MODERATORS
Genuinely interesting, but I take it with a good dose of default skepticism.
What are you sceptical about? This is just a visualization of established scientific knowledge.
I suppose I'd call myself more curious than sceptical - I could look shit up and I can't be bothered - but how do you define when humans became humans? I imagine its an estimate based from anthropological and fossil records and stuff
You could also argue its a moot point in the wider image - pop numbers at the time you discuss would be mean few grains difference at most.
