300,000 years as homo sapiens and every one in Europe as Neanderthals even though there is wide variation. We could do the same in Asia and label everything as Denisovan/Julerens after 300,000 years even though there is wide variation but we just cannot agree on what name to use
    3
  896. Yeah that's what I was thinking because there's no evidence that they were actually early homo sapiens
    3
  897. Yes, they must have been absolutely pumped given their lifestyle and diet compared to humans today
    3
  898. They probably had boats 500,000 years ago too
    2
  899. There was in fact admixture 200 to 300,000 years ago which is a major problem if homosapiens only lived in Africa and a new study actually showed that Africans do have a significant amount of Neanderthal DNA which is another problem also the so-called heidelbergensis species is a Eurasian and African species so why wouldn't homosapiens also be capable of Crossing that boundary many times and the fact neanderthals are only found in Eurasia suggest that that is where the last common ancestor was also

  908. Yes, but I think if they were that smart then they could also build a boat. Cheers.
    2
  909. Okay but wouldn't you say that if they lose enough of their genetics that they are technically extinct?
    2
  910. There is no "concensus". Check my scientific sources. This is just like the lab leaky theory vs wet market theory, which is the conspiracy? You just say anything that contradicts your beliefs is "misinformation"

    2
  912. Later than 120kya?

  928. Unless they did...
    2
  929. I was using it to illustrate that models are not accurate, as with the Dutch Neanderthal.
    2
  930. I'm going to use that quote in a future video😅
    2
  931. I would guess that The Hobbit arrived earlier than Java Man which means at least 2 million years ago. If Australopithecines left Africa then it could have been even earlier. The footprints from Tanzania from 3.66 Mya is interesting bc one of those individuals is estimated at 165 cm tall so very capable of walking along distances and indicating a large dimorphism
    2
  932. Thank you kindly
    2
  933. Live and Let Live is not how the human animal works
    2
  934. Imagine if all Native American place names were pronounced in the original tongue. Nobody would know what you are talking about.
    2
  935. Yes, especially in southeast Asia and Australia.

  937. Excellent. Information from the papers in the Description
    2
  938. Noted!
    2
  939. Speculation based on science :)
    2
  940. There's not a lot of agreement on what what is an erectus and what is not.. because it's generally lumped everything in there
    2
  941. You're welcome
    2
  942. Yeah brain shape is important and the organization of the brain and the density of the neurons. It seems that the large occipital region coincides with very large eyes so that was probably evolved for hunting at night.
    2
  943. Yes, it's not the size but how you use it and in terms of the brain it is also brain organization and the density of neurons as well. Sapiens have a gene that gives us denser neurons in the frontal region compared to Neanderthals...
    2
  944. No there can be changes to DNA for example like a bird changing the color of its feathers or a fish growing feet
    2
  945.  @ShoutingFromTheRooftops  I will do some research. Might make an interesting video. Thanks!

    2
  947. Thanks!
    2
  948. Scientific study seems to be controlled by a very few who control the funding
    2
  949. I did a video on that paper!
    2
  950. I don't think they have smaller eyes and Neanderthals had half a million years of evolution in North
    2
  951. It has also been described as like a criminal trial.

  953. From this study
    2
  954. And I just discovered that they were making all kinds of tools out of bone which doesn't last as long as Stone so they thought they didn't really make bone tools and of course the older things are the less likely there's going to be something around so they're probably doing a lot more than we don't know about

  955.  @lesliesylvan  "Reverse Evolution"
    2
  956. Thank you!
    2
  957. also known as anthropology
    2
  958. Yeah supposedly that info might be coming out soon
    2
  959. You might like this video. I wouldn't say it was the largest but he's probably one of the largest
    2
  960. True. If you go to the beach and pickup a piece of large driftwood, you will see it is the perfect material to make a boat. It is lightweight, buoyant and has been naturally smoothed and weathered and certain types of wood preserve a very long time. All you need to do is hollow it out with your sharp rocks and paddle like hell.
    2
  961. Some interesting points there but I would point out that when Homo anteccesor is almost a million years old which is much older than the so-called Homo.heidelbergensia which is kind of a trash bin taxa that doesn't make a whole lot of sense as far as the geography of the species. Another interesting point is the recent discovery that Africans do in fact have neanderthal DNA so how did they get it if neanderthals never lived in Africa? Also the Yoruba and the Bushman have been genetically found to have not interbred for 100,000 years even though supposedly they both lived in Africa so this creates a question of whether they actually did live in Africa together or if one of those groups migrated into Africa
    2
  962. I speculate that the reason why there are so few homosapien remains found in the crucial period from 100 to 300,000 years ago is because we were cremating remains back then and probably also lived in some warm humid environment like India and that the African fossils found so far were just explorers out on the fringes. Ethiopia much closer to the Middle East than it is to Morocco or south Africa so there's no reason to believe that homosapiens were not coming and going from Eurasia to Africa for our entire existence and therefore you cannot say we evolved on any specific continent but the fact that Neanderthals have only been found to live in Eurasia means that the last common ancestor also lived in Eurasia and therefore homosapiens originated in Eurasia. The only reason I think that geography is important is just because it is interesting to figure out the specific location which might have been actually the Cradle of civilization area that could have been the region where homo sapiens sprung forth
    2
  963. I don't think there is deliberate misrepresentation, but there is the "streetlight effect" were archaeologists look for things were it is easiest to find them and look for things to prove certain ideas rather than refute them. Stringer invented OOA so he is very defensive of the idea. There are different ways to interpret fossils and many anthropologists disagree with each other. John Hawks and Lee Berger seem to be two that question the facts the most, while Stringer defends his theory. For example, classifying Jebel Irhoud as "early H. sapiens" is not universally agreed upon. Also, the Florisbad skull dating is controversial, with John Hawks saying that it is much younger than 260kya and therefore not an early H. sapiens. Lee Berger has openly questioned whether H. sapiens were even in South Africa when H. naledi was there up to 200kya. There should be much more evidence of early H. sapiens in Africa and yet we find only a handful of specimens, whereas in Europe we have dozens of Neanderthal specimens. When you actually add up the number of "archaic H. sapiens" in Africa, you find that there are more in Eurasia and especially China depending on how you interpret the evidence.
    2
  964. Peer review is dead according to Lee Berger. Everyone knows that Peer review is just a good old boys system.
    2
  965. I don't dispute the age of AOO but there is no way to know where it originated due to migration
    2
  966. This study suggests that a mutation in skin receptor gave modern humans more protection against URV during pole shift 41kya. Neanderthals did not have this gene to protect against UVR, though it is not related to pigmentation. https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2018RG000629
    2
  967. I think the portrayal of ancient humans as "chinless" is a bit of a stereotype. For example, https://www.donsmaps.com/amud.html
    2
  968. We'd be screwed. Even a small solar flare would wipe out all electronics including computer memory and wipe out the entire financial system

  970. Joe Rogan is a Neanderthal? https://youtu.be/SxsaF3Sfbis
    2
  971. Sounds good. That's a can of worms that researchers don't want to open I think. The fact that this mystery DNA and AOO is only found in Africa means that West Africans are not the source of OOA population though...
    2
  972. It's interesting that they estimate the admixture time to be 43,000 years ago which is right at the pole reversal also associated with Neanderthal Extinction
    2
  973. Given the average percent of archaic DNA is 11% Would suggest it was pretty recent recent and the split time was around 6 to 700,000 years ago which is right around the common ancestor
    2
  974.  @jasonborn867  I agree..West Africa is largely unknown archaeologically because of jungles and also environment is not conducive to fossil preservation..it was believed that H. sapiens did not adapt to Rainforest environments until maybe 50kya with bow technology... these archaics may have lived like Java H. erectus ... isolated by jungles separating West Africa and East Africa. Seems to me this late introgression means that H. sapiens were not living in West Africa until 50kya. This is comparable to the Neanderthals holding out in Europe while Homo sapiens took over the rest of Eurasia. Another study shows that Yoruba and Khoisan also interbred around 50kya, so the Yoruba maybe migrated into West/Central Africa from some other region at that time
    2
  975. And Europe was a frozen Wasteland
    2
  976. The Yunxian Man excavation was also remarkably rigorous. I looks like they are doing surgery from the news report.
    2
  977. Next video will solve it
    2
  978. Yes often Neanderthals stereotyped as single population but existed 300,000 years over large region so likely many Neanderthals ethnic groups
    2
  979. No, Europeans have the most Neanderthal DNA
    2
  980. 🤣 I see lots of those couples in Bali
    2
  981. Good point. There is evidence that women were making spearpoints too.
    2
  982.  @TheKarenRob  In Neanderthal society, apparently there was not so much division of labor. Women went on hunts and helped haul the meat back to camp with men, rather than staying back at the cave.
    2
  983. Complete objects I should say, the Clacton spear is just the point
    2
  984. Probably male hybrid Offspring were killed too that's why there's only female Neanderthal genes around today
    2
  985. Wow, thanks!
    2
  986. Skull shape and size
    2
  987. Ancients didn't know about continents, they went wereever they wanted. We are too obsessed with borders.
    2
  988. It hasn't been done but someone is good with statistics could probably do it
    2
  989. The key is successfully interbreed, not just interbreed. I don't think that it is factual that no male Neanderthal/Sapiens males survived or they were infertile. They may have survived and been fertile, but only female hybrids were allowed to breed in Sapiens tribes because they did not want the males. Chris Stringer did a write up about this. https://www.nhm.ac.uk/discover/are-neanderthals-same-species-as-us.html

  992. All Natural!
    2
  993. Rhetorical question
    2
  994. True. Still a mystery were we came from exactly.
    2
  995. I think they enjoyed the hunt for skill and social status. Bones from kill sites show they preferred large males rather than juveniles as Lions do for example suggesting they were not primarily scavenging. They could have used rocks to disable prey then go for the kill with spears.
    2
  996. Yes, because modern humans are frail, scrawny versions of what humans looked like in the past based on how thick their bones were.
    2
  997. https://www.desy.de/gna/interpedia/greek_myth/creationMan.html
    2
  998. I think there was violence between groups, maybe even cannibalism but we were fairly evenly matched. Both groups would be much stronger than modern people due to lifestyle There might be something to the night vision given that their skulls had larger occipital regions along with larger eye sockets.. and very powerful jaws Probably had light brown skin like most humans today

  1012. Interesting if a small group of humans only left Africa 70,000 years ago you think with all the genetics we'd be able to identify exactly what tribe that was
    2
  1013. They have 0.3% actually I just learned
    2
  1014. I am working on a new video about Neanderthals in Asia - Maba and Narmada specifically
    2
  1015. Yes, they hunted rabbits, deer, etc...I think the night hunting hypothesis is a good one and also night vision would be good for survival against predators especially in the north where nights are longer..
    2
  1016. Welcome aboard!

  1030. I have lived by the sea my whole life, in a region where huge redwood driftwood logs wash up on the beach. If you go to the ocean and pickup a piece of large driftwood, you will see it is the perfect material to make a boat. It is lightweight, buoyant and has been naturally smoothed and weathered and certain types of wood preserve a very long time. All you need to do is hollow it out with your sharp rocks and paddle like hell.
    2
  1031. The busts created by museums are totally speculative too. I think there is validity in my images. Showing ancient humans as disheveled cavemen is a false idea. No reason to believe they didn't care about appearances until proven otherwise
    2
  1032. they had really sharp stone scrapers
    2
  1033. You're so welcome!

    2
  1042. I don't think where Homo Sapiens comes from has anything to do with race. They might have originally come from south Asia, but Neanderthals were in Europe, so they didn't some from there for sure.
    2
  1043. I like to throw in a few quotes by old timey anthropologists for history sake
    2
  1044. You should do a video on the origins of Homo Sapiens. Fascinating and controversial.
    2
  1045. San were original Africans and very dark skin evolved later in West African farmers
    2
  1046. I was trying to match the script that talked about a blurred taxonomic status haha.
    2
  1047. Peer review is broken. https://theconversation.com/the-peer-review-system-is-broken-we-asked-academics-how-to-fix-it-187034
    2
  1048. They seemed to have better relationship with Denisovan but Why no denisovan DNA in East Eurasia but lots of Neanderthal DNA? Maybe the Neanderthal- Denisovans hybridization 100,000 years ago essentially wiped out Denisovans in that region
    2
  1049. Reading a study on habitat and climate during the last interglacial which says that Neanderthal likely would have expanded into China during the warmer period whereas the denisovans were more cold adapted so they might have been out competed during the warmer interglacial 120kya
    2
  1050. And of course the so-called Southern denisovans would have been evolved for the Tropics switch could also mean that they were more likely built like homo sapiens who came from warmer climates especially the Solo skulls from Java which have a lot of similarities to some early homo sapiens skulls from Africa like Omo
    2
  1051. Some West Africans bred with the equivalent of an African Neanderthal which split off around 500,000 years ago. I've covered this in a couple of videos
    2
  1052. Despite the high percentage of shared DNA, the differences lie in how the genes are expressed and regulated. These differences lead to the distinct physical, cognitive, and behavioral traits between the two species.
    2
  1053. While 98.7% similarity sounds close, the remaining 1.3% represents millions of genetic differences, which account for the profound distinctions in anatomy, cognition, and social behavior.
    2
  1054. Well said!
    2
  1055. Should talk about: Why is the British NHM/Chris Stringer still perpetuating the false narrative of Neanderthals as a Separate Species?
    2

    2
  1062. Yeah the dating is way off because modern humans were all over the place by 80,000 ya
    2
  1063. Personally, I think we did, but there is no "evidence" yet..
    2
  1064. The small size of the bracelet suggested it was for a woman, but it could have been a small man or teenage boy
    2
  1065. Smoke signals is an interesting theory
    2
  1066. I think it is natural clay baked by the heat of the fire but there is evidence of humans using "ovens" in Israel to cook fish way before this time.
    2
  1067. I wonder how they crossed large rivers
    2
  1068. They survived every environmental catastrophe imaginable for 500,000 years then just went extinct when we arrived?

