description Africa hosted our evolution till the appearance of the genus Homo and its spreading over Eurasia about two million years ago. What happened afterwards? Did the following episodes take place in Eurasia, as suggested by the phrase “out of Africa” used to describe this conquest?

Africa apparently remained the center of innovation and dispersal in human evolutionary history up till a few tens of thousand years ago.
