- first people in Europe: 700.000 - 8.000 BC. Before 700 000 B.C. Homo sapiens resided solely in Africa as did Australopithecus afarensis, the precursor of Homo erectus, which appeared there around 3.3 million years ago. The well-known complete skeleton nicknamed Lucy is an example of Australopithecus afarensis.

Sub-Saharan Africa The first hominids to leave Africa, over 1.5 million years ago, first entered the Levant before spreading into what is now Europe and Asia. About 100,000 years ago another African exodus, this time of anatomically modern humans, colonised the Levant before expanding into Eurasia.

- All people today are classified as Homo sapiens. Our species of humans first began to evolve nearly 200,000 years ago in association with technologies not unlike those of the early Neandertals.It is now clear that early Homo sapiens, or modern humans, did not come after the Neandertals but were their contemporaries.he first fossils of early modern humans to be identified were found in 1868 at the 27,000-23,000 year old Cro-Magnon rock shelter site near the village of Les Eyzies in southwestern France.

Early human migrations Early human migrations and expansions of archaic and modern humans across continents began 2 million years ago with the migration out of Africa of Homo erectus. This was followed by the migrations of other pre-modern humans including H. heidelbergensis, the likely ancestor of both modern humans and Neanderthals. reconstruction of Homo erectus. Anthropologists believe that H. erectus was the first hominid to control fire (reconstruction shown in Westfaelisches Westfälisches, Landesmuseum, Herne, germany in a 2006). exhibition

Human Evolution The fossils of these early hominids, which lived 2 to 6 million years ago, all come from that continent. Most scientists believe early humans migrated out of Africa into Asia between 2 million and 1.7 million years ago, entering Europe some time within the past 1 million years.omo sapiens. Scientists have dated the oldest known fossils with skeletal features typical of modern humans from 195,000 years ago. Early anatomically modern Homo sapiens fossils have come from sites in Sudan, Ethiopia, South Africa, and Israel.

- The first fossils of early modern humans to be identified were found in 1868 at the 27,000-23,000 year old Cro-Magnon rock shelter site near the village of Les Eyzies in southwestern France. They were subsequently named the Cro-Magnon people. They were very similar in appearance to modern Europeans.

New human-like species discovered in S Africa Homo sapiens (200,000 years-present) Modern humans evolved in Africa from a predecessor species known as Homo heidelbergensis. A small group of Homo sapiens left Africa 60,000 years ago and settled the rest of the world, replacing the other human species they encountered (with a small amount of interbreeding).

Settlement Patterns The first evidence of humans in Italy was approximetly 100, 000 years ago. But these humans were not homo sapiens sapiens such as modern human beings. The people occupying Italy at the time were a less advanced form of humans called home erectus. These humans were thought to have live fairly close to were Rome was first established. Flint axes were found at a site caled Torrimpietra that is to the west of Rome (kidipede).

- The First Americans. Whether on land, along Bering Sea coasts or across seasonal ice, humans crossed Beringia from Asia to enter North America about 13,000 or more years ago. Humans were latecomers to this magnificent land mass so widely separated from other continents by vast oceans except near Earth's poles.

Did first humans emerge from Middle East, not Africa? Until now, researchers believed that homo sapiens, the direct descendants of modern man, evolved in Africa about 200,000 years ago and gradually migrated north, through the Middle East, to Europe and Asia.ther scientists have argued that human beings originated in Africa before moving to other regions 150,000 to 200,000 years ago. Homo sapiens discovered in Middle Awash, Ethiopia, from 160,000 years ago were believed to be the oldest 'modern' human beings.

Europeâs first humans: what scientists do and donât know Over the past two years, breakthroughs in ancient genomics and archaeology have revolutionized the story of the first humans in Europe — who are thought to have appeared some 45,000 years ago — and their relationship with the Neanderthals, who vanished from the region some 5,000 years afterwards.

- A map of early human migrations. Homo sapiens seem to have appeared in East Africa around 200,000 years ago. The oldest individuals found left their marks in the Omo remains (195,000 years ago) and the Homo sapiens idaltu (160,000 years ago), that was found at the Middle Awash site in Ethiopia.he expansion of modern human population is thought to have begun 45,000 years ago, and may have taken 15,000-20,000 years for Europe to be colonized. During this time the Neanderthals were slowly being displaced.

Leaving home - 2 million years ago Leaving home - 2 million years ago By two million years ago, a new species of Homo appeared - the first species we would truly recognise as human. Homo ergaster evolved during an accelerated period of global cooling and drying that cleared more and more tropical rainforest from Africa and created a desert in the northern half of the continent.

Europeans drawn from three ancient 'tribes' The findings are based on analysis of genomes from nine ancient Europeans. Agriculture originated in the Near East - in modern Syria, Iraq and Israel - before expanding into Europe around 7,500 years ago. Multiple lines of evidence suggested this new way of life was spread by a wave of migrants, who interbred with the indigenous European hunter-gatherers they encountered on the way.

When Did Humans First Appear on Earth? When did humans first appear on Earth? A: There is evidence to suggest that archaic humans, of which modern humans are descended, were present as long as 195,000 years ago in what is now Ethiopia, as fossils recovered from the region show the beginnings of skull changes that evolved into the modern human skull.

The First Europeans The first Europeans to arrive in North America -- at least the first for whom there is solid evidence -- were Norse, traveling west from Greenland, where Erik the Red had founded a settlement around the year 985. In 1001 his son Leif is thought to have explored the northeast coast of what is now Canada and spent at least one winter there.

When Humans Became Human The first human ancestors appeared between five million and seven million years ago, probably when some apelike creatures in Africa began to walk habitually on two legs. They were flaking crude stone tools by 2.5 million years ago.

When did modern humans first appear, and what's the name of the time period they originated in? All people today are classified as Homo sapiens. Our species of humans first began to evolve nearly 200,000 years ago in association with technologies not unlike those of the early Neandertals.It is now clear that early Homo sapiens, or modern humans, did not come after the Neandertals but were their contemporaries.o far, the earliest finds of modern Homo sapiens skeletons come from Africa. They date to nearly 200,000 years ago on that continent. They appear in Southwest Asia around 100,000 years ago and elsewhere in the Old World by 60,000-40,000 years ago.

Origins of Modern Humans: Multiregional or Out of Africa? Shortly after fully modern humans entered Europe, roughly 40,000 years ago, the Neanderthals began a fairly rapid decline, culminating in their disappearance roughly 30,000 years ago. Neanderthals were apparently no match for the technologically advanced fully modern humans who invaded Europe and evidence for interbreeding of these two types of hominids is equivocal. Genetic evidence

- Archaeological evidence indicates that by 7,000 B.C. Neolithic farmers had moved into Europe. They introduced their ideas and genes to Palaeolithic people, who had migrated into the continent 30,000 to 40,000 years before. The transportation methods and travel routes the Neolithic used have long been questioned.
