In this video, we're exploring the possibility that Homo Erectus may have been the first Homo Sapiens. We'll look at the evidence and see if there's enough to suggest that Homo Erectus was the first human to walk the Earth.

For most of the 20th century, much of the western academic world believed in the Out of Africa theory of human evolution. About 2 million years ago Homo erectus left Africa and spread throughout Europe and Asia, becoming the first alien hominid. Homo erectus evolved into the Neanderthals and Denisovans, while in Asia most Peking Man stopped evolving, with the exception of Dragon Man. According to paleoanthropologist Chris Stringer, most Asian Homo erectus stopped evolving - with the exception of a small group in the Indonesian archipelago that branched off to become Homo floresiensis, and the Homo erectus that stayed in Africa continued to evolve and eventually became Homo sapiens and Homo rhodosiensis.
