Answer 2

The Zambezi River is one of the major cradles of human ancestors in the World.​

• The researchers hypothesize that Homo sapiens colonized the region south of the Zambezi River 200,000 years ago and that an isolated, founding population of modern humans lived there for at least 70,000 years.
• The group stayed put until a change in the climate brought on by modifications to the Earth's tilt and orbit carried rains to the north-east and south-west, creating lush green pathways that allowed the early people to disperse into new lands.
• The Zambezi River is the largest river entering the Indian Ocean from Africa, the longest river moving eastward in Africa, and the fourth-longest river overall.
• Its drainage basin is slightly less than the Nile's at 1,390,000 square kilometers.
