Did humanity really “exit Africa?” I mean, the theory that humanity developed there first is so widely accepted, and repeated by every “scientist” and especially media commentator, I wonder if opposing evidence that disproves that theory might be simply ignored.

Science is always up for revision. No scientist would say for *SURE* that humanity developed there, only that at this point the evidence is so. all any reputable scientist will say is that ‘as of now, the most reliable evidence seems to confirm *this* theory’.

It’s the kind of thing that confuses some who are critical of science (no you, but some of my friends), just like the common misunderstanding of what they word ‘theory’ means in a scientific sense.
