Human Evolution History

Humans trod the landscape of North America thousands of years earlier than previously thought, according to new research that confirms antiquity of fossilized footprints at White Sands National Park in New Mexico using two further dating approaches.

The scientists found that some of the newly-discovered genes can be tracked all the way back to the earliest days of mammals.

This was the first time that deep learning was used successfully to explain human history.

The video shows how technology is taking over, and turns humans first into cyborgs and later into robots.

A troublesome thigh bone might trip up the timeline of human evolution. According to research published recently in PLOS ONE, a femur found in Southwest China could mean that a species of early human -- one from a lineage other than the one that resulted in humans alive today -- survived as recently as 14,000 years ago.

The fossilised bones of 15 bodies from a previously unknown human species have been discovered in a cave in South Africa, it was announced today, in what scientists hailed as a breakthrough in evolution research.
