So we humans may have originated in Europe, rather than Africa.

Interesting, i like this part

Fascinating stuff to think about.

Of course there were multiple origins, there were multiple hominin. Just 30,000 years ago we shared earth with homo Neanderthalis, another species of human.

Then there's the mystery of the Denisovians, yet another modern hominin. Makes up (I seem to recall) 3% of human DNA, but almost no Denisovian fossils have been discovered.

Made shit bank yesterday so when I woke at my normal "prostate the size of a grapefruit" time, I went to work instead of going back to bed.

Insomnia is the workaholics friend.
