What will be an ideal response?
There are two primary models: the Regional Continuity Model: Multiregional Evolution argues that
local populations continued simultaneous development over time to form anatomically modern

about 200,000 years ago modern human emerged in Africa and migrated out to replace all other
human populations extant. The partial replacement model argues that modern humans emerged in
Africa and migrated outward to interbreed with Neandertal between 80,000 and 50,000 ya.
