The new findings have confessed to researchers that the origin of at least some great apes might be in Europe.
The research that is causing theory that the human origin in Europe bases on the analysis of one skeleton of an ape. The jaw bone and especially the teeth of that skeleton have shown that something is interesting or different in that skeleton, which is found near the City of Nikitin, Thessaloniki peninsula, Greece. Scientific society has been thought that the origin of the human race is at Southern Apes, but the fact is that this fossil of the Greek ape is interesting. Where are its mates?
Was it alone? And if that ape is the lost link of evolution between monkeys and great apes, where are the rest of those apes? One skeleton is interesting especially if it is different than others. Where it is coming from? And why the similar teeth have not been found somewhere else? The theory about the origin of humans in Europe is interesting and requires serious observation. One thing is to forget to mention. This skeleton might be the remainings of one of the lines of evolution, which turned one species into Human.
Those teeth might belong to some ape, which is not known yet, and that thing might cause the fundamental things in human evolution. Is this monkey the lost ring between monkeys and Hominidae? The fact is that nobody knows the origin of the human, and the second thing is that human evolution lines are more complicated than we ever thought.
So the diagrams of the evolution of the human race are looking like a bush rather than a tree. And there were many species what was form at the same time. And the thing that makes that ape fascinating is that the Nikitin is at the outer shore of that peninsula. There are marks at inner land that give a guide that the Nikitin area was the island somewhere in the past.
There is a theory that the origin of the great apes was at the islands or some archipelago. That thing would explain why we can swim, and in fact, the islands would offer protection against big land animals like lions. So in this theory, some of the great apes would start to advance at the Greek Archipelago. And then the descendants would start to move to the south, because of the climate changing.
