Skull found in China could re-write 'out of Africa' theory of human evolution
The beginning of modern humans could be a far more complex, spread out thing than we ever thought before

A skull found in China could re-write our entire understanding of human evolution.
That's according to scientists who have examined the important, ancient head and say that it proves the existing theory of how humans came to be is wrong.
Most anthropologists believe that our species came about in Africa around 200,000 years ago – and that one group left around 80,000 years later before spreading across the world. But instead of humans purely coming out of Africa, the new research suggests that important characteristics of humans actually developed in east Asia.
