contemporaneous hominin speciesLive Science
•80% Informative
There were at least nine Homo species around Africa , Europe and Asia by about 300,000 years ago .
One by one, all except H. sapiens disappeared; by 40,000 , H. Sapiens was the last hominin left.
To understand how we endured as a species, we must look at what we have in common with other hominins.
After emerging in Africa , H. sapiens migrated into Europe , Neanderthals were already established, and into Asia .
Evidence from DNA in people today shows that these groups interacted.
Global climate change is also thought to have contributed to the extinction of some Homo species.
H. Sapiens came perilously close to extinction at one point, with the global Homo population hovering at roughly 1,300 .
