About this title

Synopsis

Two geologists provide a jaunty account of their controversial discoveries on the island of Java: that human ancestors left Africa and migrated east almost two million years ago, much earlier than most anthropologists had believed; and that Homo erectus might have survived until as late as 27,000 years ago, which would mean it coexisted with Homo sapiens rather than being an evolutionary precursor. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
