Eventually they will figure out what we can already surmise from statistics, that there are multiple human species currently living on this planet.
in before the middle finger
More nonsense that will either be shown as a good-faith mistake or fraud. The earth is a go-zillion years old. But man as best confirmed by the age of recorded history, has been around no longer than about 6000 years.

“human finger points to”
I see what you did there.
Can’t be true. This was “settled science”.
So we’re all “African-Americans”.
Where’s my Reparations?
Someday, some discovery outside of Africa and the Levant will turn up human remains much older than any ever found in African and the Levant, and it start the chicken vs egg question - was human migration at the FURTHEST reaches back, out of, or INTO Africa and the Levant.
Who ever said there was only 1 exodus/migration out of Africa?
We know for a fact the entire human race nearly died out, at one point pinching to maybe more more than 10,000 individuals.
The out of Africa theory only proves that all currently living humans are descendants of a common ancestry that exited Africa at a particular time... it doesn’t say Humans never left Africa prior, only that if they did, none of those lineages survived to current day.
My guess, there were likely multiple migrations out of Africa prior to the one that finally “stuck”.
They found the finger next to an iPhone. Even then they couldn’t get that damn thing to open using a Finger.
The guy probably died waiting for the latest IOS Update to fix the problem.
Humans have been around for 2 million years. Leave it to Newsweak to get confused.
Out of Africa is a myth that portrays people as one homogeneous kind.
The Out of Africa story is falling apart, at least in the sense that it has recently been understood.
Secular scientists want nothing to do with the Biblical account of Creation; for them, the best they’ve come up with here of late is here and there admitting that “intelligent design” may be at work. However, they still hold to the absolute fallacy of evolution like a piece of sunken ship and that the earth is millions and the universe billions of years old.
If that were true, the planets in our Solar System would have flung from their orbits, long frozen and dead along with Earth in the absence of the sun from having gone supernova. Galaxies that old would have vastly degraded structure, some swallowed by their own central black holes, our Milky Way included.
Holding to the Biblical account of Creation—Almighty God being that Creator, creation research scientists have calculated, as well as some secular scientists, that the Earth is likely 6,000 to 7,000 years old, and according to the Word as told in the Book of Revelation will exist an additional 1,000 years before God destroys it with fire and creates a new Heaven and Earth.
Our universe, our galaxy, our Earth, the Solar System, the stars of the heavens and all other space-related phenomena “declare His Glory.”
Holding to the Word of God, entering into evidence a “fossilized modern human finger” found at the Al Wusta excavation site, the bone structure would be only several thousand years old, possibly younger with testing.
When I first began studying archaeology and anthropology, the ‘experts’ stated that humans arrived in North America about 10,000 years ago. I just smiled and did not argue with the liberal creepozoid ‘teacher.’ Just because we did not have concrete evidence did not mean we could not use common sense. It was obvious to me that humans populated North America much earlier, and we just had to find the evidence. The surface of the planet hides, changes, and destroys stuff every day. Patience will reveal much eventually.
This fossil of an intermediate phalanx bone, 3.2 cm long, suggests our species exited Africa far earlier.
"This supports a model not of a single rapid dispersal out of Africa 60,000 years ago, but a much more complicated scenario of migration. And this find, together with other finds in the last few years, suggests ... Homo sapiens is moving out of Africa multiple times during many windows of opportunity during the last 100,000 years or so," Petraglia said.
The discovery also shows these people were moving across the interior of the land, not coastlines, Petraglia added.

To be sure of their find and date its origins, the Al Wusta-1 bone was scanned in 3D and its shape compared against fingers bones from other Homo sapiens, other early humans, such as Neanderthals and species of primates.
Using a technique called uranium series dating, a laser was used to make microscopic holes in the bone and measure the ratio between tiny traces of radioactive elements. These ratios revealed that the fossil was 88,000 years old.
Other dates obtained from associated fossils and sediments converged to a date of approximately 90,000 years ago.
We can’t link it but Steve Sailer has a good piece on this relative subject at Taki
