The skull found in China can rewrite human history

Scientists' new findings from a Chinese skull may counter the theory of human history.

According to Independent, most anthropologists think that humans originated in Africa, about 200,000 years ago. The first group left Africa to other parts of the world after 80,000 years.

Dali skull is dated 260,000 years ago.

But instead of mankind that originated only in Africa, the new study indicates the possibility of another ethnic group forming in East Asia.

The joint research team between Texas A&M University (USA) and the Chinese Academy of Sciences recently published a detailed study, dating the famous Dali skull that has been excavated in China. 40 years ago.

Specifically, the team identified the lifespan of the Chinese skull up to 260,000 years , which is older than what was discovered in Africa for 60,000 years. It is also the skull of a person .

Researchers were surprised and proud to have the opportunity to sketch the face and skull of a person who lived 260,000 years ago.

The new hypothesis suggests that China is also the place where human ancestors form.

In the past, the human hypothesis that emerged from China was often rejected because it could only serve to raise the importance of China. But new research may prove this hypothesis to be true.

However, this cannot prove that humans first appeared in China instead of Africa. Homo erectus can be present in two or more places on Earth. Modern humans are most likely a blend of DNA between two ancient strains of humans in Asia and Africa, instead of the unique origin, said Xinzhi Wu, an expert from the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Scientists say they will continue the research project by comparing the details of the Agent's skull with other skulls and bones excavated in Africa. Since then, researchers have been able to determine how people exist in China to influence the formation and development of modern people.
