The evolution of kind HOMO mainly took place in Africa. The first left Africa and populated Eurasia HOMO ERECTUS, migration of which began about 2 million years ago.

People of modern type came out in the middle East 70 thousand years ago. Hence the people went first to the East and about 50 thousand years ago occupied South Asia, reaching Australia 40 thousand years ago.

Today all serious scientific community adheres to the theory of the African descent rights, according to which HOMO SAPIENS appeared on the South-East Africa 200 thousand years ago and was settled from there throughout the planet.

America was first populated by the descendants of a small group of peo ple who have infiltrated from Asia through Alaska. Dates of their penetration remains unclear, but estimates suggest the last ice age, when sea level was lower than today and was connected Siberia with Alaska landmasses

It is believed that in Europe Homo sapiens came from Central Asia and not earlier than 45 thousand years ago in the Middle East, and its development has taken no less than 15 years.