    2
  1073. Thanks so much!
    2
  1074. Interestingly, they date it to before that event 790,000 years ago, but logically you would think the events are related. I've done a video on that pole reversal and it was really catastrophic
    2
  1075. Yes.
    2
  1076. Check out this video on my other channel: "Mysterious 200,000 Year Old Skull Found in a Greek Cave" https://youtu.be/_a0v2lhTXCM
    2
  1077. Good point about dwarves
    2
  1078. Evil-lution
    2
  1079. I think cremation was the most logical method. May be why so few skeletons of early sapiens
    2
  1080. I talk about that in my video on Tropical Denisovans.
    2
  1081. Jebel is over 300,000 years old and then the integration was more recent, so they're saying it could be some population derived from them but wouldn't be the same and then there's other geneticists who were saying that it wasn't really a different species it was just a different population of archaic Homo sapiens in Africa so there's really a lot of disagreement about who's different archaic genes
    2
  1082.  @Cobbido  I did a video about that topic on "African Neanderthals"...
    2
  1083. Cro Magnon Man 💪
    2
  1084. I mean a critique of the theory since David Attenborough is a believer.
    2
  1085. The study authors think it is Denisovan but others dont think so
    2
  1086. Jebel Irhoud and Herto and are classifed as Sapiens based on morphology so it is really an interpretation
    2
  1087. That is a good idea
    2
  1088. You have to wonder how that affected the brain
    2
  1089. They likely could see very well at night or low light for hunting and defending camp.
    2
  1090. Seems like globular brain evolved around 150kya with Herto and Skuhl/Qatzeh being the oldest examples. Maybe humans needed better night vision for hunting and predator defense? That is a very good question I have also been pondering. Round brain may be faster processor than elongated brain too.
    2
  1091. Thank you! Cheers!
    2
  1092. Seems like genetic mutations relates to 800kya pole reversal was somehow related
    2
  1093. That is a lot to unpack. I think the Pygmy Negritos in Australia is a real interesting discussion. 🙏
    2
  1094. Khoisan of Africa have same narrow eyes. Probably ancient
    2
  1095.  @greenflagracing7067  And yet the 1987 study of mitochondrial Eve is still shown as proof of human evolution. The 1997 dog study uses the same method as mitochondrial Eve. The more recent study only looks at DNA from fossils, while the other study uses a formula to estimate divergent times so I still believe there is some evidence to suggests that wolves were at least partially tamed by Neanderthals and then humans then adopted
    2
  1096. Google "hairless chimpanzee"

    2
  1102. I felt like I needed to say that because of all the people who leave negative comments about native Australians and their way of life.
    2
  1103. Maybe we should call them Homo Sapiens Neanderthalis! I read that in the case of Denisovans the DNA mostly came from Males.
    2
  1104. Interesting thought. You're probably right. I think Sapiens evolved mostly in the Middle East/India/South Asia mostly with a little coming from Africa
    2
  1105. No they're all extinct that would be interesting to get DNA from some bones
    2
  1106. Because anthropologists like to name new species
    2
  1107. It could have also come from a more ancient interbreeding but that doesn't fit with popular theory
    2
  1108. Yes! I've covered sthe topic of Testostone levels in other videos.
    2
  1109. That's a new one to me
    2
  1110. 'The Neanderthals naturally were way more like humans than any ape alive on Earth.' TRUE!
    2

  1119. Glad it was helpful!
    2
  1120. You and me both!
    2
  1121. Yes, exactly. There is evidence that Hominins were in Asia 2 million years ago, and that Homo erectus could have evolved there and then spread back to Africa as well.
    2
  1122. There is more than one gene variant responsible for eye color, the one specific to modern Europeans developed at least 20k years ago, but there could have been other species that also had this trait. Some monkey's have blue eyes, so I don't think it makes them look more intelligent, it is just an interesting quirk of evolution.
    2
  1123. Much appreciated
    2
  1124. I don't think we can discount a theory just because who promotes it. Every continent wants to be first

  1126. I tried recording myself but I cannot string together two sentences wothout mispronouncing something
    2
  1127. Also we are all living in a simulation
    2
  1128. Lets build a rocket and blast ourselves into space!
    2
  1129. I tried a human voice and people didn't like him either lol
    2
  1130. Like some Melanesians, maybe a trait that existed in different populations in the ancient past too
    2
  1131. Never heard of that until now. Proves your point. Thanks!
    2
  1132. Maybe it's a hoax like Pilltown man, a human skull with a gorilla jaw
    2
  1133. Cold but not Arctic
    2
  1134. My other channel has several videos on that subject @mysteriousorigins1
    2
  1135. There seems to be a dearth of modern human skulls from the most important period so probably they were cremating the Dead I think whereas burial is probably a more recent phenomenon as far as the terms go there's just not a lot of consistency and how they're used especially the term archaic versus modern
    2
  1136. People have probably been wearing clothes for a million years and wearing clothes maybe is the reason why we lost hair
    2
  1137. Genetics is based on a lot of assumptions and molecular clocks and things that are not necessarily scientific
    2
  1138. I've done over 300 videos on all of these topics. Jebel Irhoud is classified as a modern human by it's gracile face. That is all. Check out my video library! I can't mention all of these topics in a 15 minute video
    2
  1139. Evidence from Sea mounts suggests sea levels much higher than today during previous warming
    2
  1140. Thanks! The music credit is at the bottom of the Description. It is called 'Arms Dealer' by Anno Domini Beats. It is from Youtube Audio library
    2
  1141. I prefer the theory that humans were brought to Earth to serve as slaves to build alien spaceports.
    2
  1142. What do you mean by 'human'?
    2
  1143. The scientific paper is in the description. Too much technical detail explain but will be making a follow-up video. One thing is clear is that the 1987 study that we all descended from a "Mitochondrial Eve" is totally false.
    2
  1144. Gene flow occurred in Levant most likely but possibly some fossils in Europe we classify as Neanderthals are actually hybrid or sapiens especially those dated to warm periods
    2
  1145. No way to know where a population lived 200000 years ago so you can't really say that a population in West Africa now also lived there live there a 100 thousand years ago just like Native Americans didn't originate in the Americas so those populations could have originated in a different region and then migrated. It's kind of telling that the integration of archaic genes in West Africans occurred around 50 thousand years ago which is around the same time that the Neanderthal mixture occurred with modern humans in Europe so that might suggest that the Yoruba were moving into West Africa at that time
    2
  1146. Clothing made of fur. Lack of hair is likely due to sexual selection
    2
  1147. Because DNA shows that the women moved between groups while the men stay in the same group, which is what is seen in modern Patriarchal hunter-gatherers.
    2
  1148. Many many thanks
    2
  1149. Self Domestication started more like 100,000 years ago with invention of better hunting weapons, ie bow and arrow and spear thrower so that we did not need to hunt with animalistic ferocity stalking prey and stabbing them
    2
  1150. Nobody is full homo sapiens
    2
  1151. Skinny jeans most likely
    2
  1152. Indeed, the Chinese just threw a big monkey wrench https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.05.16.594603v1.full
    2
  1153. Thanks for watching!
    2
  1154. Yes there are definitely still neanderthals in Europe
    2
  1155. You are so welcome!
    2
  1156.  @bunnyniyori6324  The most recent studies have debunked the theory that Toba caused a population bottleneck because of the reason I stated. Most of the ash from Toba went into the sea and only Sumatra and to the east in Malay Peninsula was heavily affected by ash. The effects in the northern latitudes on Densovan-Neanderthal populations, however was likely much more than on Tropical Homo sapiens.
    2
  1157. According to Prof. Chris Stringer, world expert on ancient humans, who I contacted about this information, there is a soon to be published study that backs up the dates that Erectus and Sapiens overlapped in Java. I don't know what you mean that the 1996 study dates are not confirmed. There is disagreement, but that does not mean that older research is wrong. Erectus varies widely between Africa, Indonesia, and China and the Java Erectus seem to be the most advanced, and lived the longest, so you cannot compare them all across time and space. Anthropologists cannot even agree what specimens should be included as Erectus, such as the fossils from Georgia, so you cannot say that all Erectus had the same capabilities.
    2
  1158. Not same as any today.
    2
  1159.  @The_Judge300  I think they probably had a sense of style. Evidence shows they used Hyena fur and bird feathers as well.
    2
  1160. Florida?
    2
  1161. There wasn't really much to show, https://youtu.be/9aSJXL3uMeE?t=510
    2
  1162. Homo sapiens erectus
    2
  1163. Glad it was helpful!
    2
  1164. It appears that Neanderthal children lack some of the more Neanderthal traits like big brow ridges. This is an indication that our last common ancestor look more like modern humans than Neanderthals and then Neanderthal traits are more derived
    2
  1165. "...the world-wide population of human beings skidded so sharply we were down to roughly a thousand reproductive adults. One study says we hit as low as 40." https://www.npr.org/sections/krulwich/2012/10/22/163397584/how-human-beings-almost-vanished-from-earth-in-70-000-b-c It is NPR, so it must be accurate.
    2
  1166. "So many humans died following the eruption and resulting climate change that humans went through a population bottleneck, where as few as 40 humans were left alive (Rampino & Ambrose, 2000). " https://artexplains.medium.com/the-truth-about-the-toba-catastrophe-theory-bf1990650079
    2
  1167. If it was AI I think it would probably be better
    2
  1168. Interesting that the bottleneck occurred near last full pole reversal 790kya so maybe dates could be off 100lk years
    2
  1169. Ooops
    2
  1170. Their occipital region (vision) was large and this probably made less room for areas that controlled concentration and creativity.
    2
  1171. I think they had trained elephants that swam across and they rode on their backs!
    2
  1172. Maybe a Genghis Khan like scenario but maybe as you say the invaders were seen as Gods with their tall physique and advanced tools and body adornments...and culture
    2
  1173. We see the same Night Sky that ancient humans looked at 1 million years ago. What did they think as they sat around a fire?
    2
  1174. One study estimated it could be as little as 25 Neanderthal womem.. Depends on many factors. It seems almost all the interbreeding took place in the Middle East and not in Europe so that would mean that most of them were not absorbed only a small group and then that population of maybe 1000 homo sapiens then spread out and grew rapidly. There was a population of around the Persian Gulf 80,000y ago and it just grew rapidly rather than there being a continuous flow of humans from Africa. There's not any evidence of some huge population of homo sapiens replacing on the European Neanderthals in fact it was more of like a small Sapiens population with Bow and Arrows that drove the larger population of Neanderthals to Extinction
    2
  1175.  @CunningStuntsGoFast  yes or Sapiens women were not able to successfully give birth according to the study
    2
  1176. Building a raft is basically the same as Building a shelter so they could have been seafaring
    2
  1177.  @DAlienzombie  I'm not sure I understand the question
    2
  1178.  @LuisAldamiz  Sundaland must have been a major region of human evolution that is totally gone
    2
  1179. Please refer to the sources mentioned in the video description
    2
  1180. I'll take a look!
    2
  1181. Right they were a group of homo sapiens that were called cro-magnons
    2
  1182. Never heard of it
    2
  1183. No
    2
  1184. Bigger, not better. The rear of the brain that is used for vision was much larger but other areas for socializing and concentration were smaller.
    2
  1185. Breakdown of magnetic field increase URV radiation that reaches earth, radiation causes genetic mutations https://youtu.be/9lkPDXbCWF0
    2
  1186. That's probably been different races for like a million years
    2
  1187.  @TheLionFarm  Imagine all the coastal sites that are underwater. Humans would have used whalebones to make structures and maybe even boats, and all the huge driftwood logs would have made excellent boats too.
    2
  1188. Lake Bakal seems like it was a hub for Eurasia
    2
  1189. Caves
    2
  1190. True, I should have said they were descended from the first AMH
    2
  1191. Thank you! Cheers!
    2
  1192. David Reich has some interesting views. Geneticists often disagree and use different computer models and molecular clocks..
    2
  1193. I suspect that our ancestors interbreed with hormonality and that's where we got the mutation for a denser number of neurons in our brain because they had small but evidently very sophisticated brains
    2
  1194. Thanks for the feedback. Trying improve this on each video.
    2
  1195. They weren't a different species but they don't want to admit that either
    2
  1196. Women would all mate with the best looking most dominant male if given the choice
    2
  1197. Check out this Video on my other channel: "The 100,000 Year War to Rule the Europe | Neanderthals vs. Humans" https://youtu.be/bMqSCJtOUa8
    2
  1198. 27KYA the climate was about midway between now and an ice age, so the sea levels were lower. The deepest ice age was 40KYA. Definitely was very nice climate compared to Eurasia.
    2
  1199. Probably..50,000 year old story
    2
  1200. Probably an ancient human woman was tougher than most men today
    2
  1201. There is a link at the bottom of the description
    2
  1202. Interestingly one group was found to be Vegetarians
    2
  1203. No DNA from Africa older than 20,000 years because it is too hot to preserve DNA.
    2
  1204. Plenty lived to 50.
    2
  1205. Well you should watch the end of the video because it was actually an anthropologist that said that although not in those exact words
    2
  1206. Yes however Cord or string is much more complex to make than strands of leather.
    2
  1207. I think that is very true. Homo erectus was the first Homo Sapiens. I have a video on that.
    2
  1208. You sure about that? 🤣 my theory was that Neanderthal women left for the modern man because he had fancier tools
    2
  1209. I think her video was actually a response to my video on Cro Magnon
    2
  1210. Microscopic analysis shows the log was scraped to make that shape apparently
    2
  1211.  @mossig  Apparently the scrapes are from a sharp edged rock and all going the same direction rather than just random scrapes but it is true that trees can grow around other trees in this manner too. Nonetheless, I think that humans were building with wood long long ago..shelters and even rafts
    2
  1212. You're so welcome!
    2
  1213. I just think that there's no real boundary between Africa and Eurasia and that humans were going back and forth constantly so you can't really say that we came out of one or the other
    2
  1214. may have
    2
  1215. Climate stability is rare
    2
  1216. And gone to war with them
    2
  1217. You should be skeptical of all information including from BBC, National Geographic and mainstream media channels. Do you trust North02 or Stefan Milo or PBS Eons? North02 never shows his face, and PBS Eons uses an actor to present information and Stefan Milo uses phrases like "boinkfest". All the information in my videos comes from Scientific sources. My background is just as qualified as North02, Stefan Milo or the producers of PBS Eons.
    2
  1218.  @rorygilmoreNZ  Well I am glad you at least watch my videos. Tyson has some interesting takes lately.
    2
  1219. "Out of the Cradle" from Japan
    2
  1220. Sorry I have a brain injury it prevents me from using my real voice. This is much better believe me. 🤟
    2
  1221. That was my conclusion too, after the intro
    2
  1222. I will look into that...
    2
  1223. 12.5 stones of muscle?
    2
  1224. I wouldn't be surprised if Homo erectus was hunting Australopithecus
    2
  1225. The climate is always changing and never is stable
    2
  1226. I thought Monster was better than Cannibal
    2
  1227. Don't tell that to females. Haha
    2
  1228. They found sharks teeth nearby and they matched scratch marks
    2
  1229. You bet!
    2
  1230. We can learn from neanderthals that size doesn't always matter
    2
  1231. 🤔 my newest video actually debunked everything in this video
    2
  1232. Youtube doesn't like nudity, ,even paleo nudity. Fern next time lol
    2
  1233. Stefan Milo coined that term
    2
  1234. May do a video on that topic
    2
  1235. 90% of the women were probably mating with 5% of the biggest strongest man
    2
  1236. More than one way to pronounce words, like neanderthal or neandertal
    2
  1237. Bow and Arrow would put a quick end to someone with a spear
    2
  1238. Yes, it was just a particular cultural group in western Europe 40,000 to 10,000 years ago more or less
    2
  1239. Probably use a sharp stone or bone blade, like in the old west
    2
  1240. Maybe ancients were like the Romans and had big wild parties. Very possible.
    2
  1241. Study from Germany suggests they were thriving 50kya. If they were smart and adaptable I don't think they would have low population and lack of genetic diversity. They were widespread all they way East almost to China. I think low diversity only occurred at end once wiped out by superior race
    2
  1242. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2016/07/160721105511.htm
    2
  1243. https://www.sci.news/archaeology/straight-tusked-elephant-neanderthal-hunting-11619.html Unless Homo sapiens had invaded Europe and done the butchering during interglacial 125kya or hybrid populations. I'm starting to think by 50kya many Neanderthal groups were hybrids judging by symbolism and better tech by this time
    2
  1244. Thank you! Cheers!
    2
  1245. I just learned that Northwest Native Americans used boats with sails
    2
  1246. There is this article that states H. heidelbergensis were 7ft tall. Denisovans were thick-boned but I've never heard they were tall. https://www.bradshawfoundation.com/origins/homo_heidelbergensis.php
    2
  1247. Read the study and you tell me.
    2
  1248. Thanks for the comment. I think it is obvious if they had the skill to hunt and make a spear, they could make a simple watercraft
    2
  1249.  @jasonborn867  Bali to Lombok is an easy crossing especially during lower sea levels. The sea there is very calm and warm. You can see Lombok from Bali and there are many small islands in between. Today they use small outrigger canoes to go to sea. It is not hard to understand why humans would want to across.
    2
  1250. Awesome, thank you!
    2
  1251. Even if there's enough food to.go around, was there tolerance of different species.
    2
  1252. Humans vs Predators
    2
  1253. Unless favoref by sexual selection
    2
  1254. Thank you kindly!
    2
  1255. Neanderthal mtDNA was totally replaced by Sapiens DNA https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/how-human-y-chromosomes-replaced-those-neanderthals-quiet-genetic-takeover-180975944/
    2
  1256. Interesting!

