  • Descrição: Fossils from Morocco are the earliest yet found of our species, dating to about 300,000 years ago. Previously, the oldest known Homo sapiens fossils had been found in 2003 in Ethiopia and were 195,000 years old. The new fossils upend the idea that there was a "cradle of humankind" in East Africa. Instead, humans seem to have evolved in multiple loca- tions across the African continent. Homo fossils were first found at Jebel lrhoud in Morocco in 1961 but were thought to be tens of thousands of years old.
