Archaeologists in Israel have discovered the oldest fossil of a modern human outside Africa. The fossil suggests that humans first migrated out of the continent much earlier than previously believed.
The scientists were digging in a cave called Misliya, on the slopes of Mount Carmel on the northern coast of Israel. "The cave is one of a series of prehistoric caves," says Mina Weinstein-Evron of the Zinman Institute of Archaeology at the University of Haifa, who led the team. "It's a collapsed cave, but people lived there before it collapsed."
The cave had been occupied for several hundred thousand years, she says.

ALL of the “Human” Beings left Africa.........
.
Humans never even got to Africa until about 4000 years ago, when the migration out of the mountains of Turkey began.

>> “Im not tired of the out of Africa hypothesis because its supported by evidence.” <<
Its supported by contrived bullshit and absolutely nothing else.
The site where Noah’s ark landed is there in Turkey for anyone that wishes to deal with reality, and massive amounts of evidence to get educated.

Hearing your nasty and profane opinion simply convinces me that I’m right.
Well, since the Garden of Eden was located between the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers, I don’t see how Iraq is in Africa.
But, I’m not a bible scholar and probably mixing a few things up.
The worldwide, catastrophic Flood of Noahs day would have destroyed the surface of the earth. If most of the sedimentary strata over the earths surface (many thousands of feet thick in places) is the result of this global catastrophe as creationists believe, then we would have no idea where the Garden of Eden was originally locatedthe earths surface totally changed as a result of the Flood.
Not only this, but underneath the region where the present Tigris and Euphrates Rivers are located there exists hundreds of feet of sedimentary strataa significant amount of which is fossiliferous. Such fossil-bearing strata had to be laid down at the time of the Flood.
Therefore, no one can logically suggest that the area where the present Tigris and Euphrates Rivers are today is the location of the Garden of Eden, for this area is sitting on Flood strata containing billions of dead things (fossils). The perfect Garden of Eden cant be sitting on billions of dead things before sin entered the world!

No one can possible know where the Garden of Eden was - could even be New Jersey - we are the Garden State!
It seems there are earlier forms found in northern India, so you’re probably right about earlier migrations out of Africa.
Very interesting.
Thanks.

Bingo!
Love it!
We have a winner!
Me, I don’t really believe the Cradle of Humanity claim.
