This undated handout photo shows a Misliya Cave on Mount Carmel in Israel. The oldest remains of a modern human outside Africa have been dug up in Israel, offering evidence of what genetic studies have already suggested - that humans migrated out of Africa far earlier than previously thought. Facial fragments, including a jawbone and several teeth, were found at a site called Misliya Cave in Israel, one of several prehistoric cave sites located on Mount Carmel. The bones date to between 174,000 and 188,000 years old, said the report in the January 25, 2018 edition of the US journal Science. That's about 50,000 years earlier than the last known evidence of mankind's ancestors.(Photo/Agencies)
