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.

India: 385–250: South India: Quartzite tools excavated at Attirampakkam were dated back to 250,000-385,000 years old. [4] Africa, Horn of Africa: Ethiopia: 200–190: Omo Kibish Formation: The Omo remains of modern humans found in 1967 near the Ethiopian Kibish Mountains, dated stratigraphically to 195 ± 5 ka, may be related to Ledi-Geraru ...
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 ...
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.
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 ...
"Recent African origin", or Out of Africa II, refers to the migration of anatomically modern humans (Homo sapiens) out of Africa after their emergence at c. 300,000 to 200,000 years ago, in contrast to "Out of Africa I", which refers to the migration of archaic humans from Africa to Eurasia from before 1.8 and up to 0.5 million years ago.
Early humans navigated along river channels while on their way to Eurasia, it’s been claimed Scientific breakthrough confirms how early man left Africa 84,000 years ago Skip to main content
Metalworking in West Africa has been dated as early as 2,500 BC at Egaro west of the Termit in Niger, and iron working was practiced there by 1,500 BC. [70] Iron smelting has been dated to 2,000 BC in southeast Nigeria. [71] Central Africa provides possible evidence of iron working as early as the 3rd millennium BC. [72]
