I may have missed it, but I didn't notice the age of the site on your post. I went to the BBC link you provided and it seems that humanity may be as old as 400,000 years.

Thanks!

Oh, I got the wrong link at BBC, there was the nature article too.
Now its corrected and the age is just at the start.

The idea that modern people evolved in a single "cradle of humanity" in East Africa some 200,000 years ago is no longer tenable, new research suggests.
Fossils of five early humans have been found in North Africa that show Homo sapiens emerged at least 100,000 years earlier than previously recognised.

Thank you for your comment @valued-customer !
