The key issue is: when did they all sapienize? In other words, is there evidence that sapienization happened once (in Africa), and then the salient populations moved out and interbred with the lesser lights living in Asia and Europe—and Africa—OR, sapienization happened locally everywhere. What says you guys and Wolpoff on that? Thanks.

In order words, movement of individuals and their genes in prehistoric times was higher than we think.
