The story of human origin remains incomplete

The human origin remains unclear - such is the conclusion of the studies so far. The evolutionary history of apes and humans is largely incomplete, reviews say.

The core of the problem of human origin

Humans are believed to have deviated from chimpanzees about 9,3 million to 6,5 million years ago. Today, chimpanzees are our closest living relatives, sharing 99% of our DNA with us. This is true, even though at times it seems that people intend to destroy the natural environment of our close relative. Some scientists believe that the chimpanzee ancestor that led to hominins is missing. Others suspect that the ancestor is more likely to have evolved from a Miocene-like species.

Top down versus bottom up

Some top-down scientists study chimpanzees to try to reconstruct the origin of hominins. Others use a bottom-up approach, focusing on the fossil record of most extinct apes. Reconciling these two approaches remains at the heart of the problem of human origin, the study said.

Upon review, the researchers believe that it is "likely that the last shared ape ancestor had its own set of features, different from the features of modern humans and modern apes." Thus, the study of living apes is unlikely to address issues of human origin. Taking all the evidence into account - both living and fossil apes and hominins - it is clear that the human evolutionary story based on a few living apes currently lacks much of the picture.

In order to unify the various theories, the study proposes to include in the equation everything that is known about hominins, living apes and Miocene apes. It is important to look at the study as a complex to complete the picture. The first hominini probably comes from Africa. Despite phylogenetic uncertainties, fossil apes remain essential for the reconstruction of the starting point from which humans and chimpanzees evolved.

Darwin's theory 150 years later

About 150 years ago, Darwin introduced "In The Descent of Man," which suggests that our origins come from an unknown ancestor in Africa. Today, Darwin's speculation is supported by many discoveries of extinct hominin fossils, but so far none has proved to be an indisputable missing link. Darwin's evolutionary studies once led him to be called "the most dangerous man in England" for disrupting religious ideas. However, he himself almost became a religious clergyman, believing in his time the "strict and literal truth of every word in the Bible." His life was changed in 1831 by a trip to South America.

Darwin arrived in the Galapagos and studied flora and fauna - this study eventually led to the theory of evolution. In 1859, he presented overwhelming evidence in The Origin of Species, criticized by clergy and even some of his own family, but supported by prominent scientists. Gradually, Darwin's theory became widely accepted.

Zecharia Sitchin and the Missing Article

Unlike Darwin, Stichin concentrated on translations of ancient Sumerian and Akkadian clay tablets without scientific evidence. In seven books known as The Earth Chronicles, Sitchin proposed a radical story about human origin. Humans have been genetically engineered by aliens called Anunnaki, who arrived on Earth 450 years ago.

"According to Sitchin, there is an advanced race of human-like aliens called the Anunnaki on Nibiru and they are a missing link in the evolution of Homo sapiens," writes a critical review by Ohio State University. Like today's scientists, Sitchin believed that human origin began in Africa, where the Anunnaki mined gold. Once arrived, they genetically altered the early humans and created a suitable race of slaves for mining operations. As irritating as these ideas may be, it is one of the ideas why the missing link in human evolution remains undiscovered.

Jump start

If that were true, our ancestors got a jump start, increasing intelligence through alien decisions. However, this would not refute Darwinian evolution, but it suggested that human intelligence had received evolutionary support. Prior to his death in 2010, Sitchin insisted on scientific DNA tests to confirm whether his views were true. He was willing to bet his life's work to see if the aliens had ever lived among humans. However, testing was either not performed or was not reported.

Nevertheless, Sitchin's work remains fascinating. Until we convincingly discover the missing link, human origin will remain a fascinating mystery. For some of us, religion and spirituality fill in the gaps, for others the only acceptable method is science. Perhaps, as researchers in a recent study believe, solving the mystery will require being open to all possibilities.

Zecharia Sitchin: The Lost Book of Enki

In the bestseller series Chronicles of the Earth Zecharia Sitchin he dealt the story of our creation at the hands of the Anunnaki, "Those who came from heaven on earth," from the perspective of us humans. Now, in Enki's lost book, we will look at this saga from the perspective of Mr. Enki, the leader of the Anunnaki, who was worshiped as a god in ancient times. God who decided to tell the story of how these aliens came from the planet Nibiru on Earth.
