Is it really dramatic? Then just put it in the main feed.
Is it chuddy? (Be honest.) Then /h/chudrama.
Is it from back in old boomer times or before?
This is the place for it.
Feel free to talk about history here at
whatever level of seriousness you feel like.

Its kinda true. Kinda fake.
When they say out of africa. It implies depth of africa.
When in reality it was coast of mediterance as we know nowdays. Why nowdays? Becouse mediterance wasnt sea back then. It was big lake. And big portions of it were land. There was land bridge between sicily and africa.
In these now underwater regions is where first humans came to be. Then filling of mediterance happened. It took from few months to two years. Atlantic ocean just poured in one day. People had to escape sea. They spread around the region. Thats why creta and other islands of east mediterance have one of oldest archaeological evidencese of humans. They were highlands.
Here is where split happened. Some ended up in fretile crecent and thrived. Some ended in africa. Mates with monkeys and became bipocs.

Its debatable.
The oldest splits still within the genome of modern humans are Neanderthals in Eurasians and Denosivans in East asians and Papuans (Reich 58-59) and a ghost population within West africans(Reich 213). There's a plausable alternative theory that the ancestors of modern day humans, denosivans and neanderthals originated in eurasia and our branch migrated back into africa and then came back to BBC the neanderkubs(Reich 69).

I mean they had to come outta somewhere, maybe in 50 years it'll be the out of Bosnia theory or something but East Africa is what we have the most evidence for.
