Sad. Life is complicated, if only we chose where to bbe born. But this seems to be adapting to environment otherwise if born in normal conditions, they would be ok.

It's been more or less conclusively shown that there was a "mass extinction" event 6 to 12 thousand years ago for sure now, it explains a lot about such, recent studies show one may happen as soon as in 13 years (An Asteriod strike), not to speak doomsday stuff lakini the number of jamaas calling this estimate 'scientific' is chilling.

When modern man (Homo Sapiens) first started to emerge, they found themselves co-existing with other human like species. The encounters between Homo Sapiens and these hominind species must have been rather interesting and may have led to the extinction of some of these species.

Here are some of the species that co-existed with Homo Sapiens


Homo Naledi



Homo Denisova


Homo Erectus



Red Deer Cave people


Homo Floresiensis aka Ebu Gogo



Heidelbergensis aka Rhodiensis



Neanderthalensis

Face of the first Briton is revealed: DNA analysis shows 10,000-year-old man had 'dark to black' skin with BLUE eyes and curly hair - and he shares up to 10% of his DNA with today's Brits

The first ancient Britons had black skin, dark curly hair and blue eyes, according to DNA tests.

The ‘extraordinary’ findings were made by cutting-edge genetic tests and facial reconstruction techniques carried out for the first time on the bones of ‘Cheddar Man’ who died 10,000 years ago.

The bones, found in Somerset's Cheddar Gorge, are the oldest near-complete human skeleton ever found in Britain and scientists said they were surprised to discover that the earliest Briton would be considered ‘black’ if he lived today.

Britain's oldest complete human skeleton, known as Cheddar Man, was unearthed in 1903 in Gough's Cave in Cheddar Gorge, Somerset.

The prehistoric male lived around 10,000 years ago, and a huge hole in his skull suggests he died a violent death.

Other remains found at Gough's Cave have been linked to cannibalistic rituals, trophy display and secondary burial by prehistoric humans.

Cheddar Man, thought to have died in his twenties and have had a relatively good diet, lived in Britain when it was almost completely depopulated.

Although previous populations had settled in Britain long before his arrival, they were wiped out before him.

The Cheddar Man marked the start of continuous habitation on the island, making him among the very first modern Britons.

Genetically, he belonged to a group of people known as the 'Western Hunter-Gatherers', Mesolithic-era individuals from Spain, Hungary and Luxembourg.

His ancestors migrated to Europe from the Middle East after the Ice Age and today, 10 per cent of White British people are descended from the group.

Scientists have reconstructed the Cheddar Man's face several times using the shape of his skull and assumptions about the appearance of the first Britons.

Most of these analyses were not based on DNA data, and assumed he was white with light hair.
