Description
The Neolithic skull shown here, discovered in the northwest of Mautetania, does not differ in any way from that of a modern human being. On an anthropological level, the study of Neolithic skeletons is rather disappointing, because they can only be divided into three groups: Black, White and Mixed. The mystery of their origin remains, and nothing makes it understandable why Homo sapiens seized world domination within a rather short time. The available scientific data allow us to assume that the Neolithic people began to occupy the Sahara between 7000 and 6ooo BC; but these figures are only preliminary, and it is quite possible that they are a little underestimated (IFAN Collection, Dakar, Senegal) - 1969
