I think there is no evidence of an origin for H. sapiens capable of having confidence in. So little is fossilized and so little of that is yet apparent that extant theories are swimming in a sea of doubt. Bold assertions are complete tripe.
It's quite possible the pig/chimp hybrid hypothesis of Dr. Eugene McCarthy is the best explanation for H. sapiens. Archaeology is hopelessly propagandized, so degrading actual research that the field is a refuge for Gender Studies dropouts today.
Like Plato, all I know is that I know nothing.
Thanks!
