I’m of the opinion that civilizations have risen and fallen on the earth for millions of years.

Who’s to say they were human? What’s the test for determining? Is the soul identifiable from fossils? Some how I don’t think so...

My question is when did they become white and move to Europe?

“The tools were unearthed at the site of Jebel Faya in the United Arab Emirates, a team reports in the journal Science.”

Chimpanzees

Chimpanzees are humanity’s closest living relatives, and apparently learned how to make and use tools long ago without human help, with stone hammers found at a chimp settlement in the Ivory Coast dating back 4,300 years. They are even capable of making spears to hunt other primates for meat, and are known to have developed specialized tool kits for foraging army ants.

So I guess tools are not the measure...

Like with any science, any real science, there isn’t unanimity on any of this. There is a multiregional model of human development, of long-standing, that was just strengthened recently by work done sequencing the Neanderthal genome (up to about 5% of the native European genome, ie. Whites), and similarly looking at Denisovan genes (up to about 5% of the Papua New Guinean genome, and probably other Melanesians, Asians). Even, of all places, The New York Times, in an odd little paragraph in their daily editorial a few days ago, accepted these as fact - surprising because they’re involved in racial differences, something NYT seems to pretend are all imaginary (except when it serves a leftist purpose). The fossil record is fragmentary, at best. Some of this dating relies heavily on mathematical estimations of genetic change over time, without much real knowledge of variations in rate of change by other factors like climate, diet. The fragmentary fossil record isn’t helped by much of human development having taken place near bodies of water, often at times when the sea level has been lower than today. Many sites are now far underwater.

Another very controversial study strongly suggests humans left Africa much later, sometime last Saturday afternoon.