  1257. https://www.science.org/content/article/africans-carry-surprising-amount-neanderthal-dna
    2
  1258. Egypt is in Africa so I guess they were not very smart
    2
  1259. Check description for sources. Is there a specific topic?
    2
  1260. Within the range of some modern females
    2
  1261. Welcome aboard!
    2
  1262. 2000 years would be pretty recent. It seems to be a lot of disagreement about the evolution of different haplgroups especially at the split M to N
    2
  1263. Thanks 👍
    2
  1264. Sorry there was some issue with it so I took it down.https://youtu.be/fdnkkVJkVb0
    2
  1265. Thanks for watching!
    2
  1266. Neanderthals more closely related to Sapiens.
    2
  1267. I think the date is a typo.. New DNA evidence that wolves separated from dogs 100k years ago...
    2
  1268. I don't think you watched past 30 seconds 😄
    2
  1269. Glad you enjoyed it!
    2
  1270. Unless wearing fur clothes
    2
  1271. Originally, in the 80s it was how the Leakey's got funding for work in Kenya and Ethiopia
    2
  1272. I should have expanded on that. I meant the average Neanderthal in his prime vs the average man today. The average Neanderthal, based on studies of their bones, was as strong as say, Aaron Donald of the NFL, who can bench press 500 pounds easily. I can only bench press 150 on a good day, so maybe not 6x but somewhere in that range. All stone age humans were much stronger than humans today, due to their lifestyle. The average stone age woman was stronger than the average man today even.
    2
  1273. Denisovan maybe
    2
  1274. Thanks for the support. There is one other example of impact/pole reversal around 1m years ago in Africa. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaramillo_reversal I agree - we know they were building shelters 1 m years ago and it is not so different to build a raft that floats, and make a purposeful voyage. Hunting in groups requires lots of coordination so they would use that skill for other ventures as well.
    2
  1275. https://www.archaeology.org/news/11094-221223-europe-bear-skin
    2
  1276. That image comes from this study where they essentially reconstructed the likely morphology from DNA https://www.cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092-8674(19)30954-7 I didn't go into this in detail as I have in previous videos.
    2
  1277. Maybe why they disappeared
    2
  1278. It's very limited to DNA from fossils that were deep in some cold dark cave but the technology is advancing
    2
  1279. I think Omo Kibish is closest ancestor. Omo I and Omo II are probably very closely related despite some who think they are not the same population. Omo I may be female which would be the reason for being more "gracile". Bodo is 600k years old and could be an ancestor but too archaic to say for sure.
    2
  1280. The "unpublished research" quote is from Chris Stringer, of the UK Natural History Museum who I contacted for this video. The 2008 research backs up the date of the new, as yet unpublished research
    2
  1281. There is just as big differences within "races"
    2
  1282. 90% same as today
    2
  1283. Thanks for watching!
    2
  1284. https://youtu.be/Lx6fXDlrD4Q
    2
  1285. For Homo sapiens, yes 40,000 years ago there is art, which implies modern level creativity. For Neanderthals, there is some evidence of artistic expression and personal adornment which would mean imagination and you would think story telling.
    2
  1286. Sling shots are an interesting idea. I never thought of that. I think rocks and clubs first, then simple spears, then throwing spears/javelins, atlatls and then bows. But there is anatomical evidence that rock throwing may have been a primary driver in early human evolution, and is the reason we can throw 100 MPH fastballs today.
    2
  1287. haha you might hear that line in one of my future videos!
    2
  1288. That would be fun. Old school stuff!
    2
  1289. Whenever I see monkeys running around I realize that if they were caring Spears and building fires that we would exterminate them
    2
  1290. Schematic is correct, but text reversed
    2
  1291. 😉
    2
  1292. Another big question is where neanderthals and modern humans split. I would think it's somewhere in Southwest Eurasia so therefore you could say that modern humans originated there maybe 400,000 years ago. I think if you go back 500,000 years ago the human populations were a lot like now where you have different groups in Europe Asia and Africa
    2
  1293. I think its like pronouncing "Herb" with the h or without. It depends on where you are
    2
  1294. There is disagreement if 500kya was the split or introgression but I think introgression https://www.nhm.ac.uk/discover/who-were-the-neanderthals.html#:~:text=Scientific%20evidence%20suggests%20our%20two,at%20about%20650%2C000%20years%20ago.
    2
  1295. Apparently the integration from denisovans in Island Southeast Asia also came from males which is interesting because maybe there was a cultural practice that Neanderthal women mated outside the group whereas Denisovon Men mated outside the group or there was some biological reason
    2
  1296. Those dates are inaccurate..40,000 is now accepted as last date
    2
  1297. Yeah, I read something about Neanderthal genes being related to this. You could get a DNA test to find out how much Neanderthal DNA you have.
    2
  1298. I appreciate that!
    2
  1299. You mean the Pyramids they build in Finland?
    2
  1300. Castaways lol
    2
  1301. Why a stereotype?
    2
  1302.  @TheLionFarm  The Mercator projection map was originally made for navigating the ocean, but was also use for political reasons
    2
  1303. Check out this Video on my other channel: "The 100,000 Year War to Rule the Europe | Neanderthals vs. Humans" https://youtu.be/bMqSCJtOUa8
    2
  1304. I didn't mention but probably comes from same stock as Flores. Hard to say without more bones
    2
  1305. Glad you think so!
    2
  1306. You bet!
    2
  1307. Yes, I think it was not necessary Isreal (aka the Levant) but someplace further east like maybe Iran where there is virtually no paleo anthropology done to date. Humans have been coming and going out of Africa for 2 million+ years. No reason Sapiens were limited to a certain continent.
    2
  1308. You could get pretty buffed hunting mammoths with nothing but a spear
    2
  1309. Balterdash!
    2
  1310. Textbooks are frequently wrong. Fire could be used if the wood is really hard but for soft driftwood a stone hand axe would be fine per experimental archaeology
    2
  1311. Except to refer specifically to the Cro-Magnon rockshelter early modern humans
    2
  1312. There are a couple of skulls there that suspiciously like a homo erectus hybrid as well
    2
  1313. Thank you!
    2
  1314. Welcome aboard!
    2
  1315. Right...What what is your subspecies pronoun

    2
  1318. Yes I agree, maybe binding was done to make the skull look less archaic
    2
  1319. I look at a lot of bones
    2
  1320. The script is written by this channel, based on the sources cited in the description and in the video. Thanks for watching :)

    2
  1323. Welcome aboard!
    2
  1324. Neanderthal women wanted to move up
    2
  1325. Sharp scraping tools
    2
  1326. I can barely even hear ...are you using a hearing aid or headphones or something?
    2
  1327. Then we killed all the males with bow and arrows.
    2
  1328. 1100 T is crazy high for mid 40s.
    2
  1329. I appreciate that!

    2
  1331.  @mrmikemrmike  I did a whole video about this topic of UVR. https://youtu.be/9lkPDXbCWF0

  1334. What thumbnail guy is not white, he is brown.
    2
  1335. Maybe Out of Arabia

    2
  1337. No
    2
  1338. Apparently lost during WW2 in China, maybe buried someplace...
    2
  1339. Except when referring specifically to the Cro-magnon culture of France and not a larger demographic of humans
    2
  1340. I agree with your insights. To me the big question is exacty when and where did Homo erectus become fully humam for lack of a better word. Dmanisi is very primitive. Java Man 1.5 million years is much more evolved, so did African or Asian populations give rise to later Erectus or did another group? There is disagreement on what is classified as H erectus . I think by 900k years ago they essentially became archaic Homo sapiens, which then branched into Neanderthals and Denisovans eventually one lineage rose to the top. 900,000 years ago massive bottleneck wiped out most branches with only 1 surviving
    2
  1341. No, it is other channels that copy me. Extinct Zoo did the same video on Neanderthal strength that I did months ago for example.
    2
  1342. Sorry, it is kind of complex. But basically you have 3 skulls that date to around 300,000 years ago with hollow browridges that are typicallyl classified as Homo heidelbergensis that probably are actually 'archaic homo sapiens'. The taxonomy is totally confused in this period but the hollow brow ridges may be the missing link!
    2
  1343. Just a little more hairy than some guy I saw at the beach recently 😃
    2
  1344. I just did....
    2
  1345. Many paleo-anthropologists disagree with his views
    2
  1346. Yes near WHL50
    2
  1347. Seems to be debate about ghost DNA with latest study saying the ghosts were other H sapiens populations and not archaic species
    2
  1348. Mt Etna and Santorini likely
    2
  1349. Happy to help
    2
  1350. Primitive comes from Primate. Let's redefine the word to mean something smart and adaptable!
    2
  1351. or Boabab
    2
  1352. Exactlly, we have a northern latitude bias and don't realize that humans mostly have lived where it is warm even during ice ages
    2
  1353. No sugar coating here!!
    2
  1354. @North02 has a video on them.
    2
  1355. Okay
    2
  1356. They had all the same blood types as modern humans..ABO
    2
  1357. Very likely. It's kind of funny to me that people actually think there's some racial or political motivation about this theory.
    2
  1358. Cro Magnon have nothing to do with humans outside of Europe, they were a specific group at a specific time and place, call them what you want.
    2
  1359. Obviously!
    2
  1360. Working on it!
    2
  1361. Latest research is they were all dead by 40kya
    2
  1362. Glad you enjoyed it!
    2
  1363. Probably because we at them.
    2
  1364. Also, some West Africans have up to 19% "archaic" DNA, from a mystery species that was probably something akin to an African Neanderthal. This may be the reason why West Africans excel at many sports. Africa is a very diverse place so it is misleading to speak of "Africans" and assume you are talking of one particular group. North Africans, Bushman/Pygmy and East and West Africans are as different from one another as Asians are from Europeans. https://www.sci.news/genetics/west-africans-dna-archaic-hominin-08123.html
    2
  1365. There seems to be evidence of humans in Britain during the colder phases but not during the warmer phases when there was higher up sea levels and there's actually evidence of humans in Britain almost a million years ago
    2
  1366. I have a couple of videos on Homo Erectus in Java that go into more detail on that subject
    2
  1367. Ever heard of Java Man?
    2
  1368. From the book "who we are and how we got here"
    2
  1369.  @jasonborn867  This is the most interesting study on early humans I think. One of the more interesting questions is exactly where Neanderthals and Sapiens split from each other ~600kya. This paper suggests that split was in southwest Asia, and that then Sapiens then went into Africa ~300kya. https://hereditasjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s41065-020-00163-9
    2
  1370. Depends on when we think H. sapiens started. We split from them 500kya, but they say the modern human didn't come about until around 100kya, so it is just how we draw things up on the tree.
    2
  1371. I think there was some mutation that occurred in a small group of homo sapiens that then spread out from some unknown geographic location around the Red Sea
    2
  1372. They likely hunted small game like rabbits or birds with a throwing stick per historical data from recent hunter gatherer tribes
    2
  1373. Whites went extinct multiple times due to UV radiation during pole reversal events
    2
  1374. Could be on to something
    2
  1375. That's a really good observation
    2
  1376. I agree with most of Hawks' views. He is one of the few to offer different view from mainstream British Museum dogma
    2
  1377. I never say that. I'm talking about ancient hominins that lived long before modern Africans
    2
  1378. Yes assimilation of a population of Homo sapiens neanderthalensis
    2
  1379. Correct!
    2
  1380. True the Homo rhodesiensis name is controversial. I think it's just kind of annoying to preface everything with some disclaimer
    2
  1381. Very true. Denisovans lived 10,000 feet up in the Himalayas during colder climates than today
    2
  1382. One theory of what initially separated the Neanderthals and Sapiens was a mutation in mtDNA that made them incompatible around 500kya
    2
  1383. Thanks a ton!
    2
  1384. Math
    2
  1385. Thanks for the sub!
    2
  1386. I'm working on that idea
    2
  1387. Should be a new study coming out confirming that we overlapped with them in Java
    2
  1388. Their attempts at art left a lot to be desires for sure
    2
  1389. Haha, I think there was a show on History channel a long time ago that said that too.

  1390. https://johnhawks.net/weblog/how-much-do-y-chromosome-haplogroups-shape-our-views-of-modern-human-origins/
    2
  1391. I don't think you can lump all scientists into one group
    2
  1392. He probably violated some international treaties
    2
  1393. I don't think it sheds light on the timeline but I am going to be doing video on the subject where they came from.
    2
  1394. I wonder how much money they get from USAID
    2
  1395. Because YouTube just automatically puts that there and I can't do anything about it
    2
  1396. Glad it was helpful!
    2
  1397. They were created by aliens by mutating H erectus to be slaves to build spaceports
    2
  1398. 500k years more or less
    2
  1399. Probably why it gets so many YT recommendations
    2
  1400. Thanks for watching!

