The first modern humans to arrive in Europe and Asia migrated north out of Egypt around 55,000 years ago, according to new genetic research.
The study has answered a long standing question about the route early Homo sapiens took when spreading from the African continent.
It shows most Europeans and Asians living today are more closely related genetically to people living in Egypt than in Ethiopia.
The first modern humans to leave Africa and spread into Asia and Europe appear to have taken a northern route out of the continent by crossing the Sinai peninsula according to new genetic research. A reconstruction of one of those first humans to arrive in Europe is shown above from the two part TV series Neanderthal

This suggests Egypt was the last stop for people migrating out of Africa 55,000 years ago rather than taking a more southerly route through Ethiopia.
Some scientists believed that humans may have travelled from Ethiopia across the Bab el Mandeb strait to the Arabian Peninsula.
And the study suggests that the spread of modern populations across Europe occurred much later than had originally been thought.

Definitely a new take on this subject....

Who did this research? What was the name of the study and what are the facts not the stories made up by the so called researchers?
King Tut was a descendant of early Europeans. He was even said to be Irish. How do I decide if an english publication is valid of just trying to sell copy?

They wanted to go to France to enjoy some fine wine and cheese and catch some rays.

The first modern humans to arrive in Europe and Asia migrated north out of Egypt around 55,000 years agoWas this before or after the introduction of Neanderthal DNA?

The first modern humans to leave Africa had to learn to walk like an Egyptian in order to do so.
