  2. Chimpanzee–human last common ancestor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chimpanzeehuman_last...

    The earliest fossils clearly in the human but not the chimpanzee lineage appear between about 4.5 to 4 million years ago, with Australopithecus anamensis. Few fossil specimens on the "chimpanzee-side" of the split have been found; the first fossil chimpanzee, dating between 545 and 284 kyr (thousand years, radiometric ), was discovered in Kenya ...

  3. Early expansions of hominins out of Africa - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Early_expansions_of...

    The delineation of the "human" genus, Homo, from Australopithecus is somewhat contentious, for which reason the superordinate term "hominin" is often used to include both. "Hominin" technically includes chimpanzees as well as pre-human species as old as 10 million years old (the separation of Homininae into Hominini and Gorillini).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_human_evolution

    The last common ancestor between humans and other apes possibly had a similar method of locomotion. 12-8 Ma The clade currently represented by humans and the genus Pan (chimpanzees and bonobos) splits from the ancestors of the gorillas between c. 12 to 8 Ma. [31] 8-6 Ma Sahelanthropus tchadensis

  5. Human evolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_evolution

    A new comparison of the human and chimpanzee genomes suggests that after the two lineages separated, they may have begun interbreeding... A principal finding is that the X chromosomes of humans and chimpanzees appear to have diverged about 1.2 million years more recently than the other chromosomes. The research suggests:

  6. Recent African origin of modern humans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recent_African_origin_of...

    Homo sapiens (red) Expansion of early modern humans from Africa through the Near East. In paleoanthropology, the recent African origin of modern humans or the "Out of Africa" theory (OOA) [a] is the most widely accepted [1] [2] [3] model of the geographic origin and early migration of anatomically modern humans (Homo sapiens).

  7. When did Neanderthals interbreed with ancient humans ... - AOL

    The Neanderthal DNA found in modern human genomes has long raised questions about ancient interbreeding. New studies offer a timeline of when that occurred and when ancient humans left Africa.

  8. Early human migrations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Early_human_migrations

    [note 1] The recent African origin paradigm suggests that the anatomically modern humans outside of Africa descend from a population of Homo sapiens migrating from East Africa roughly 70–50,000 years ago and spreading along the southern coast of Asia and to Oceania by about 50,000 years ago. Modern humans spread across Europe about 40,000 ...

  9. Multiregional origin of modern humans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiregional_origin_of...

    The finding that "Mitochondrial Eve" was relatively recent and African seemed to give the upper hand to the proponents of the Out of Africa hypothesis.But in 2002, Alan Templeton published a genetic analysis involving other loci in the genome as well, and this showed that some variants that are present in modern populations existed already in Asia hundreds of thousands of years ago.