    2
  1402. That's the specific genes that give modern humans blue eyes may be different than what gave neanderthals blue eyes it's like blonde hair there's different Gene combinations that can give you blonde hair like Melanesians have blonde hair that's different from Europeans
    2
  1403. Much appreciated
    2
  1404. Well said. The problem with the Stone Age is that only Stone survived and not wooden things like boats and big Driftwood would have been plentiful back then and easy make into a raft as any child would do
    2
  1405. 65% prefer TH so cannot please everyone
    2
  1406. Probably different races go back before H Sapiens were around ...
    2
  1407. Only 3 had full genome sequence and maybe a couple dozen have had partial sequence.. probably a few hundred individuals but many of them are just represented by a tooth or a single bone or something
    2
  1408. No doubt
    2
  1409.  @sfbuck415  You should see the comments that get censored 🙄
    2
  1410. Thank you so much 😊
    2
  1411. You're welcome
    2
  1412. Just discovered it was a Denisovan hiding in a museum
    2
  1413. Computer modeling and guess work
    2
  1414. No
    2
  1415. Good question. Populations can be estimated by using habitat modeling and introgressed DNA....Neanderthals populations at different times are estimated to be 30k to 100k depending in climate. Papua it would be 500-5000 for stable population and for any isolated island population you would need this size for example Phillipines, Indonesian Islands. So possibly up to 20,000 for Island Southeast Asia. For mainland South Asia would range 50k to 100k depending on climate. Colder climates in East/Central Asia similar to Neanderthal habitats would be 30-100k individuals. So likely 100-200k Denisovans at different times.
    2
  1416. The ones back then were really mean not like the cute and cuddly ones we have today
    2
  1417. Why?
    2
  1418. That was my conclusion too.
    2
  1419. A life spend wrestling wooly mammoths and dismembering their carcasses
    2
  1420. I agree, the braincase not the face is what distinguishes H. sapiens
    2
  1421. Melanesians
    2
  1422. Thanks for the visit!
    2
  1423. Fair enough!
    2
  1424. If you ever travel to places where there is no blue eyes and blonde hair, they think you are a god.
    2
  1425. Because the British Museum.verified them
    2
  1426. I don't think population was down to 40 people, but there was for sure some truth to the conflict. I don't think that Neandethals and early modern humans were so much different though in terms of their physical ability
    2
  1427. Dark skin pigmentation does not mean Black
    2
  1428. Used by Anthropologists to include regions of the Middle East usually during low sea levels.
    2
  1429.  @marcv2648  Yeah, I should have been more specific. If you look at the topography when the seas are nearly dried up, there is no real boundary between Arabia and Africa.
    2
  1430. Glad you liked it!
    2
  1431. Very early Neanderthals 500kya, not later
    2
  1432. Warm climate on a sunny Australian beach would be nice but not Ice Age Europe.
    2
  1433. Voodoo
    2
  1434. True, that is the controversial aspect of the study
    2
  1435. Glad you like it!
    2
  1436. I found it interesting that the authors of the study including Chris Stringer say that this finding suggests Neanderthals could have migrated to Africa. They didn't specifically say that they believe Nubian sites in Egypt could have been made by Neanderthals but that is the implication.
    2
  1437. Good breakdown on this topic. I would counter that Mousterian is found on north African coast and Morocco, and some would say that Jebel Irhoud could be a hybrid because of elongated braincase while some argue that Neanderthals from the Middle East/Near East/Southwest Asia could actually be Sapiens especially Amud and Shanidar. Amud is an interesting specimen with a very modern face and very tall skeleton much like Sapiens but with an elongated braincase like Neanderthals. Meanwhile recent studies cast doubt on Chatelperronian being Neanderthal with more evidence of Sapiens in Europe 45,000 - 40,000 years ago. There is much to debate on this subject of tool technology and hybridization. Skhul/Qatzeh group is very enigmatic. Their burials and shell beads are very Sapiens but their jaws are much more primitive than Omo/Herto so there is something strange there that Hybridization does not account for. The skull from Laos dated to c 80,000 years ago is very modern compared to any others and is the only Sapiens skull from that time any were.
    2
  1438. Several fossils estimated to be 50 years of age though
    2
  1439. Brain folding is hard to figure out based on the skulls but brain structure was probably similar going back to around 800,000 years when a big leap occured
    2
  1440. Châtelperronian has a similiar problem in that it is found in layers associated with late Neanderthals but seems to be a Homo sapiens technology. Personally I think Châtelperronian was Sapiens tech.
    2
  1441. You are welcome!
    2
  1442. I wonder how they cooked food and stayed warm without wood
    2
  1443. There are 6myo Hominin footprints from Crete and fossils from Bulgaria
    2
  1444.  @MariaNI-yf1bz  I just read that...seems that some aspects of the morphology suggest that it walked. But the curve in the bone might have been deformation from fossilization. I might do a quick video. Thanks!

  1446. You’re welcome! 🐵
    2
  1447. Probably climate change
    2
  1448. Actually there is proof of fire use inside cave
    2
  1449. With the bow and arrow you could hunt in the dense rainforest or on the open plains and even use it for fishing. That seems to be the technology that set us apart which was of course needed Superior brain power to create
    2
  1450. Thank you!

    2
  1457. ​ @KenSoHappyClegg  Sorry you had a problem. I don't have that problem and there is 99% like ratio, so I have no idea. But thanks for letting me know.
    2
  1458. Interesting
    2
  1459. Which Ice Age? There is one every 40k years
    2
  1460. I read one study that says that Native Americans inherited Lip shape from Denisovans, based on specific genes.
    2
  1461. Well the Dutch must have a good education system compared to where I went to school
    2
  1462. These humans could do incredible things we would deem too risky
    2
  1463. That's the Paleo Diet
    2
  1464. Thanks! I'll check out the paper.
    2
  1465. Yes this video was sponsored by George Soros haha
    2
  1466. Thank you for feedback. I just did 2 videos on Homo erectus. Working on something about Denisovans and early Sapiens.
    2
  1467. There were some British scientists involved too
    2
  1468. Thanks for watching and commenting, it really helps the channel grow.
    2
  1469. Thanks that's a great idea!
    2
  1470. Good question. Probably in their genome somewhere!
    2
  1471. The birth canal thing but there's a lot of variation in female hip sizes nowadays
    2
  1472. Microscopic analysis showed the log was scraped with a sharp rock to make the curve
    2
  1473. Yes there is conflicting information as to early modern humans in South Africa some think it's the Cradle of humanity and some believe humans didn't arrive there until 130,000 years
    2
  1474. Glad you enjoyed it!
    2
  1475. Thanks for the comment. As with any channel, even PBS Eons or something mainstream I think you need to read the sources and do your own research if it is something you are really interested in. Many of the human narrators are just actors who don't know much about the topic they are speaking on. Blake De Pastino of PBS Eons is an actor for example, not a a scientist. AI generated content tends to use generic stock photos and produce very generalized content, not original images and research. In this particular video although the human images are AI generated, 90% of the video content is not AI. The images/video of the skulls are taken directly from scientific reports and presentations..
    2
  1476. There is actually quite a bit off difference. Just look at the differences is people's head and face shapes and sizes.
    2
  1477. Also the evolution of the nasal phalanx, which is little disscussed
    2
  1478. Wouldn't surprise me at all. Denisovans were very capable seafarers and explorers.
    2
  1479. I bet they would think we are pretty stupid https://youtube.com/shorts/hUr8CTcoiOs?feature=share
    2
  1480. Probably by age 4
    2
  1481. Modern Man are emasculated Homo erectus
    2
  1482. The surprising thing of this site was the number of cannibalized remains. Human bones were mixed in with animal bones, and accounted for 20% of the total. There are lots of articles on the subject. https://theconversation.com/our-ancestors-were-cannibals-and-probably-not-because-they-needed-the-calories-75667
    2
  1483. Neanderthal Vikings. Dugout canoes easy to make with driftwood logs. Risk is relative..if facing death on a daily basis then crossing ocean is no big deal. Humans like challenge and adventure. Rafts don't work on ocean...totally impractical...dugout used all around the world. Acheulian handaxe good tool to make dugout
    2
  1484. If I had a time machine I would go back to this time!
    2
  1485. Yes! This also suggests Homo sapiens did not evolve in S Africa and the Bushmen did not always live there
    2
  1486. 130k could be early H sapiens or Denisovans
    2
  1487. https://www.science.org/doi/full/10.1126/science.aap8369 https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.aat6598 I meant at the end that there is disagreement.
    2
  1488. Probably in certain a certain tribe only the most intelligent and physically gifted males reproduced...thereby leading to rapid changes. They may have even realized they could "breed" better offspring this way.
    2
  1489. Thank you very much!
    2
  1490. Awesome, thank you!
    2
  1491. They did possibly invent the Levallois spearpoint
    2
  1492. Evolutionary psychology is highly speculative by nature
    2
  1493. Good thoughts
    2
  1494. I don't think EEMH lived in central Asia close to Mongolia
    2
  1495. Yeah I watched his video and I hadn't heard about those finds, so humans were spreading pretty fast once they got out Africa... the question is did some of them go back into Africa after evolving. Now there's Paranthrapus that were using stone tools 3 million years ago in Kenya so those tools could have belonged to anybody. Arabia and the Middle East should really just be considered part of Africa
    2
  1496. Africa and Eurasia are technically a single continent so separating the two is over complication
    2
  1497. Only found in 1 cave far as I know
    2
  1498. No we're simply reporting on a study that was then questioned by another study because many scientists do not always agree especially when it comes to population genetics but yeah we're just debunking our own video and maybe make a follow up debunking the debunk video 👀
    2
  1499. Glad it was helpful!
    2
  1500. The species Homo heidelbergensis is a highly debated classification as outlined in this article https://nutcrackerman.com/2016/11/09/a-moment-of-silence-for-the-death-of-homo-heidelbergensis/ «In reality this species should have stayed dead instead of being resurrected in the 1980s», Juan Luis Arsuaga
    2
  1501. I've known people from Thailand that are spitting images of Aztecs. There's a huge variety of looks of people in Asia
    2
  1502. Cannibalism
    2
  1503. I never say they were not smart, Just not as smart as us as far as inventing. Maybe they used brains differently for example had better hand eye coordination but less abstract intelligence. Comparing genes doesn't mean anything because most don't relate to brain. Denisovans may have been smarter. Men have larger brains than women but are not more intelligent so size is relative
    2
  1504. The definitely overlap especially the pole reversal 800,000 years ago
    2
  1505. Random Neanderthal guy
    2
  1506. I believe Rhodesia was a single colony in 1921 and then it was split in North and South in the 1950s before coming independent countries in the 1960s
    2
  1507.  @CandideSchmyles  Interesting that the Dragon Man paper is co-authored by Chris Stringer of the British Museum and godfather of OoA theory.
    2
  1508. Such an incredible place to from!
    2
  1509. Thank you. Took some practice 😊
    2
  1510. Sir David Attenborough would agree
    2
  1511. They tried to rewrite it
    2
  1512. The editor has been reprimanded
    2
  1513. You could say that Europeans are not "native" to Europe too
    2
  1514. Meaning they were fierce
    2
  1515. Apparently my video gets restricted and not recommended
    2
  1516. Thanks!
    2
  1517. Good point
    2
  1518. I doubt disease was a factor because it took 1000s of years for migrations rather than crossing the Atlantic in weeks so anyone carrying disease would not live
    2
  1519.  @jasonborn867  Who knows where this source lived 200,000 years ago. We know Native Americans didn't originate in the America's, so maybe many groups living in Africa now once had larger ranges outside of Africa
    2
  1520.  @emjay2fly  True, they did cover a wide range and timespan. The more northern groups were taller.
    2
  1521. Probably there are skulls but the DNA is too degraded to identify. But we have many skulls that are classified as Neanderthals that we don't have DNA for and yet we still classify them. Chinese don't want to use the Russian word "Denisovan" for their fossils, so that is the problem. They prefer Homo longi while in Australia there is reluctance to do research because of past stereotypes.
    2
  1522. I never say that they deny OOA. They question African Multi-regionalism and early H. sapiens presence in South Africa. I don't deny OOA, but I think it is more complex and involved regions outside of Africa such as the Middle East/South Asia as well.
    2
  1523. I have 2 new videos on Denisovans that cover this
    2
  1524. I am not a computer that is how I talk
    2
  1525. We need to become an inter planetary species
    2
  1526. Thanks! 👍
    2
  1527. Europe and Africa have the same ideas. If you look at the evidence China has as many 'archaic' sapiens as anywhere at this point.
    2
  1528. There is no firm lines between species for sure
    1
  1529. Love your Thumbnail!

  1530. I think Wokelness is being overly sensitive to actual facts
    1
  1531. Diseases are mostly linked to domestic animals or rats
    1
  1532. Depending on the craftsmanship of spear

  1533. Check out this Video on my other channel: "The 100,000 Year War to Rule the Europe | Neanderthals vs. Humans" https://youtu.be/bMqSCJtOUa8
    1
  1534.  @astrovation3281  I didn't mean it was caused by humans leaving Africa. I mean the warming climate caused humans to leave Africa .
    1
  1535. The analysis of the wound suggests it was made with a small, thin arrowhead like Sapiens used rather than a large spearhead like Neanderthals used
    1
  1536. Yes, about the same and maybe a little higher
    1
  1537. One source says that mutation led to 10x increase in neuron development compared to Neanderthals
    1

  1545. I think it was more of about finding something in England to rival Heidelbergensis and Neanderthalensis in France and Germany, in order to further careers at the British Museum.
    1
  1546. We are being brainwashed by an evil agenda and it is about subjugation not equity
    1
  1547. Just like Native Americans were absorbed probably
    1
  1548. We were all brought here by aliens
    1
  1549. Of course a Neanderthal would have to do some training but naturally they World more gifted and of course of a neanderthal is on steroids that would really give him an advantage
    1
  1550. You should ask chat GTP
    1
  1551. True
    1
  1552. What makes you think I am not human?

  1559. Bow and arrow was invented in Africa most believe. The "de-evolution' idea of H. Naledi is from scientific paper https://elifesciences.org/articles/24234 Search 'evolutionary reversals' in the text. John Hawks, the discover of Naledi is the one who raised doubts about ecological niche overlap. Read my sources.

