Paleoanthropologists, linguists, archeologists and other scientists offer the latest interpretations of fossil findings and genetic studies and posit intriguing theories on how Homo sapiens became the only existing human species.

But once our ancestors emerged in Africa, were we destined to dominate the globe?
