Most people are now familiar with the traditional "Out of Africa" model: modern humans evolved in Africa and then dispersed across Asia and reached Australia in a single wave about 60,000 years ago.

I am fascinated with this stuff. Interdisciplinary.

Has similarities to "learning" in the 1960s, that Vikings had been to Newfoundland in approx. 1,000 AD, long before Chirst. Columbus.