  1562. Soon we will be able to get DNA!
    1
  1563. Homo eregaster being African Homo erectus?
    1
  1564. I think adaptive integration is the most economical hypothesis when it comes to why certain genes are bred out and others not and I agree that Reich has some good ideas
    1
  1565. Also I think humans are practicing cremation many hundreds of thousands of years ago and burial is more modern phenomenon therefore lack of bones
    1
  1566. True. I think we need to infer they were intelligent as us based on brain size
    1
  1567. I think the portrayal of ancient humans as "chinless" is a bit of a stereotype. For example, https://www.donsmaps.com/amud.html
    1
  1568. Most fossils are not confirmed by DNA
    1

  1572. Imagine all the Giant Driftwood logs on the beach back in the Stone Age that would make perfect boats
    1
  1573. Awesome! I have to use some of this in a future video!
    1
  1574. Yeah I don't know either reluctance I guess it's just because Homo sapiens are the one to we're supposed to have been the Smart Ones and especially in the region of Indonesia and the Philippines were the sea is very calm and warm it would be very simple to paddle something across
    1
  1575. Yes Neanderthals started it all 100k years ago
    1
  1576. Neanderthal mtDNA was replaced by Sapiens DNA. I was saying that Neanderthal men died from conflict or hunting, so there was no one else left.
    1
  1577. I've got over 200 videos on all topics related to Neanderthals and ancient humans...Thanks for watching!

  1581. Which ones were moronic? lol
    1
  1582. True, that is a generalization. Men have larger brains than women on average but that doesn't make us smarter.
    1
  1583. There was no widespread bias against African origins.

  1590. Early Europeans 30kya and Native Americans both come from Central Eurasia so very likely
    1
  1591. The Phillipines was not connected

    1
  1598. There is also political pressure by some countries to make ground-breaking finds. Especially Ethiopia and South Africa, are always competing to be the Cradle of Humanity. Ethiopia kicked out western Archaeologists in 1980 and then all of a sudden the Garden of Eden Hypothesis was born.
    1
  1599. Lots of sources in description. Let Berger would disagree

  1600. Great video!
    1
  1601. True. The question is why sudden technology advances after 500k years of the same
    1
  1602. There are no human fossils in Africa dated to 40,,000-100,000 years
    1
  1603. I find it hard to believe an arboreal creature was hairless. Ouch!
    1
  1604. Yep
    1
  1605. DNA says they split from Homo Sapiens over 600kya, so this means that Homo Sapiens also evolved in Eurasia

    1
  1625. Neanderthal had gorilla-like strength and reflexes, pound for pound.

  1627. Some monkeys have blue eyes so why not extinct hominins that were probably 2 million years removed from us?
    1
  1628. You can see 20 miles
    1
  1629. Probably in a few years they'll be able to get DNA from just about anything but right now there's very few fossils they've been able to get DNA from especially in Africa and Asia but I agree it will definitely change things once we can get DNA from fossils
    1
  1630. Thanks for watching

  1634. Interesting. Acacia would really tale off after fires
    1
  1635. I don't think we can say that with 100% certainty. There are many possible combinations of gene mutations that can cause blue eyes. One gene associated with blue eyes/light skin arose 247,000 years ago and another 629,000 years ago. https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.aan8433 According to this study one introgressed Neanderthal haplotype overlaps with blue eye variants. "However, it does contain a variant that is associated with blue versus brown eyes in Europeans" https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0960982216312672
    1
  1636. I think China is not near the equator and the Cro Magnon lived 30,0000 years ago but I agree Europe is over-rated compares to those later Civilizations.
    1
  1637. They could have made clothing using birch tar glue, which works great for making waterproof clothing
    1
  1638. Nee Guinea Highlanders have the most Denisovan DNA and technically Australia and Papua New Guinea are one land mass until like 39,000 years ago so it seems obvious that they were living in the on the islands especially since you have the sea Nomads that have that unique diving ability that they got from Denisovans

    1
  1641. I'm more familiar with the Fort Bragg in California 😀

  1654. They lived in the cold north for a 300,000 years, they had warm clothes so they didn't need to have fur or dark skin and no female is going to mate with a man that has too much hair all over his body because hairlessness is sexually selected trait
    1
  1655. Very true!

  1660. Yes Dravidians from India colonized Australia 4k years ago bringing dingo, new language and tools.
    1
  1661. Also no archaic Homo sapiens DNA or indisputable evidence

  1665. Wow. This channel is a science channel, not a mystery channel. The content is totally different. I don't specifically know how I knew the phrase, but is pretty common I think.
    1
  1666. I don't think rafts would work on the ocean. Maybe on lakes or to cross rivers, rafts would be fine. So I agree rafts were first and then came ocean-going canoes.
    1
  1667. ​ @infidel202  If you go to the ocean and pickup a piece of large driftwood, you will see it is the perfect material to make a boat. It is lightweight, buoyant and has been naturally smoothed and weathered and certain types of wood preserve a very long time. All you need to do is hollow it out with your sharp rocks and paddle like hell.
    1
  1668. I am starting to think they were mostly Denisovans
    1
  1669.  @jasonborn867  This paper concludes AOO is 208kya old, not 338kya and thus it is the same age as other A haplogroups. Therefore it came from a now largely extinct branch of H. sapiens. This A00 population was probably a sister group to the Khoisan. So it seems that A00 does not come from the Ghost archaic which is much older...although A00 is at about 8% in some populations which is about the same as the 11% archaic Ghost genes...so it is possible that A00 and Ghost genes came from the same admixed population.. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4135414/
    1
  1670. Jebel Irhoud is suggested as a source for this archaic genes, but in fact Morrocco is 2000 miles from Cameroon/Nigeria, which is the same distance as Ethiopia or Zambia, so Kabwe could also have been the source.
    1
  1671.  @jasonborn867  Geographically, Morocco, Ethiopia and Zimbabwe are about the same distance from Cameroon/Nigeria so could be any of those lineages.
    1
  1672.  @jasonborn867  There doesn't seem to be any more recent work than the 2014 paper. John Hawks has a blog post, were he thinks it is 'possible' this haplogroup may have entered recent human populations by interbreeding with a more ancient, diverged branch of archaic humans..so the jury is still out

  1684. The Yaghan of Patagonia are known to run around virtually naked in freezing temperatures and have gene that gives them cold tolerance. Neanderthals likely also had more cold tolerance than humans today.

    1
  1696. Thanks for the view!
    1
  1697. Probably result of some Hn groups being heavily admixed with Hs 100,000 years ago
    1
  1698. Homo Sapiens were in Australia 70kya, so they must have left Africa before then
    1
  1699. Probably half of my bureaus are hypersensitive Neanderthals lovers
    1
  1700.  @Kenjin536  There have been piles of round rocks found at caves dated to 2 million years. Homo erectus had an essentially modern body by that time so throwing was already evolved by then. I imagine it would be pretty easy to sharpen a crude spear. Even chimps use spears so I imagine that is very ancient.
    1
  1701. They don't agree with each other either
    1
  1702. The other one became inactive apparently
    1
  1703. Omo 1 skull reconstruction by same scientist is highly questioned as well

    1
  1707. Nope, there was a 30 mile wide ocean between the Phillipines and Borneo even at the lowest sea levels of the coldest ice ages, bro..
    1
  1708. I am always being to to say Den-eesovans, but my Russian is not so good so I have no idea.
    1
  1709. I think that is a strong possibility but that these were not "Homo erectus" but instead "Southern Denisovans". The 12 skulls are interesting. Were they killed by other's fo their kind or by invading modern humans.
    1
  1710. Yeah we haven't got any DNA from so-called neanderthals from the Middle East which could in fact be homo sapiens because they're very different from European Neanderthals
    1
  1711. Turns out the Chinese have been correct all along when it comes to archaic Homo sapiens in Asia long before OOA was supposed to happen. West labelled everything in Asia as Homo erectus to avoid this question.
    1
  1712. They are intelligent to avoid us.
    1
  1713. The Torres Strait Islands were inhabited and those people are advanced seafarers

  1714. https://www.bradshawfoundation.com/origins/homo_heidelbergensis.php
    1
  1715. Interestingly, the original reconstruction of Piltdown Man does not show him as European-looking. In fact, he has darker skin. MOST scientists did not believe the hoax and it is actually surprising to learn of all the good science that was done at the time but was ignored by the British Museum. It was more a case of furthering careers and the location was just one of convenience. For example, https://www.sciencehistory.org/stories/magazine/the-problem-of-piltdown-man/
    1
  1716. In fact, even Arthur Keith, the anatomist who was known for his Eurocentric views didn't believe the Piltdown Man was very ancient and probably knew it was fake but didn't want to discredit his colleagues in London. I think the Natural History Museum is pushing this narrative that the Piltdown Man hoax succeeded because of Eurocentrism when in fact it was all about furthering the careers of a couple of people. It is interesting that the Head of the Museum back then seemed to say nothing about the fossil, and only Smith-Woodward and his assistants supported it.
    1
  1717. Probably the most likely scenario. In fact 5000 years ago when Bronze weapons were invented 80% of male yDNA disappeared because only men with best weapons reproduced
    1
  1718. The proof is that their population and culture cease to exist and was absorbed into the modern human population just by human nature we know that two vastly different populations are not going to get along and every hominin group is extremely territorial and violence. Just like when Genghis Khan ran through most of Eurasia or the Spanish ran through the Americas plundering everything
    1
  1719. @lorezo barra The video is actually about how did they get to The Philippines from Indonesia/Java
    1
  1720. Thanks!
    1
  1721. So by your logic then white Europeans have no right to Europe because they were not there first and anyone can take over. Very woke idea.
    1
  1722. There will always be lots of speculation in archaeology.
    1
  1723. I've never heard of any dwarf Neanderthal skeletons but that would be fun
    1
  1724. You mean because we evolved from Oranguan in Asia and not Chimpanzees in Africa?
    1
  1725. Not a modern feminist for sure
    1
  1726. Yes at low sea levels you can sea outer banks from Timor. I cover that in my video on Southern Denisovans!

  1727. https://www.science.org/content/article/africans-carry-surprising-amount-neanderthal-dna
    1
  1728. Initially it was slow but it picked up fast. No evidence Neanderthals had anything but stabbing spears and throwing sticks. No javelins or bows. They definitely had fire and language.
    1
  1729. Homo erectus had huge browridge, maybe a remnant of having huge Jaws to chew raw food as well
    1
  1730. They ate wholly mammoth bone marrow which can been stored for months
    1
  1731. ​ @apexassassin5606  They also hunted many other animals including deer, birds, rabbits, basically anything they could catch and kill. On the coast they ate fish and seafood, and also gathered tubers and plant food. Bones can be stored for months and then cracked open to eat the marrow. I don't believe they were in any constant state of near hunger. There were times in history that there would have been starvation due to extreme cold but that wasn't the norm. They were very mobile and could go to new areas to follow game. Predators were a problem but if they were starving all the time I don't think we would all be here. They were much more intelligent than we give them credit for, not running around naked and scavenging food. Modern humans are weak compared to ancient humans, who were like wild animals. Just look at the physique of a gorilla or chimpanzee.
    1
  1732. @apexassassin5606 They had different genetics than us. That is why the gorilla comparison. They are not the same.
    1
  1733.  @chetcarman3530  She was the better looking sister to this one https://nypost.com/2019/09/20/we-finally-know-what-our-prehistoric-relatives-looked-like/ You know how ancient skulls always have perfect teeth? They also had perfect hair and skin complexion too
    1
  1734.  @TheTamriel Yes, I've read that study though like most genetic studies not all scientists agree
    1
  1735.  @michaels4255  Probably from the Persian Gulf, they paddled around Indian and down the coastline of Indonesia at low sea levels. Elephant Seals re-populated from a single colony in Mexico all the way to Canada in 100 years from a population of a few dozen to now over 200,000 by going from beach to beach, only selecting the best beaches
    1
  1736. Sources are in the description for your reading please. That is where the 'chin' thing comes from
    1
  1737. Most of the diseases caused by domesticated animals so humans carried diseases long distances not likely
    1
  1738. The video topic is Neanderthals in the Middle East, not northern Europe.
    1
  1739. Equally funny because most people think I am pushing Eurocentric idea
    1
  1740. Such as the standard Out of Africa timeframe, which has been increasingly shown to be incorrect.
    1
  1741. The occipital bun which is for vision is much larger in promitve humans. Maybe they had much better vision
    1
  1742. What do you think of the Reconstruction of Omo 1? I think that they should use some Modern computerized 3D imaging to reconstruct it but that has never been done
    1
  1743. It is a slippery slope for sure.
    1
  1744. Except they may have done it more than just in times of desperation
    1
  1745. Why are they standing
    1
  1746. Great idea.
    1
  1747. Small women give birth to big headed babies all the time though so I do tknow it would be a problem. Look at Shaquille O'Neil and his wife
    1
  1748. Bracelet dated by layer it was in, it was small therefore likely a woman. Broken in an attack is speculation by scientists not myself
    1
  1749. Much appreciated!
    1
  1750. Just Discovered it is a Denisovan 😄
    1
  1751. If you believe there are more fossils in Africa and Europe than in Asia then that proves my point that Asian fossils are under-studied. Java has around 20 ancient skulls from 100,000 to over 1.6 million years alone, and China has probably over 2 dozen important archaic human fossils. Java Man, Peking Man, Yunxian, Maba, Dali, Junnusian, Solo Man, Dragon Man..just to name a few. The fossil collection of 12 skulls from the Solo River in Java is one of the most important fossil discoveries ever made but since it wasn't found in Europe or Africa or the Middle East then it is rarely discussed.
    1
  1752. I'm so glad!
    1
  1753. Africans have a surprising amount of Neanderthal DNA Google it
    1
  1754. I'm not exactly sure what you are asking
    1
  1755. Neanderthals were gone by 40kya from what I understand. It is not so easy to find 'facts' when dealing with things this old. Dates are questioned, evidence is fragmented, data is subject to interpretation
    1
  1756. Wow, thanks!
    1
  1757. Her highly rigorous content 🤣
    1
  1758. Not true. Many anthropologists believed Europeans evolved from Neanderthals 100 years ago. The Out of Africa model said Neanderthals were unrelated to modern humans. Out of Africa was wrong.
    1
  1759. Kind of like saying Herb with or without the H. No Right or wrong
    1
  1760. virtually nothing that old that can be proven completely so there's always speculation
    1
  1761. I learned something nee and changed my mind on that 🧐
    1
  1762. Because San split off Ling before Out of Africa
    1
  1763. Really
    1
  1764. DNA will rewrite everything once we can get DNA from every bone
    1
  1765. Okay I have dozens of video's if you want to understand. Thanks for watching and commenting!
    1
  1766.  @Omega-g3i  Omo 1 is on the ancient shore of Lake Turkana when the lake was 60 metres higher around 9,000 years ago and the lake flooded a vast area to the north of the current lake. Whether the Omo 1 fossil was found on the surface or in Situ is conflicted by different scientists who were on the expedition. Leakey says "partially in situ" but doesn't say what was in situ and what was not, while others from the expedition say it was a surface find, rendering any dating of the soils it was found on top of incompatible.
    1
  1767. We know that Neanderthals cannibalize other Neanderthals and we know the history of modern humans so there's no reason whatsoever to believe that there wasn't the same thing going on between the two groups even though some people want to think of the Neanderthal as a noble savage who lived in peace and harmony with nature. Learning about history doesn't justify anything. I don't make videos for children so not sure what that's supposed to mean
    1
  1768.  @Healitnow  Odd. It works for me. I will let them know. Thanks!
    1
  1769.  @WOTHAN66666  Odd. It works for me. I will let them know. Thanks!
    1
  1770.  @richardwalton6993  True. I argue that in my new video, but get pushback that Homo sapiens is only 300kya old. I think H. sapiens goes back to the split 800kya and that Neanderthals/Denisovans are Sapiens subspecies and there is also H. bodoensis in Africa.
    1
  1771. Just read a few papers questioning whether Middle Eastern Neanderthals are really Neanderthals at all or actually Sapiens, ie Amud, Shanidar
    1
  1772.  @jonmitchell9019  There was still a 30 mile gap between Luzon and Borneo even at the lowest sea levels
    1
  1773. There isn't anything repeated
    1
  1774. I think it's possible there was a major Invasion around 130,000 years ago during a warm period by Homo sapiens which is also evidenced by genetics
    1
  1775. Never seen that date 163kya.
    1
  1776. The only scientists that ever believed in Piltdown Man were ones who invented him, from the British Museum
    1
  1777. Ice Age wiped them out 25kya
    1
  1778. I appreciate that!
    1
  1779. Reproduction faster and having more offspring survive is a product of being more resilient and more intelligent. Not as if Neanderthals have 15 month gestation period or something
    1
  1780. No problem 👍
    1
  1781. Thank you so much
    1
  1782. It seems they occupied many niches. The amazing thing about the footprints is that whoever made them must have had cold weather clothing, or been really able to withstand cold, because it was thought that humans didn't start making clothing until much later. Homo Antecessor in Spain was thought to have not been very intelligent based on their tools, and did not even seem to use fire, so it is a total mystery who left the foot prints. Probably some early Neanderthal branch, since they liked the cold.
    1
  1783. The study just looked at modern humans and determined that based on genetic diversity there was only 1300 humans around 900,000 years ago.
    1
  1784. Yes there are definitely affinities between Spanish fossils and those in North Africa and there's lots of stone tools on Islands beyond the Wallace Line
    1
  1785. 1.8 years ago would be the most Optimum time for them to arrive in Java based on the sea levels but I'm sure they were widespread in the lower elevations that are now underwater around Borneo and there's been almost no archaeological working done in Borneo so there's probably something to find there
    1
  1786. Welcome aboard!
    1
  1787. Real science like Garden of Eden and Adam and Eve children's fairy tales
    1
  1788. On average 25% stronger than an NFL Linebacker who is probably 5x stronger than the average guy because an average Neanderthal life style was akin to a professional contact sport athlete. They were absorbed by modern humans with greater technology.

