Archaic humans include the Neanderthals, a group descended from Homo ergaster, Homo erectus and Homo heidelbergensis.
Descendants of the archaic humans include Homo sapiens, the only group that is considered modern humans.
Modern humans evolved in Africa and then replaced archaic humans in Asia and Europe.
This model, known as the replacement model is one explanation for the much debated evolution of older Homo species.
This model is supported by the fossil record and DNA data.
Complete the following statements about the replacement model, which is used to explain the disappearance of...
Until recently, there were two competing theories about the origin of our species- "modern Homo sapiens". The first (single African origin) is that all modern humans descended from a recent ancestor in Africa, less than 200,000 years ago, and that our ancestors replaced the archaic human species they found in their migrations, including Neanderthals and Denisovans. (In the last few years evidence from nuclear genomes of fossil humans has indicated that there was limited interbreeding between the ancestors of modern...
