Possible reason for why the Out of Africa hypothesis is still just a hypothesis. Aside from its foundation in racism, this may also be an factor as to why evolution is so fervently denied amongst believers. You wont find this exactly if you Google it because I typed it based on my own research, but please research these topics. Johann Blumenbach, German anatomist adopted Swedish naturalist Linnaeus’ classification system which divided humans into four major groups based on geographical area, Africans were labeled as “black, American Indians as “red” Asians as “yellow” and Europeans as “white”. Based on his comparative examinations from his human skull collection he surmised that the most “beautiful” skull was that of a woman’s from the Caucasus Mountains. Its symmetry reflected nature’s ideal form, the circle. Blumenbach thus concluded that inhabitants of the Caucasus region were “god’s” original creation and the mountain range, not far from the lands described in the Hebrew bible was near the place of human origins.
