The Human Journey
Summary
Trace the great migration of our ancestors across the globe, starting with Homo erectus, who ventured out of Africa some 1.9 million years ago. Homo sapiens followed about 80,000 years ago, mixing with other hominin populations, notably Neanderthals and Denisovans. Around 20,000 years ago, humans crossed into the Americas, populating the continents in several waves during the last glacial period.
