INTERDOC_13 — Out of Africa vs. Multiregional: The Synthesis That Changed Everything

The two dominant models of human origins battled from the 1980s through the 2010s. Chris Stringer and Peter Andrews championed the Recent African Origin (RAO) model (1988, Science): anatomically modern humans evolved exc