    1
  1802. West Africans are very different from East Africans. Sub-Saharan includes several different populations such as KhoeSan as well. Africa is more diverse than Eurasia so cannot lump all together. There is little to no Neanderthal DNA But plenty of other non Sapiens DNA. The point about thick bones as denser muscles applies to all archaic humans not only Neanderthals
    1
  1803.  @okusfayreno8599  I agree, most evidence was washed away for sure. Humans lived off the ocean, used boats 100,000's years ago.
    1
  1804. You're welcome!
    1
  1805. If you believe Out of Africa
    1
  1806. Thanks! Interesting
    1
  1807. True, I think that this idea of "symbolism" or "art" in determining intelligence is very arrogant. Crafting tools is an artform, and I don't think they were walking around looking like homeless people, they cared about their appearances.
    1
  1808. The study would only apply to ancient humans that passed their genes down to us and other branches of hominins eventually went extinct so there was a lot more than 1500 but where exactly these 1500 were living is a matter of debate
    1
  1809. Yes I have a video in the works on that and it is very interesting because the time actually overlaps exactly with when modern humans also entered Europe. It wasn't really believed that even modern humans lived in tropical rainforests until recently so if archaic humans were living in West Africa that would be interesting but the fossils just don't get preserved there. Most likely it was H rhodesiensis Heidelbergensis or whatever you want to call it.. there's also some interesting things including Neanderthal genes in Africans

  1819. There are monkeys with blue eyes too so it is not just a white trait

  1820.  @TheTamriel  Maybe the humans hunting straight tucked elephants in Germany 120,000 years ago were not Neanderthals, but Homo sapiens following the herds.
    1
  1821. In Europeans but could be extinct lineages with these phenotypes. Melansians have different genes for blue eyes and blonde hair than Europeans for example

  1852.  @jasonborn867  according to the most recent study they can actually tell how old the jeans* were in modern humans and they're saying that the Neanderthal genes in Africa are 200 thousand years old... the oldest lineage, the Bushmen and Pygmy have Neanderthal DNA so there wasn't really so much a diffusion around sub-Saharan Africa as there was small population that spread out from the North to South

    1
  1870. The image at 2:30 shows the 5 African populations tested, all just south of the Sahara, 4 in West Africa and 1 in Ethiopia. The percentages are similar across all groups. Later gene flow could account for Ethiopia but not likely in West Africa. These groups have about 30% the levels of Neanderthal DNA as Eurasians, so that would mean they should have 30% Eurasian DNA if it was all from recent back migrations.
    1
  1871. Probably different races go back a million years.
    1
  1872. They've evolved separately in several populations ..Melanesians have blue eyes which come from different gene than Europeans
    1
  1873. Yeah the bow was the weapon that gave us the advantage for sure! Long range weapon you could use without risking yourself. The finding of arrowheads in France dated 55,000 years ago is really ground breaking and the use of boats.

    1
  1913. You are implying those in South Asia have less Melanin than North Africa
    1
  1914. Yeah in fact there's evidence that earliest Europeans did not integrate with neanderthals and that Neanderthal DNA was brought from the Middle East in later waves of migration
    1
  1915. TRUE. I think only one Denisovan and maybe ten Neanderthal genomes have been fully analyzed so likely there was much more variation.

  1924. https://www.bradshawfoundation.com/origins/homo_heidelbergensis.php
    1
  1925. Cro-magnon is an ill-defined term but the Western hunter-gatherer may have come from North Africa and then mixed with some ice age Europeans and it's actually West Africans have the admixture not all sub-Saharan African which occurred around 40,000 years ago which was after Eurasia was occupied but I agree that there are a lot of different arguments to be had. Europe has been depopulated several times during the ice ages including around 900,000 years ago and then pretty much depopulated around 30,000 years ago except for Spain and Greece.
    1
  1926.  @kylealexander593  This study is probably the best on related to WHG. They trace them to the Villabruna Cluster in Italy dated up to 19kya which have blue eye genes but still a mystery why they do not have light skin genes of other Eurasians. Italian peninsula could have served as pathway for north Africans who of course not the same as Sub saharan Africans. Probably had more dark brown than black skin. Blue eyes probably evolved in the Caucasus region 40kya despite one report stating 8000 year ago. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-023-05726-0

    1
  1930. True but they had such simple stone tools, that would not make it easy to cut things up small
    1
  1931. It's actually much more like the Nenderthal than a homo sapien when you look at the entirety of the skull not just a few facial features

    1
  1935. The title says Modern Humans aka Homo Sapiens.
    1
  1936. Neanderthals were actually known as Homo sapiens neanderthalenis from 1960s until the 1980s. Denisovans have not been given a scientific name probably because they should be considered a subspecies of H sapiens

  1953. Europeans in general do, so I would guess. I am working on a video about how Neanderthal DNA affects your personality.

  1955. West Africans up to 19%. Neanderthal and Denisovan DNA is also considered "Archaic". Mostly those genes have to do with resistance to Tropical diseases and other health and metabolic traits for living in Tropical Jungles.

  1982. Good point but it seems like hairlessness was sexually selected rather than a biological adaptation, otherwise there would be many hairless mammals running around. If they were mostly scavenging then why would they need to engage in endurance running? Maybe they were running away from predators rather than chasing prey.

  1992. According to a recent study, Black skin is actually a more recent trait (and therefore more advanced) while light skin is the ancestral state of the ape. "The latest findings suggest that some particularly dark skin tones evolved relatively recently from paler genetic variants, underlining how deeply flawed the racist concept of people with whiter skin being “more advanced” really is." https://www.newscientist.com/article/2150253-gene-study-shows-human-skin-tone-has-varied-for-900000-years/ There are many different genes that effect skin tone, so saying that "white skin did not appear until 12,000 years ago" only means that the gene responsible for white skin in modern humans evolved 12,000 years ago. Light skin has always been around, just using different genes. So ancient humans such as Neanderthals would not have the exact same pigmentation genes as modern humans because genes are always mutating, and like you say you cannot predict 100% what a person's pigmentation is based on a single gene. The idea that a hominin living in a northern Ice Age climate for 500,000 years had dark skin goes against the laws of nature. " Most of the genetic variants associated with light and dark pigmentation from the study appear to have originated more than 300,000 years ago, and some emerged roughly 1 million years ago, well before the emergence of modern humans. The older version of these variants in many cases was the one associated with lighter skin, suggesting that perhaps the ancestral state of humans was moderately pigmented rather than darkly pigmented skin." https://penntoday.upenn.edu/news/penn-led-study-identifies-genes-responsible-diversity-human-skin-colors These articles reference this study: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.aan8433
    1
  1993. Also, the gene for light skin in Europeans evolved around 28,000 years ago but only became common in Europe 12,000 years ago. There are many studies that support this. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/342675066_Skin_colour_and_vitamin_D_An_update

  2028. Interesting the bow and arrow seems to have come to the Americas with last migration around 10,000 years ago and not earlier
    1
  2029. Probably the same reason people left Europe and went to America
    1
  2030. DNA would be only way to 100% confirm. But most Neanderthal and Sapiens fossils also don't have DNA.

  2057. I have just as many complains when I use real human narrator too
    1
  2058. Agree
    1
  2059. "Human" is a general term used for anything in the genus Homo.... but I would argue that Neanderthals are definitely close enough to be considered subspecies or even just variations of the same species even though this video is not about that topic. Modern human is used to describe homo sapiens from the last 50,000 years so even a homo sapien that lived 200,000 years ago would not be considered a modern human
    1
  2060.  @jan_07  We could argue whether Homo habilis should be in the genus Homo as well. Endless ways to disagree.
    1
  2061. Great point!
    1
  2062. Reverting to primitive traits such as smaller brains and bigger brows
    1
  2063. Artwork?

    1
  2065.  @TheTamriel  Are you just an enthusiast or a professional anthropologist?
    1
  2066. One interesting concept is that it had something to do with the pole reversal 41,000 years ago and we have a greater ability to absorb UV radiation than Neanderthals
    1
  2067. Thanks ✌️
    1
  2068. Depends on your definition of savage
    1
  2069. There is very little Denisovan DNA in East Asians, mostly only in Island southeast Asia we find Denisovan DNA.

  2073.  @jasonborn867  This paper studied DNA up to 18kya and they found Neanderthal DNA but that is still very recent... https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-022-04430-9
    1
  2074.  @jasonborn867  What evidence is there that West Africans for example have any Eurasian genes? Africans would have other Eurasian genes if they got Neanderthal DNA from Eurasians. Some Africans have up to 1% Neanderthal DNA, so it is not a tiny amount. If that came from Eurasians then that means they should have 25% Eurasian DNA, since Eurasians have up to 4% Neanderthal DNA
    1
  2075. Except that this study is saying that humans came from south Asia not Europe

  2080. That's because they're hunting deer with a bow and arrow not wrestling woolly mammoth to the ground with their bare hands in Ice Age conditions eating bone marrow of Prehistoric Beasts lol
    1
  2081. The study you referemce is out dated. Blue eyes in modern humans evolved 40k years ago and became widespread by 10k years ago. 2 recent finds in Italy dated to 16k years ago had blue eyes. Cheddar Man had blue eyes 10k years ago. Neanderthal gene variants associated with blue eyes are found in Europeans and date to over 200k years ago. There is more than 1 gene associated with blue eyes, just like blonde hair in Melanesians there are different combinations of genes that can cause blue eyes.
    1
  2082. Yes, I am trying to make people fear an extinct species

  2089. One thing I just read was about the the huge brow Ridge was necessary to reinforce the skull because of the large eye sockets so when we evolve smaller eyes we lost the big brow Ridge which also has to do with losing the occipital bun
    1
  2090. What makes you think I am not human?

  2095. Low birth rate or high infant morality?
    1
  2096. Most of those studies are done in collaboration with European scientists
    1
  2097. Maybe there art was made from wood or things that didn't survive or things like body paint tattooing and clothing
    1
  2098. Yeah, I think all the coastal settlements have been washed away, so we are vastly underestimating the importance of living off the ocean in general, including use of boats and deep sea fishing, which explains why modern humans discovered Australia before they got to Europe
    1
  2099. We'd be speaking Chinese probably
    1
  2100. Why?
    1
  2101. Those dates are from an old study, must recent studies put the mutation at 40k and there are confirmed fossil samples dating to 19k in Italy
    1
  2102.  @paperboy...8667  There were some survivors in Spain...then just after 20,000 years ago people return to Italy
    1
  2103. Around 1930
    1
  2104. Higher testosterone levels could cause advanced arthritis seen in some Neanderthals aged 40-50 years old, as well as high protein diets.
    1
  2105.  @NORTH02  'A fossil human humerus from Khvalynsk: Morphology and taxonomy' March 2010 Archaeology Ethnology and Anthropology of Eurasia This author has done some research on the theory that Neanderthals had high testosterone levels based on their bone density.
    1
  2106. Interestingly it seems like the Neanderthals died out when they were hardly any Homo sapiens in Europe but the bow and arrow could easily wipe out a lot of Neanderthals and also prey animals so you could have a relatively small group of modern humans with bow and arrow technology could wipe out hundreds of neanderthals just like Europeans with modern weapons wiped out Native Americans and native Australians
    1
  2107. I don't agree with everything in the paper but there is not enough research into this region compared to Africa and Europe and I think this is one of the best papers on that subject.
    1
  2108. Nope!

