the archaeologist who worked on the exploration of jebel faya belived that the tools they found were similar to those found in parts of africa why do you think this would suggest that people must have travelled from africa to arabia

Arabia in the last decade, Bretzke’s “lithic assemblage” poses a challenge to the standard ‘out of Africa’ model of early human dispersal that has dominated the scientific consensus since the late 1990s.

“The model usually says that modern humans came out of Africa between 50,000 and 60,000 years ago, but it is important to realise that we now have archaeological evidence to support the theory that there was an earlier expansion of modern humans,” the archaeologist explains.

“And now there is more and more evidence from both genetic studies and from other finds in Arabia and Asia that there might have been multiple expansions earlier than that.”

If Bretzke’s analysis is correct, then the tools not only testify to the human occupation of Arabia at least 75,000 years earlier than was previously accepted, but Suhailah is also one of the most important prehistoric archaeological sites, not just in the UAE but across the whole of the Arabian Peninsula.

i believe your answer is mountains.
