A tantalising prospect is emerging from new scientific discoveries in China. A reproduction of an ancient human skull, dated to 1 million years old, presents scientists with startling new evidence. It's been categorised within the group
Homo longi or 'Dragon Man'.
So, firstly, humans may have been around on Earth twice as long as was originally thought. Interesting...
Secondly, the five known branches of large-brained human, which largely ran concurrently for hundreds of thousands of years (Asian erectus, heidelbergensis, sapiens, Neanderthals and
Homo longi (including the Denisovans)), would have had an original precursor dating back over 1 million years.
Given that this ancient skull - known as Yunxian 2 - was found in China, speculation is growing that the emergence of the human species may have begun in Asia rather than Africa:
And that brings us to link with Sitchin's work. If the flesh-and-blood gods, or Anunnaki, set up their original colonising bases in the Mesopotamian region as he suggested, then would it not make sense for their human 'slaves' to have first been 'produced'
there, on the Asian continent? Only later would a sub-set be sent to work the gold mines of Africa.
Speculation on speculation, but it's an interesting idea to consider.
