Recent breakthroughs in dating ancient samples of DNA and human remains
have led to a radical reassessment of human origins. At least ten other early human groups--some with the cognitive capacity to make art, jewelry and herbal medicines--occupied the planet at the same time as our ancestors, Homo Sapiens, and some of their genomes live within us today.  Leading archeologists and paleoanthropologists join Brian Greene to discuss how these surprising new insights are transforming our understanding of early Humans.
