Homo sapiens, the first modern humans, evolved from their early hominid predecessors between 200,000 and 300,000 years ago. They developed a capacity for language about 50,000 years ago. The first modern humans began moving outside of Africa starting about 70,000-100,000 years ago.
The skeletons of these very early people have been found by archaeologists in places like Morocco in North Africa, Ethiopia and Kenya in East Africa, and in South Africa. So, it is to say that the first person came from Africa around 200,000 years ago. On the biggest steps in early human Evolution scientists are in agreement. The first human Ancestor appeared between 5 million and 7 million years ago, probably when some ape like creatures in Africa began to walk habitually on 2 legs. They developed a capacity for language about 50,000 Years ago.
