Mungo Man maybe younger than thought
Mungo Man may not be such an old timer as to challenge the 'Out of Africa' theory after all, but he's still pretty darned close. Besides that, there is still cave art out there that is 62,000 years old. I still don't see how this meshes with the study that says the most recent male common ancestor of every person on the planet is just 60,000 years old. The australian aborgines have been pretty much isolated for the past 40-50,000 years. Can anyone else make sense of this contradictory data?
