ok this is ridiculous. African centric theories are starting to annoy the hell out of me.
So is the "evidence " from this ONE Chinese lab and scientist being peer reviewed yet?
Will it and will every African centrist wait until it is before speaking about it as though it is fact?
No sadly....they will just go into a self induced craze.
Also...There is NO evidence of the olmecs being from africa...Only the opinion that the giant stone heads were thought to resemble African traits.
I knkw MANY South Americans who have such traits. My wifes family has them and they are 100% Mexica.....
To me the olmec heads look like Neanderthal .....sooooo
Until evidence is peer reviewed it is NOT proof.
Gawd.....

Let me tell you why the idea that first inhabitants of China being black is bull.
Africa is located too far from the pacific.
Black civilization are more tribal, and artifacts are not their to prove it.
Over 90% of the race in China is Han Chinese.
Don't believe every thing you hear on the interwebs.

I think you mean Aborigines, were indigenous in South America. African population came later with the very first settlers abandon there colonies and joined up Indian tribes. By the way the Ivory coast located in West Africa had a huge slavery industry and these West Africans made their way to the new world.
Before Columbus the Americas had at least 900 million Indians living in mostly dirt brick structures, warring with each other and cutting out hearts.

People seem to ignore the fact that scientific theories are constantly debunked. It is currently "in fashion" to attribute everything to the African race.

Perhaps people are upset because they are judged as "primitive" if they distance themselves from the squalor and violence that is modern-day Africa.
To label someone primitive because they don't agree with you is ignorance personified.edit on 9/23/2013 by Restricted because: clarification

Well it seems that no one is willing to support this thread or the story. To bad. I can see the possibility in it.

What we are arguing, you ignorant bafoons who call others racist at the drop of a hat is the patterns of ancient migrations.

I believe a common ancestor came out of Africa. A common ancestor being the key term. Common ancestor, not human. Now, the common ancestor stayed in Africa and the others migrated, doing their thing becoming different races.
But, OOA is still a theory. Don't discredit the Multi-Regional hypothesis. Due to the vast physical and "other" differences, I personally lean more toward the Multi-Regional theory of evolution.
