Research suggests our ancestors traveled the oceans 70,000 years ago.

That's Hs.



The oldest tools on Flores are more like 800,000 and at least eleven
miles of open water between it and anyplace humans could walk to. Since
it would have taken at least a small population to have colonized a
bamboo raft looks likely. I suppose they might have ridden a log or

made of material not found on Flores. A kind of chert.
