50,000 BC, whether they took a temporary green passage through the Sahara, or created risky rafts to drift the nautical pass between Djibouti and Yemen, our ancient African ancestors left Africa. Their risk paid off as our ancestors were certainly equipped to handle life in Northern Africa, the Middle East and beyond, but distant cousins already mastered this feat hundreds of thousands of years before them. The clash between humans and Neanderthals was perhaps the greatest faceoff between two species in the history of the world. As well as spreading disease and engaging in brutal carnage, our ancestors also had much to learn from those who braved the cold for hundreds of thousands of years. 50,000 BC is a fictional action drama, but it is also a simulation of a real and epic encounter. Neanderthals possess strength, intelligence, and they are skilled at excelling in the cold. Humans possess speed, intelligence, but most of all they eat a more diverse diet and require fewer calories than Neanderthals, allowing for them to support a larger population, hence allowing for them to make more fatal mistakes while preserving the survival of the species. Indeed, this is a story of our ancestors invading from the south, but do not be so hasty as to call it an extinction event...
