Document Summary
Oldest known art: cave paintings in spain, approx. 1-4% shared dna for european and asian populations. Croatia: non-african modern humans share 1-4% of dna with neanderthals, 2006-2013 dna from femurs of neanderthals buried in vindija cave, Replacement model/out of africa: modern humans evolve and disperse throughout africa ~ 200,000 ya, ~ 50,000 ya - one african population migrated to eurasia and europe, replaced local populations (no gene flow) Multi-regional model: h. erectus disperses early from africa, ~1. 25 mya, populations linked by gene flow, single hominid species since then, modern populations arose from ancient, local lineages, early modern homo sapiens. Clinical replacement/hybridization and assimilation model: modern humans originated in africa, when populations increased, expanded out of africa into other areas of the. Old world: gene flow occurred between emigrating africans and resident premodern populations (i. e. neanderthals), floresiensis, 2004, nicknamed the hobbit lb1 from indonesian island of flores, 1 metre tall; 380 cc cranial capacity, about 17,000 years old, https://www. scientificamerican. com/video/how-hobbits-happened-the- evolution-of-homo-floresiensis1/
