Answer:

From sources that historians have come across

Explanation:

Homo sapiens, the first modern humans, evolved from their early hominid predecessors between 200,000 and 300,000 years ago. They developed a capacity for language about 50,000 years ago. The first modern humans began moving outside of Africa starting about 70,000-100,000 years ago.

The ability to make and use tools, our control of fire and our knack for finding shelter from the elements all contribute to our collective knowledge. Sites like Blombos Cave, shown here, have given scientists evidence about how early humans lived and what they were capable of. Most archaic hominins were a bit shorter, as well, though a few groups were thought to approach average human height. Of course, some were far shorter than us, as well, as with the hobbits of Indonesia, Homo floresiensis. The diminutive humans averaged just around three and a half feet tall.
