    Ahhh yes. I remember when we went there on a school trip in grade 5. It was really really cool to go into the caves. Just being down there makes you feel that much smaller compared to nature.

      True. The sun breaks down everything. Much has been removed, too. There are still ancient sites still in existence that speak of a rich history. They are waiting to be rediscovered.

      @Aeon there is no such thing as a "pure bread human" and if there are they are extremely rare. Most modern day humans contain large segments of dna that originate from interbreeding with denisovians and neanderthals. We didn't become the species homosapien on one linear evolutionary timeline; like canis familaris the domestic dog we have a series of evolutionary timelines that are interwoven. This was discovered after the complete sequencing of our genetic history in the The Human Genome Project. So to say that humans soley came from Africa is scientifically incorrect and a racist opinion. However if you are talking about a common ancestor of all humans coming from Africa you would be correct; just like the denisovians, neanderthals and all the unknown subspecies of humans we keep discovering come from that same common ancestor. However that common ancestor is so far back in the evolutionary chain it's negligible for this argument. We are also talking abou the missing link so we really don't know who or what they where and for people to infer that modern day Africans hold a monopoly on this common ancestor is basically comparing them to the missing link and I'm not a scientist or anything but that's racist.

    Sorry, but the first humans did not come from Africa. Any body that believes that is living in a fantasy. The true cradle of the world, the true place where humans lived is in what was the meeting of 4 rivers in a valley. Two of the rivers are flooded by the Persian gulf and the other two are still in existence today. Darwin has it wrong. Just observing nature and making educated guesses. It only was relevant for the era in which he lived.
