Archaeologist Mina Weinstein-Evron from Haifa University in Israel describes the setting where tools and remains of the earliest known modern human outside Africa. The fossils, which were found in a cave in northern Israel, are almost 200,000 years old. This comes as a huge shock to scientists because until now they thought the first modern humans had only just evolved in Africa at that time and only began to emerge from the continent 100,000 years ago.
