Oldest human fossil outside Africa discovered in Israel

An ancient jawbone with several well-preserved teeth uncovered from a collapsed cave on the coast of Israel indicates modern humans may have left Africa far earlier than previously thought.
Researchers calculate that the fossil was between 174,000 and 188,000 years old. Previously, the oldest fossils of modern humans found outside of Africa were somewhere from 90,000 to 120,000 years old, also in Israel.
