question:
The first early human ancestors to leave Africa were scrawny little creatures that walked more like apes, according to a new study that is challenging existing theories on the origin of our species. For years it was thought that the first early human to walk from the African continent into Asia and Europe was the tall and muscular Homo erectus. But new analysis of early human fossils has suggested it may have actually been a far more diminutive species known as Homo habilis, or 'Handy man', that first made the journey. The findings are likely to be highly controversial as no fossils belonging to Homo habilis have been discovered outside Africa.New analysis of early human fossils has challenged conventional theoriesMost experts believe tall, muscular Homo erectus was first to leave AfricaThe new study suggests Homo habilis, known as Handy Man, beat themIt suggests Homo erectus did not evolve in Africa but moved there later
