In the last few episodes we've explore the Milankovitch Cycles and have come to understand how they impact the Humid Sahara discussed in the first episode of Ultima Thule. In this episode we go back only one eccentricity cycle ago - 100,000 years (or so) - and see what the world was like then for humans and how the Humid Sahara played an integral role to humans pushing their way out of Africa. We explore how time and again humans left Africa and died out... so what happened in order to make us successful outside of our mother continent?
