When trying to find out the place of the origin, a good method is to find
the least related subgoroups or individuals. Usually they are found at or
near the place of the origin. In che case of Homo sapiens that place is in
southern Africa.

A large part of the differences between the African and other populations
can be understood as adaptations to a colder climate. Likewise the
differences between European and many Asian populations can be understood
as adaptations to even colder climate.
