What If Humans Are MUCH Older Than We Think? (Michael Button)

Are Homo sapiens much older than we think? Is it possible our species could stretch back almost 1 million years?

A century ago, many scientists believed H. sapiens were young. However, that all changed in 2017 with a stunning discovery in North Africa, that showed our species was at least 300,000 years old.

However, while fossils tell one story, our genes tell another. Because even as the fossil record was being pushed back, genetic evidence began hinting that Homo sapiens might be far, far older...

Thus, by looking at evidence from genetics, anthropology, and archaeology, it’s clear - Homo sapiens could be far older than we think

And if that’s true, it could mean much more is possible than we ever imagined.
