Human evolution, or anthropogenesis, is the origin and evolution of Homo sapiens as a distinct species from other hominids, great apes and placental mammals. The study of human evolution encompasses many scientific disciplines, including physical anthropology, primatology, archaeology, linguistics and genetics.[1]

The term "human" in the context of human evolution refers to the genus Homo, but studies of human evolution usually include other hominids, such as the Australopithecines, from which the genus Homo had diverged by about 2.3 to 2.4 million years ago in Africa.[2][3] Scientists have estimated that humans branched off from their common ancestor with chimpanzees - the only other living hominins - about 57 million years ago. Several species of Homo evolved and are now extinct. These include Homo erectus, which inhabited Asia, and Homo neanderthalensis, which inhabited Europe. Archaic Homo sapiens evolved between 400,000 and 250,000 years ago.

The dominant view among scientists concerning the origin of anatomically modern humans is the "Out of Africa" or recent African origin hypothesis,[4][5][6][7] which argues that H. sapiens arose in Africa and migrated out of the continent around 50,000 to 100,000 years ago, replacing populations of H. erectus in Asia and H. neanderthalensis in Europe. Scientists supporting the alternative multiregional hypothesis argue that H. sapiens evolved as geographically separate but interbreeding populations stemming from a worldwide migration of H. erectus out of Africa nearly 2.5 million years ago.

  • "Out of Asia" for me..

  • 09:00 - ah but it does go back to "a smoke filled room" "conspiracy theory" - the illuminati only want the public to know certain things, and they keep knowledge hidden from the general public. We are kept in the dark so that we will not know our true selves, and so they can control us - control what we think, control what we do, and ultimately with the NWO, control us TOTALLY. If they do not like you, they will turn off your chip and you will perish.

  • The thing is the video does not 'investigate these claims it 'as the narrator says, but allows those who believe these claims to spout out their views without testing them by hearing another point of view, or even asking them meaningful questions.

  • Thanks for uploading :)

  • am going watch it all its cool but old

  • @ 1:25 that footprint is nothing like a modern human foot print, the toes are too long and they are spayed the foot is a triangle shape and it's curved too without an instep. But it's a dead ringer for a Sasquatch print..HAHAHA!!!
