1 OK -- Enough! Stop following me! The Origin and Dispersal of Modern Humans The questions regarding when, where, and how our species emerged and spread to dominate the planet, along with what happened to the Neanderthals and other late archaic groups in that process, are the oldest and most debated questions in the study of human evolution
2 For a long time, two contrasting models for Modern Human Origins predominated Multiregional Evolution Replacement (Out of Africa) Wolpoff Rightmire Stringer Klein
3 Assimilation Model (Smith) posits limited interbreeding and gene flow between archaic and modern human populations in some overlapping geographical zones and is supported by fossil genomic data. Evolutionary relationships among modern humans, Neanderthals and Denisovans as inferred from genomic data. Red arrows mark genetic evidence of interbreeding. Black arrows mark possible additional gene flow. From: Lalueza-Fox, C and Gilbert, MTP (2011) Current Biology 21:
4 Anatomical H. erectus Modernity Archaic H. sapiens Anatomically Modern H. sapiens

7 Homo sapiens? (Some archaic features) kya Omo Kibish II, Ethiopia
8 D. Brill Herto 1, Ethiopia (160 kya)
9 Herto kya Modern features: high rounded neurocranium, parietal expansion, prominent forehead, and non-projecting face. Archaic features: prominent, medially thick supraorbital torus with supratoral sulcus, wide interorbital breadth, large heavily built zygomatic bones, very large vertical face, and long foramen magnum. On the verge of anatomical modernity, but not yet fully modern. Adult male found in Ethiopia (Afar) in 1997 (published in 2003). (AP Photo/Tim White, Nature)

15 While genetic and archeological data suggest a rapid migration of modern humans out of Africa and into SE Asia by at least 60 kya, mainland SE Asia has lacked fossil evidence for early modern human occupation. Reconstruction of the modern human skull discovered in Tam Pa Ling (PNAS 2012): 50 ka cal BP In 2012, a modern human cranium from Tam Pa Ling, Laos, was reported with a C14 and luminescence dating of ca. 50,000 yrs Thus, this find appears to establish a modern humans in SE Asia at this time.
16 among the oldest directly dated EMHs in NE Asia An early modern human from Tianyuan Cave, Zhoukoudian, China. Dated to 42,000 39,000 kya using direct accelerator mass spectrometry radiocarbon. Note the modern chin morphology.
17 Fossil and archaeological evidence indicates that modern H. sapiens reached Australia by as early as 50 kya
18 What happened to Homo neanderthalensis when modern Homo sapiens spread across Europe?
19 Low brachial (arm) and crural (leg) indices. Forearm and lower leg are relatively short. Lagar Velho, Lapedo Valley, Portugal kya Neandertal, modern human Admixture? or Convergent Climatic adaptation?

22 Neandertals and modern humans could definitely interbreed, and, in fact, some of them unequivocally did. 7 May 2010

Conard et al. (2009) Nature advance online publication doi: /nature08169
35 Venus figurines, such as the Venus of Willendorf from Austria, are found at numerous Upper Paleolithic sites in Europe. These figurines have long been interpreted as reflecting an emphasis on fertility.
36 Modern H. sapiens in the Upper Paleolithic buried their dead in elaborate burials. Arene Candide, Italy (20 kya) Red ochre was used to cover the body, which was adorned with ivory pendants and shell hats. Note the flint blade placed in the hand. This contrasts with the relatively simple burials of the Neandertals, who co-existed with modern H. sapiens in Europe.

44 The Self-domestication Model: Later anatomically modern humans are a selfdomesticated species where selection for behavioral modifications in the social environment allowed enhanced social tolerance, extended social networks and larger population densities with male and female movement between groups

46 The Self-domestication Model: Male movements between groups occurred through fear and aggression dampening via neuroendocrine shifts, and reduced levels of adult circulating testosterone. These changes, in turn, led to developmental timing alterations, which then produced a secondary cascade of diagnostic morphological shifts that define our species: gracilization ( feminization ), neotenizing of crania
