Detailed explanation-2: -Homo sapiens, the first modern humans, evolved from their early hominid predecessors between 200, 000 and 300, 000 years ago. They developed a capacity for language about 50, 000 years ago. The first modern humans began moving outside of Africa starting about 70, 000-100, 000 years ago.
