Early modern human expansion in sub-Saharan Africa appears to have contributed to the end of late Acheulean industries at about 130,000 years ago, although very late coexistence of archaic and early modern humans, until as late as 12,000 years ago, has been argued for West Africa in particular.

Human history is the record of humankind from prehistory to the present. Modern humans evolved in Africa around 300,000 years ago and initially lived as hunter-gatherers.They migrated out of Africa during the Last Ice Age and had spread across Earth's continental land except Antarctica by the end of the Ice Age 12,000 years ago.
The population of Madagascar seems to have derived in equal measures from Borneo and East Africa. [97] Atlantic / Northern Europe: Faroe Islands: 1,500 BP: Agricultural remains from three locations were analysed and dated to as early as the sixth century CE [98] Indian Ocean / East Africa: Comoros: 1,450 BP
Studies show that the pre-modern migration of human populations begins with the movement of Homo erectus out of Africa across Eurasia about 1.75 million years ago. Homo sapiens appeared to have occupied all of Africa about 150,000 years ago; some members of this species moved out of Africa 70,000 years ago (or, according to more recent studies, as early as 125,000 years ago into Asia, [1] [2 ...
The fossil record shows Homo sapiens (also known as "modern humans" or "anatomically modern humans") living in Africa by about 350,000–260,000 years ago. The earliest known Homo sapiens fossils include the Jebel Irhoud remains from Morocco ( c. 315,000 years ago ), [ 29 ] the Florisbad Skull from South Africa ( c. 259,000 years ago ), and the ...

However, human fossils have not been found from this period, and nothing is known of the ethnicity of these early humans in India. [7] Recent research also by Macauly et al. (2005) [who?] [8] and Posth et al. (2016), [9] also argue for a post-Toba dispersal. [8] Early Stone Age hominin fossils have been found in the Narmada valley of Madhya ...