  2120. Good question. I did a video on the subject of Australian DNA in Amazon https://youtu.be/CfnA5a9BmEU Funding is often tied to Out of Africa and scientists who conflict with that theory often have funding pulled. I think many scientists lost all credibility with Covid Coverup with peer-reviewed articles published in 'Nature'.

    1
  2136. If you don't have civilization are you an "Uncivilized" savage?
    1

    1
  2153. Cloying is a new word for me. I think it humanizes fossils to tell a story
    1
  2154. I think they are quite a bit larger than African Pygmies or Bushmen. Africa is very diverse. West Africans have up to 19% genes from some Ghost species akin to an African Neanderthal which likely accounts for their genetic superiority.

  2186. How is it manipulated and taken out of context?
    1
  2187.  @tvrulz46  This video was not intended as a deep dive of that entire interview. The title simply states that what he said about Neanderthal Ancestry was "jawdropping". He did say "Eurasians are Neanderthals". Obviously, I cannot replay the entire interview which is why there is a link to the interview provided so that anyone can come to their own conclusions. "Clickbait" implies that the content of the video is not what is implied by the title and/or thumbnail. The video discusses whether Neanderthals are a separate species or the same and the implication for classifying them as 'Homo sapiens neanderthalensis' so I don't see how it is clickbait. Reich's comments were just one piece of evidence for the larger discussion. Personally, I think we are the same species and I agree with Reich's views. Recent Out of Africa proponents often discredit Reich for saying we are the same species because that disrupts that theory.
    1
  2188.  @tvrulz46  No I never changed the title. I said he said "Non Africans are essentially evolved Neanderthals" because although he said "Non Africans are Neanderthals" as to your point, what he meant is that Non-Africans (including Europeans) could be considered Neanderthals that have evolved by interbreeding with Homo sapiens...
    1
  2189. The mutation for blue eyes in modern humans arose recently but there are different mutations that can cause blue eyes and Neanderthals had different genes that could have caused blue eyes
    1
  2190.  @mikligardur9104  Blue eyes can also result from combinations of different genes just like red/blonde hair so likely ancient humans had many different combinations of traits for last 1 million years
    1
  2191. You meam the shifting poles every 7000 years? Actually doing a video on the Neanderthal Extinction 42,000 years ago that was probably had to do with a shifting Pole also 800,000 years ago was the last full reversal which corresponds with the split of Neanderthals and humans so I think the timeline has a lot to do with full reversals and shifts but this video doesn't go into that topic
    1
  2192. Maybe they were perfectly happy living with as hunter-gatherers which is the most preferable lifestyle to our Modern Life. Maybe they had cultural beliefs that limited their technological inventiveness rather than intelligence being the cause of their simple ways
    1
  2193. Maybe I should do the entire video in a German accent ;)
    1
  2194. Hell yeah around 120,000 years ago there was an interglacial warm. With high sea levels but it only lasted about 5,000 years on the site would correspond with the high sea level it seems like the Aboriginal colonization of Australia around 65 to 70,000 years ago coincided with a cold period where the sea levels were lower and the cold weather would have pushed populations South so that could have been a reason why there was population pressure and so the same thing may have happened you know 300,000 years ago when apparently a lineage of Denisovans split off from the main group an interesting some of the more recent Aboriginal skulls that have some more archaic features all come from the same South Eastern part of Australia

  2195. The only stock video is the Intro and Outro cave scenes

  2196. It is a Hypothesis based on two studies from 2013 and 2019, which are the most recent studies on the morphology of the WLH 50 skull and the Denisovan genes in Papua/Australia....Conjecture would imply a lack of information. I think both of these studies are highly detailed.
    1
  2197.  @Sam-ci6sl  I think there is enough evidence to call it a Hypothesis, not conjecture which implies there is a lack of evidence. The DNA study is very solid evidence and the skull morphology is good evidence as well, though skull morphology is always subject to more subjective criteria.
    1
  2198.  @Sam-ci6sl  The study linked in the description 'Multiple Deeply Divergent Denisovan Ancestries in Papuans' strongly suggests a 3rd Denisovan lineage was only in Papua/Australia which was a single landmass until end of last glaciation.

There are very few skeletons but they all show signs of massive musculature so if average Neanderthal equalled best athletes of today then well trained Neanderthal would beat Mike Tyson easy
    1
  2234.  @jasonborn867  Aspinall probably has half of the speed/strength/aggressiveness of a Neanderthal in his prime. Of course if you are talking about a very specific type of fight with strict rules then a Neanderthal would require some training. If you put the two in the woods in a no rules fight to the death then I suspect any modern human fighter would get his skull bashed in. Neanderthals had very thick skulls so I think they would very hard to knock out and I don't think they would submit. I don't think the larger/taller argument is so valid. Any well trained fighter even if he is 5'5" could beat up a guy who is a foot taller who was untrained.

  2255. The video is based on scientific sources not my assumptions
    1
  2256. I am not sure what narrative you mean, but I do agree that modern humans were in India and China by 80kya and I mentioned in the video we were in Palestine/Levant around 100kya, then apparently got chased out by Neanderthals until around 55kya. Whether modern humans who went into Europe around 50kya were direct from Africa or came from East Asia, I don't know. The studies I have seen from Romania and that region say that those people did not survive to pass on their genes to modern Europeans. The most amazing thing is that modern humans got to Australia around 70kya, which is long before we got to Europe, so there was some reason for that. Thanks for the thoughtful comment. There is always new information coming out on this subject!

  2260. Thanks for your comment. Here is the full presentation by Stringer.. nothing is taken out of context. There is tons of speculation about what was the last common ancestor and how old it is but it seems to be getter older and older. One paper I just read, also co-authored by Stringer, says the LCA is over 1 million years old. Homo antecessor seems to be off the line going to modern humans and most specimens normally included with Heidelbergensis are too young. This paper suggests Yunxian skull may be close to LCA... https://youtu.be/bySp0XRr2O0?si=UvMTDaldlPGxXak3 https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.05.16.594603v1.full

    1
  2272. I say that the 3 so-called Denisovan groups are just as divergent from each other as Neanderthals are from Homo sapiens, so they should be given different names. Population Y refers to the ancient Australasian signal which has Denisovan genes associated with it which probably came from a now extinct group that lived in coastal East Asia. The Austalalian/Papua population likely was once more widespread through out South/East Asia before being replaced. If you travel through Indonesia you can see that people look very different from island to island so it is a very unique region in terms of genetics, past and present. I think Ngandong is south/southeast Asia Denisovan.
    1
  2273. There are a few dated to 45000 years with 3% Neanderthal DNA but they aren't the ancestors of Europeans

  2274. It's very different. Morocco has flat face and small browridges while this has largest browridges of any skull ever found but both date to C 300kya

  2276. But according to Kayleigh, all humans come from Africa

  2292. A00 is older than A but not necessarily ancestral to that group. John Hawks suspects it is from archaic introgression.
    1
  2293.  @jasonborn867  The A00 haplogroup was described by Fernando Mendez and colleagues back in 2013 (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ajhg.2013.02.002). It is a Y chromosome branch that seems to diverge from the rest of the modern human Y chromosome tree between 240,000 and 580,000 years ago. It’s found today in some Mbo men from present-day Cameroon, and some African-American men. That’s very early compared to the rest of the Y chromosome tree. It is not very early compared to the autosomal genome, which shows that African populations started to become genetically differentiated around 300,000 years ago or so. There’s a suspicion that this haplogroup may have entered recent human populations by interbreeding with a more ancient, diverged branch of archaic humans. It’s possible. The story of African “archaic” humans today is intricate, because we have just enough data to raise questions and not enough data to answer those questions. The A00 haplogroup does not seem to mark that early diversification, because it isn’t present in Khoesan as far as we know. -jOHN HAWKS https://johnhawks.net/weblog/how-much-do-y-chromosome-haplogroups-shape-our-views-of-modern-human-origins/ Mendez and colleagues reported the identification of a Y chromosome haplotype (the A00 lineage) that lies at the basal position of the Y chromosome phylogenetic tree. Incorporating this haplotype, the authors estimated the time to the most recent common ancestor (TMRCA) for the Y tree to be 338 000 years ago (95% CI=237 000–581 000). Such an extraordinarily early estimate contradicts all previous estimates in the literature and is over a 100 000 years older than the earliest fossils of anatomically modern humans. This estimate raises two astonishing possibilities, either the novel Y chromosome was inherited after ancestral humans interbred with another species, or anatomically modern Homo sapiens emerged earlier than previously estimated and quickly became subdivided into genetically differentiated subpopulations. We demonstrate that the TMRCA estimate was reached through inadequate statistical and analytical methods, each of which contributed to its inflation. We show that the authors ignored previously inferred Y-specific rates of substitution, incorrectly derived the Y-specific substitution rate from autosomal mutation rates, and compared unequal lengths of the novel Y chromosome with the previously recognized basal lineage. Our analysis indicates that the A00 lineage was derived from all the other lineages 208 300 (95% CI=163 900–260 200) years ago. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4135414/

  2294. I was reading a study on blood types that said that 20% chance that Neanderthal hybrid would be a hemophiliac
    1
  2295. Especially the face and jaw. It looks like there are 2 large pieces of the jaw but the reconstruction was done based on "the desire to make a jaw with a more pronounced chin". They even admit they just made up what they wanted it to look like! There are no images that I can find of the pieces of the jaw separate from the reconstruction and nobody has even done any new analysis in over 30 years. Very suspect.

  2304. Yes, one theory is that they got the one from 220K when they lived in the Middle East but then migrated into Africa around 150,000 BP so didn't get the second batch. Geneticists confirmed they messed up when they assumed Africans had zero Neanderthal DNA. https://youtu.be/XqX72KvH15E?t=1344

  2341. I stated "Unequivocally modern" which means less than 80,000 years to most anthropologists. I am not talking about early modern or archaic Homo sapiens. The exact definition of what a fully modern human is something that even experts cannot decide on. Omo 1 is generally considered archaic Homo sapiens, and even older than Herto which is sometimes classified as 'Homo sapiens idaltu' due to large brow and other archaic features. However, Omo 1 reconstruction is highly dubious in my opinion. Omo 2 has very archaic traits. Skhul and Qafzeh are usually considered early modern humans or even Neanderthal hybrids because of large brows and jaws. Meanwhile, the skull from Laos is 100% modern looking but missing the jaw. There are no Homo sapiens skulls in Africa dating to between 120,000 and 40,000 years, unfortunately. None of these skulls has DNA recovered, so we don't know anything for sure.
    1
  2342.  @LuisAldamiz  Yes, I understand your points. Debate over the definition of which fossil remains represent modern humans is common among experts. I should have been more specific in that I was referring to 'Homo sapiens sapiens" often defined by their more gracile form. I didn't say humans originated in Asia, only that there are no Homo sapiens sapiens skulls found in Africa between 120,000 and 40,000 years ago. There are also many other skulls outside of Africa such as Apidima, Skhul, Qafzeh and some Homo sapiens teeth from China dated to c 100kya so there are many examples of Homo sapiens outside of Africa prior to 80kya https://www.britannica.com/topic/Homo-sapiens-sapiens

  2377. Why do you think Homo sapiens was too dumb to cross the Red Sea when they lived in Ethiopia for half a million years? I think that an East Africa/Arabia homeland for Homo sapiens is most likely given multiple interbreeding events with Neanderthals going back at least 200,000 years. There is also no evidence that the last common ancestor of Homo sapiens/Neanderthals/Denisovans lived in Africa. Geographically the most likely location would be south Eurasia/Middle East for the LCA. There was definitely a permanent H. sapiens population outside of Africa from 120,000 years ago (the last interglacial). Thinking of continents as "islands" where nobody ever comes and goes is over-simplification. We need to think in terms of geographic regions because there is much less barrier between Ethiopia and Arabia than there is between Ethiopia and West Africa, for example. Hominins didn't have maps to know that Africa existed as a landmass, so I don't think they stood there by the Red Sea and said we cannot go over there to the other side because we will stop evolving.
    1
  2378. ​ @dnifty1  Jebel Irhoud has a Homo sapiens-like face but Neanderthal like braincase. They call it "early Homo sapiens" but that is a stretch in my opinion. I think that many would not agree that Arabia is part of Europe. Also there is Apidima HS in Greece and Zuttiyah as well as other partial fossil in Levant/Near East which may be related to HS. I never say Africans and Eurasian are separate. In fact, I argue that HS has always been an Afro-Eurasian species since until recently the sea levels were much lower so Africa and Eurasia were technically a single mega-continent with no barriers to migration in or out. Even today north Africans are closer genetically to Middle East than to rest of Africa while Ethiopians are a mix

  2383. Bows and arrows are dated to 70kya in south Africa. Neanderthals never used them but they used spears for sure.
    1
  2384. It is still kind of a mystery where Cro Magnon came from, but probably Africa since they had not mixed with Neanderthals.
    1
  2385. Our pleasure!
    1
  2386. I think that's kind of insulting to suggest that they weren't smart enough to survive a little climate change
    1
  2387. Neanderthals were probably smarter than sapiens until around 100,000 years ago when a freak genetic mutation rewired our brains
    1
  2388. Or they liked us better

  2389. Welcome!
    1
  2390. This group Probably came from a north African population that did not intermix with Neanderthals which happened in the Middle East. It seems there wasn't much mixing in Europe. This also would account for why this group lacked the light skin gene. Migrated to Europe via Italian Peninsula at Low sea levels. Tool technology also links north Africa and Italy and Spain. There has always been a strong connection with Algeria/Morocco region to Italy and Spain
    1
  2391. Some had genes that could make blue eyes. Different ways to get blue eyes. Warm Neandertals maybe had little hair
    1
  2392. Which part?
    1
  2393. No, the script was written on a stone tablet and the images were all drawn with a brush made of feathers
    1
  2394. Denisovan is probably not a good term anyways
    1
  2395. 50% speculation
    1
  2396. The study I reference in the video says they were using bearskin but they probably did have a lot of body hair
    1
  2397. The entire video presents the idea we are the same species and not different. Look at a Neanderthal skull such as Amud 1 and tell me he couldn't pass for a modern human.
    1
  2398. Unidirectional shuttle dispersal
    1
  2399. Maybe it was their cannibalism and inbreeding which led to their Extinction

  2402. Amazing this one survived hidden in a well for 60 years
    1
  2403. We probably drove a lot of predators to Extinction like a sabertooth
    1
  2404. Well they say that we still have the gene but it's just not expressed so it could just be sexual selection but I think it's still kind of a mystery
    1
  2405. It's based on Neanderthal from a museum replica
    1
  2406. I wonder if they wiped out the European Jaguar as well
    1
  2407. One almost wiped out everyone 790k years ago during full reversal. Smaller shifts also had impacts but 42k and 790k were the biggest, also another 1.9m years ago

    1
  2411. Sexual Selection most likely was to blame Why wouldn't more animals on the African plains be naked if it was purely biological?

