Best Answer

It depends on your definition of "human".

If, by "human", you mean our current species, homo sapiens, then the oldest evidence of its existence so far, goes back almost 200,000 year.

If, by "human", you mean the first ancestors that we now qualify as "early human", then the oldest evidence so far is about 1.8 million years.

if you go by the timeframe held by some Christian fundamentalists who rely on a calculation done by Dr. John Lightfoot, a 17th century Anglican clergyman, then creation (with man following shortly after) occurred during 4004 BCE, about 6000 years ago.
