Homo erectus of China (Peking Man) of 400,000 years ago

Is it possible that Homo erectus evolved at several places on earth in stages? The Peking Man would have evolved first into modern man, others evolved later. Would the evolutes all have the same DNA? That hypothesis is popular in China.

Yes--this fits with the multiregional hypothesis and there are no data to refute it.
