Here is the info where the out of Africa documentary got the info I believe. The last part of the article explains why at this point africa is still the accepted point of the first homo we have found. But its amazing we have found what we have including DNA. The real interesting question is when did language begin.

The farthest back we can go is PIE language.

Isn't this intersting?

They believe some of the click languages are some of the oldest.
I was reading that new research finds language probably goes back much further than was thought, over 100,000 years. I can't find a reference for it yet though, it was in this year's science news. Language gave humans a powerful advantage over other competing groups of humans, driving evolution.

I've seen documentaries that claim from the study of early homo we had the brain development and from the various ear bones they have concluded we were able to make sounds very early on. I believe the cast of brain cases shows the area of the brain for speach was developed. But I'm sure gestures were first. My dogs don't speak much but gesture more.

Body language, facial expressions, and emotional noises can be seen in most animal species and is my guess at how we communicated early on. And when we started staying in one place and generations and several tribes coming together made it easier to pass knowledge of a language on to new generations, and not having to worry about scaring off prey/attracting predators while trying to talk makes sense to me too.
I would bet there were many many 'languages' that early people would create with their families, only to die out and combine as the families died off or absorbed into other early tribes.

aliens taught language to ancient sumarians; algebra to egyptians and mexicans.

hold up hold up, as a resident freak, is there a "Butt Bible" I'm not aware of? This could be a game changer.
as our atmosphere changes so will the shape of our heads- they'll get bigger on top..who knows, we may be them in early development.
