The “Out of Africa” theory has modern Homo Sapiens leaving the continent around 70-60,000 years ago. Why would the last Homo Erectus die out 30,000 years BEFORE then?
What about Homo Heidelbergensis? Homo Neanderthalensis? Homo Denisovansis?
What about ADAM & EVE? All humans can be traced back to the first couple.

Time for you to do some homework!
Curiously, that is just about the same time period when Neanderthals began to expand.
I know that one common theory is that Neanderthals may have evolved from Homo Erectus.
Artifacts and a few fossils of modern humans dating back 100,000 years have been found in Israel and the Caucasus region between the Black Sea and the Caspian, so it appears that modern humans were also on the move earlier than thought.
Curiously, once again, modern humans appear to have migrated towards Persia, India and southeast Asia for about 20,000 years before they made a U-turn and marched back across southern Asia, along the northern Black Sea coast, and into Europe, about 40,000 years ago.
The Neanderthals went extinct in Europe just about the same time that modern humans arrived.
The out of Africa theory has been thoroughly debunked by recent genetic studies.
