Meaning that we didn't all originate from Africa?

2018-03-14 22:45:37 UTC  

That is different, although as of last year, a hominid jawbone, a human jaw, was found in Greece

2018-03-14 22:45:45 UTC  

making it the oldest human remains ever found.

2018-03-14 22:45:55 UTC  

Thus bringing into question the "out of Africa" theory.

2018-03-14 22:46:24 UTC  

We are still greatly unsure of the repercussion of such a thing.

2018-03-14 22:47:44 UTC  

Interesting, I'll look into that. From what I know of anthropology the "out of Africa" theory still makes sense but thats the first Ive heard that Europeans came from the Caucus region

2018-03-14 22:48:08 UTC  

Oh that is just modern Europeans. This can be suported by out of Africa still though.

2018-03-14 22:48:28 UTC  

This occurrence only happened about 10,000-ish years ago.

2018-03-14 22:49:49 UTC  

Oh ok I was thinking the theory said that we were basically a completely different people

2018-03-14 22:50:18 UTC  

That may actually also be true.

2018-03-14 22:50:28 UTC  

With the discovery of that jaw I was talking about.

2018-03-14 22:50:31 UTC  

We're still not sure though.

2018-03-14 22:50:53 UTC  

But Indo-European is definitely a real thing.

2018-03-14 22:52:50 UTC  

Where did agriculture develop? Was it in Egypt or did it start farther east?

2018-03-14 22:53:05 UTC  

Not including East Asia

2018-03-14 22:53:18 UTC  

Agriculture developed in multiple regions at once according to archaeological forensic evidence.

2018-03-14 22:53:29 UTC  

One of these was in and around Peru

2018-03-14 22:53:33 UTC  

by the Incans

2018-03-14 22:53:41 UTC  

Another was in Anatolia.

2018-03-14 22:53:54 UTC  

I also believe in between the Tigris and Euphrates.

2018-03-14 22:54:20 UTC  

Gotta brush up on the early history folks

2018-03-14 22:54:37 UTC  

I can understand where it gets dull for some people.

2018-03-14 22:54:45 UTC  

Like dark age history always depressed me,

2018-03-14 22:54:51 UTC  

mostly because of all the premature death.

2018-03-14 23:00:20 UTC  

fellas

2018-03-14 23:00:26 UTC  

union or confederate

2018-03-14 23:00:36 UTC  

Confederate.

2018-03-14 23:00:49 UTC  

"North Texas" stupid question

2018-03-14 23:01:21 UTC  

The earliest ancestor that I can directly trace though was a Union lieutenant from Conneticut.

2018-03-14 23:03:33 UTC  

Why do you side with the confederacy?

2018-03-14 23:04:37 UTC  

Well because my direct paternal line I believe has been here since about the first colony. And for at least four generations my father's line has been in Texas.

2018-03-14 23:04:44 UTC  

But I've got family from everywhere.

2018-03-14 23:04:58 UTC  

many southern states actually have a black majority population

2018-03-14 23:05:03 UTC  

And I side with the confederacy because they sought preservation above all else.

2018-03-14 23:05:32 UTC  

Louisiana was 80% black after the civil war

2018-03-14 23:06:01 UTC  

after the slavery was abolished, yankees migrante to the south to settle

2018-03-14 23:06:15 UTC  

"Carpetbaggers"

2018-03-14 23:06:22 UTC  

opportunists looking for cheap investment.
