According to Anthropology, all modern humans are descended from Cro-Magnon. The name simply refers to the early Homo sapiens existing about 40,000 years ago, this was when humans started to develop culture and new technology, which eventually led to they way we are today. They are called Cro-Magnon because the first fossil of this kind was found in a cave, called Cro-Magnon, in France.

Yes. Besides the Sub Saharan regions of Africa, in which the majority of the populace is black, there are blacks and those descended from blacks all over Earth.

Other areas with a noticeable percent being black are Central America, South America and Australia. Though the ones in Australia are of a different racial type than those of Africa.

Who invented stick people?

200 years ago, the stick god, Spageto, descended onto Earth. He saw how hard it was for normal humans to draw people properly. So he chose a vessel, Mark Jefferson, and showed him in a vision how to draw stick people. He was inspired and decided to show everyone. Even today, people still draw stick people to remember Mark and Spageto.

How did humans go from neanderthals to what you are today?

Scientists believe that modern humans, Homo sapiens, coexisted with Neanderthals for a period of time before ultimately outcompeting them.
