- A new study pins down the time and place where the last-known Homo erectus lived. Fossils at Indonesia's Ngandong site, mostly skull pieces, represent at least a dozen H. erectus that died at the same time some 108,000 to 117,000 years ago. The species first appeared in Africa 2 million years ago. https://www.discovermagazine.com/planet-earth/the-doom-of-homo-erectus-mass-death-marks-end-of-species 5 comments science