  2418. False narrative

  2419.  @TheBlackmanIsGod  900,000 years ago. https://www.newscientist.com/article/2150253-gene-study-shows-human-skin-tone-has-varied-for-900000-years/ The idea that any humans who lived a cold, dark environment for 500,000 years had "dark skin" goes against all biological rules. Humans did not evolve light skin 10,000 years ago. Humans have had all the genes for light and dark skin for 1 million years.
    1
  2420.  @TheBlackmanIsGod  If you consider Inuit to be dark skin than Italians are also dark skinned and therefore any description of dark skin should be taken to mean having a good tan. Europeans got light skin, blue eyes, red and blonde hair genes from Neanderthals. They lived in Europe for 500,000 years and evolved these traits. Genes don't evolve in 10,000 years. It takes 100,000s of thousands of years.

  2529. @ it is well established that Anthropologists/Archaeologists have been funded by CIA and USAID since the 1950's. In fact American and British scientists were kicked out of Ethiopia in 1982 because they were working for the CIA. Richard Leakey worked for British Intelligence in the 1950's in Kenya before going into Archaeology. Whether or not their work is biased because of this is not documented.

  2554. The idea that their brains had better visual processing is really cool. Maybe they were much better hunters/warriors with basic spears. Their skin and hair pigment were probably passed down to modern Europeans, that is why you don't see white people in northern Asia for example.

  2563. Well gorillas and chimps aren't hunting with sharp and Spears and using fire and competing directly with humans so I guess we let them live

  2585. You need to adjust your Saturation. There are no images darker than many Italians. There is no evidence Neanderthals had only 1 hair color or eye color. There has only been a handful of genomes completed so we cannot say for certain. Likey they had a gradient of skin tone similar to people in Western Eurasia today. They lived from Denmark to Iran to Siberia so they were not a homogenous group. They did not all look like Swedes. If you ever go to the beach and see old white people who spend a lot of time in the sun, they are very wrinkled.
    1
  2586. Yes!
    1
  2587. This is an interesting article on Out of Africa from 20 years ago. The original idea was "humans didn't become fully human until they were Out of Africa". I think that Sapiens initially split from Neanderthals/Denisovans somewhere in the Middle East and then went back to Africa around 300kya where they flourished, invented new technologies, and lost archaic habits before moving out again. https://www.nytimes.com/2002/02/26/science/when-humans-became-human

  2590. True that Dawson is a Forger, but he was not working alone. What do you think of the fact that Lankester discussed the difference between Human and Orangutan Molars in his book published a few months before Piltdown Man became public? https://archive.org/details/sciencefromeasyc00lankrich/page/n191/mode/2up?view=theater How do you reconcile that Dr. Underwood (a dentist) also wrote about Orang skulls in his 1903 book but failed to see the connection? Only Underwood would have the technical knowledge to remove the molars from the jaw, file them down and put them back into the jaw. Dawson had the knowledge to stain the jawbone and make it look ancient. So if Underwood is working with Dawson then it becomes a conspiracy.... https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=mdp.39015065972674&seq=7&q1=orang It is mystery who chose Dr Underwood to be a part of the Piltdown Team. Dawson certainly had a lot of sway in the Natural History Museum it seems, but I don't think he had enough pull to get Dr. Smith-Underwood and Dr Pycraft to blindly go along with the PIltdown Man without Lankester's support. Dr. Pycraft and Underwood wrote several papers and articles defending the PIltdown Man jaw... Lankester also wrote at least 6 newspaper articles supporting Piltdown Man in 1913 and devoted a chapter in his 1915 book to the subject where he stated that "now every Anatomist agrees with the reconstruction of the skull"...

  2596. If they got to Flores then they weren't far. There is also no fossil evidence of Denisovans but genetics prove they were there. Some ancient Aboriginal skulls have some very unusually archaic features but nobody will touch that subject. Virtually zero archaeological work has been done in Papua and giant landmass connecting Papua and Australia now underwater
    1
  2597. This is the reason that Humanoids are found in Wallacea but Orangutangs are not.

  2598. I hate he word "speculation" This implies a total lack of evidence. The word "hypothesis" is more accurate
    1
  2599. Geographically/culturally/genetically North Africa and the Middle East are much more closely linked than North Africa and Sub-Saharan Africa and probably has been the case going back before Sapiens evolved...

    1
  2607.  @Scifiape  Likely because the lower face/jaw is flat on Sapiens/Neanderthals' compared to early Hominins then the nose stuck out further rather then being wide and flat. This feature would have been present in the Last Common ancestor of Sapiens/Neanderthals' circa 500,000 year ago or more

  2625. That is how it is said in the halls of English academia.
    1
  2626. I think that the Iberian dates have been debunked. Much of the carbon dating prior to recently was contaminated by animal glue they used to preserve fossils 100 years ago...some have been re-dated but not all.
    1
  2627. There is only 3 complete Neanderthal genomes and 0 ancient Homo sapiens genome from fossils. Skull morphology and geographic location is still the most important criteria used for classification.
    1
  2628. Java Man!

  2629. Yeah I think they called the Stone Age because stone is the only thing that was preserved and even bone is not well preserved and that was probably used for all kinds of tools as well

  2664. Well Out of Africa was created after all the anthropologists were kicked out of Africa in the early 80s so they had to come up something so they would be allowed back
    1
  2665. I didn't mean it was "made up" as in not real, but made up based on the evidence at the time. Truth be told, many anthropologists at that time were working as spies and had racist ideas so there was reason for them to get kicked out of Africa. Out of Europe and the Cro-Magnon theory was just fairytales for sure. Originally the theory was that humans came from a Garden of Eden in Ethiopia, now Out of Africa is African Multi-regionalism but this ignores fossils from Greece and Israel, so shouldn't it be expanded to include fossils from beyond Africa in this multi-regional theory? I don't think we can say the the fossils from Greece and the Levant are just some wanderers. Florisbad and jebel irhoud are further from Ethiopia than the Levant/Greece. Also Florisbad dating is contested, it may be much younger according to John Hawks. I don't have enough knowledge of linguistics to comment and the genetics seems to get re-interpreted all the time, for example "Mitochondrial Eve".

  2680. Significant amounts of Neanderthal DNA have in fact been found in Africans. This was a mistake by geneticists who assumed there was no Neanderthal DNA and didn't even test for it until recently. https://www.princeton.edu/news/2020/01/30/new-study-identifies-neanderthal-ancestry-african-populations-and-describes-its Australian Aboriginals also have a large genetic diversity. Large genetic diversity does not mean more ancient, it just means that more genetic diversity has survived for a variety of factors. One factor could be that Ice Ages in Eurasia limited the gene pool. https://www.abc.net.au/news/science/2016-09-22/world-first-study-reveals-rich-history-of-aboriginal-australians/7858376

  2695. I think we only interbred with Neanderthal in the Middle East, while the only Neanderthals we have DNA for are from Europe. So there were several very distinct Neanderthal lineages, with the lineage from the Middle East being closest to us and the European Neanderthals being more genetically distant.
    1
  2696. We know that homo sapiens interbred with Neanderthals 200k years ago and the Neanderthals were not in Africa so there's also no reason to believe that Homimins from Asia either migrated to Africa or they met somewhere which that doesn't mean that the Out of Africa theory is false just means that there was gene flow. If you look at a map the distance from Ethiopia to Morocco and to South Africa it's thousands of miles so if we're going to believe the humans were migrating all over within Africa then there's no reason to think they were not migrating Out of Africa too since a little Sea is not going to be a huge barrier compared to jungles and deserts and we know there was other archaic humam species running around Africa until relatively recently so other humans would not be a barrier to migrating from China

    1
  2756. I didn't say we evolved from chimps ..it was about them being territorial and very likely ancient humans were very territorial

  2757. I grew up with Neander-Thal and never heard Neander-Tal until recently. It is like the saying about Tomato/Tomaato or Potato/Potaato...whatever you prefer
    1
  2758. Actually the southern Tropical Denisovans would likely be much more gracile than their Siberian relatives. I think the Solo Man skulls from Java probably are from this population and some older skulls from Australia

  2764. Much appreciated!

  2765. The point of the video was to debunk the theory, but I see what you are saying.

  2766. Homo sapiens for sure. Other species survived many, many ice ages and other environmental catastophes until we came along with our fancy brains!

  2768. Lots of Eurasian animals went extinct when modern humans arrived 40kya
    1
  2769. Yeah that's exactly the point that they make But the Georgian fossils that if they were in separate locations they would be the difference species but since they're all found together and the same age then it shows the the variability which is much more than today

  2770. Absorb the women

  2771. It would take at least 500,000 years to become separate species

  2776.  @jasonborn867  Genetic evidence of Denisovans from Papua is very convincing as well and if they made it that far there is no arguing they had boats.
    1
  2777. Well I didn't actually look at the bones I just read the scientific report

  2778. Greatest Heist in History!

  2782. Humans all had thicker skulls 50kya. Kow Swamp is a very controversial skull with an odd shape.
    1
  2783. I actually suggest there is doubt on the reconstruction and classification
    1
  2784. Ancestor maybe
    1
  2785. Never seen it
    1
  2786. True. I was speaking in long term timeline when I said , "Homo floresiensis, also known as Hobbits, survived until around 50,000 years ago. This was also suspiciously close to when modern humans arrived in the region."
    1
  2787. I think that is why this video is so popular
    1
  2788. In Africa and Australia they have used red ochre on the body forever. I think they knew more than think.
    1
  2789. Billions of years on Earth and we are they first intelligent beings so maybe we are unique
    1
  2790. I need to use that clip
    1
  2791. Awesome, thank you! There is not much research on that subject. If you have link to paper please post!
    1
  2792. I did a video on that. Neanderthal CSI
    1
  2793. True they're only talking about the lineage that contributed to us
    1
  2794. Light skin has been around 1 million years. Even some African such as the Khoesan have light skin.
    1
  2795.  @TheBlackmanIsGod  According to this article, "The latest findings suggest that some particularly dark skin tones evolved relatively recently from paler genetic variants." https://www.newscientist.com/article/2150253-gene-study-shows-human-skin-tone-has-varied-for-900000-years According to this study specific genes for blue eyes evolved 42kya and light skin gene in modern populations 22k-28kya https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/exd.14142

  2796. So if Neanderthals are a different species then it would technically not be cannibalism
    1
  2797. I am leaning towards Out of Arabia
    1
  2798. Bones can only be directly dated to 50000 years so they have to date sediments which can be unreliable in certain situations
    1
  2799. Denisovans are more Neanderthal than Neanderthals
    1
  2800. Mostly due to the climate and lack of caves is why this is the oldest human fossils

  2803. The Yoruba are thought to be the ancestors of modern humans outside of Africa, though Pygmy/Bushmen are the most ancient group. https://hereditasjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s41065-020-00163-9

  2804. Native Australian features have historically been compared to Neanderthals.
    1
  2805. Actually I think woke is being super sensitive to everything that contradicts with your viewpoint
    1
  2806. The study concludes there was an increase in mammal extinctions during pole reversals, not only megafauna. Lights didn't cause extinction, the radiation caused negative mutations in DNA. Homosapiens, being from closer the equator had genes that protected better against UV radiation, while Neanderthal had less protection because they were form the north. Their may have been in decline by then due to competition and inbreeding and weakened before the pole reversal.

  2809. They were hunting seals, afterall.

  2810. Trade Female for Female only, not for goods. Interglacial 130kya has many anomalies. Maybe Apidima is source of Sapiens Y chromosome in Neanderthals
    1
  2811. Thanks! Glad to have you aboard.

  2812. Probably Aliens genetically altered our genes to make us smarter, but not smart enough to not notice we are being harvested.
    1
  2813. The lineage from Oceana is said to be as distinct from Denisovans as it is from Neanderthals so therefore it should actually be a different subspecies... much of the separation was probably due to Extreme Ice Ages that we have not had recently
    1
  2814. 'Multiple Deeply Divergent Denisovan Ancestries in Papuans' published in 2019 seems to suggest the Flores Island archaic introgression is what they call 'D2' and it is more widespread than just Flores. So basically there is an Altai Denisovan, Southeast Asian Denisovan and Papua Denisovan.. https://www.cell.com/cms/attachment/8b3d576e-75da-4952-bd0c-eaeb0c3a8269/fx1.jpg
    1
  2815. Geographically this would suggest that Java Man gave rise to D2 Denisovans, with D0 splitting off to Siberia and D1 splitting of in Papua. The later Solo Man fossils are likely the D2 Denisovans...
    1
  2816. True there are some steroid users who would match them. The issue with the name is a lack of agreement on what fossils belong to this group. In the past Western Anthropologists lumped everything in Asia into "Homo erectus" to dismiss the fact there were fossils with modern traits in Asia because it challenges the Out of Africa narratives. Chinese don't want to use a Russian name for a a guy named "Denis" and instead use Homo longi or Dragon Man.

  2817. Funny, when I pronounce it that way others say that is incorrect :)

  2820. This is one of the best studies IMO on Asian fossils. Many anthropologists don't agree that Jebel irhoud should be classified as H. Sapiens just because of the modern looking face. The brain is large but looks like a Neandethal. PS I just noticed that many comments were being blocked so I changed settings to allow all comments, which should get interesting https://www.cell.com/the-innovation/fulltext/S2666-6758(21)00055-2

  2821. Interesting questions by Lee Berger here. Did H. sapiens really make many of the artifacts in S. Africa or did H. naledi? https://youtu.be/Y7Q3EGYI78M?t=1015

  2822. John Hawks questions dating of Florisbad skull https://osf.io/preprints/africarxiv/eqs7d/ "The current data do not demonstrate the presence of H. sapiens in southern Africa at ~260 ka."
    1
  2823. Lee Berger, whose team recently discovered the 300,000 year-old Homo naledi, an archaic-looking human relative, near the Cradle of Humankind World Heritage site outside Johannesburg, said dating the Jebel Irhoud bones was thrilling, but is unconvinced that modern humans lived all over Africa so long ago. “They’ve taken two data points and not drawn a line between them, but a giant map of Africa,” he said. https://www.theguardian.com/science/2017/jun/07/oldest-homo-sapiens-bones-ever-found-shake-foundations-of-the-human-story

  2825. There's evidence of Homo erectus in Java 1.6 million years ago and I think that the most likely place humans could have survived and thrived would have been in Sundaland rather than in Africa during the extreme ice ages which caused drought across Africa and then they would have spread back to Africa
    1
  2826. I said fully modern. Jebel Irhoud species is debatable. They call it "early Homo sapiens"

  2827. Yes
