Unraveling the first migrations of anatomically modern humans out of Africa has
invoked great interest among researchers from a wide range of disciplines.
Available fossil, archeological, and climatic data offer many hypotheses, and as
such genetics, with the advent of genome-wide genotyping and sequencing
techniques and an increase in the availability of ancient samples, offers another
important tool for testing theories relating to our own history. In this review,
we report the ongoing debates regarding how and when our ancestors left Africa,
how many waves of dispersal there were and what geographical routes were taken.
We explore the validity of each, using current genetic literature coupled with
some of the key archeological findings.
