  1.  @BodhiPolitic  South America was populated more than 12k years ago. First Polynesian migrations started much later, 5000 or even less years ago

  2. It will not if humans everywhere drop fertility rate to 2 or less

  3. Duh from our ancient common ancestors who lived in Africa. Modern Africans have no specific claim to common ancestors of ALL humans

  4. Actually dating like that in South America were called into question, since not the remains themselves were dated, but nearby carbon from ashes Also just because they looked more like modern Africans and Aboriginals, does not mean they were more related to them than to Native Americans. At first people in Americas may have retained features of their ancestors, later evolving other features. Kinda like in Europe ancestors of modern Europeans were still dark skinned until 8k years ago, and after transition to plant diet natural selection gave rise to light skin

  5. Very recently. Like very light skin in Eu ope evolved less than 8k years ago

  6.  @iqbalmuhammad2920  which happened much later. Polynesians started their journeys only 5k or so years ago. While Americas were populated more than 12-13 k years ago

  7.  @fredanderson5544  youtube is full of pseudoscience, looking at videos is not research. Read some peer-reviewed scientific journals for once

  8. Only that the biggest genetic differences are found all within one "race" - Sub-Saharan Africans, some of them are more different from each other than all of non Africans from each other

  9. Antarctica was found by Russians. Here, just gave you the reason my country should annex that continent lol

  10. And how do they know it? Myths do not count as evidence

  11.  @magnusorn7313  they walked not on ice, but between ice sheets

  12. "Life" evolved in the water. 3-4 billion years ago

  13. Those are questionable datings. As I remember, not the remains themselves were dated but nearby ash

  14. 800k years ago they split and 50-40k years ago they meet again

  15. There are 6 continents. Eurasia is one continent as evident by the map. Actually Antarctic was discovered in 19th century, but only by the 20th century people first started to live there at least for a time, mostly at whaling stations on islands

  16. Which one? In SA, as I know, mostly species of Homo other than Homo sapiens are found

  17.  @Danquebec01  Europeans and Africans since 16-17 century. And also some Asians

  18. No, there are no Semites. Although there is a weird group of Natives with R1b Y chromosome haplogroup (which is usually found only in Indo-European people), and scientists are still not sure whether it comes from recent admixture or from earlier time

  19. Not to say about miniscule difference between Asian and European
    1
  20. Yes it was

  21. You can move there permanently if you want so much

  22. There is actually a hypothesis that first route from Beringia to more southern parts was made by boats parallel to the shore

  23. Hm, nowadays there are people of maximum 2.5% Neanderthal ancestry. And modern Africans mostly never went out of Africa. Ancestors of modern Eurasians interacted with Neanderthals.
