Fossils discovered in a Moroccan cave have sparked a new debate about humanity's true origins. The fossils, which date back 773,000 years, were unearthed in a cave in Morocco and have been confirmed to be a type of early human. This discovery reinforces the idea that Homo sapiens originated in Africa, as previously suggested by scientists.

According to a study published in Nature, the fossils were found in a cave in Morocco and have been dated to around 773,000 years ago. This is around the time when the human evolutionary family tree split into what would become Homo sapiens, Neanderthals, and Denisovans.

The discovery of these fossils has significant implications for our understanding of human evolution and the origins of our species. It suggests that Homo sapiens may have originated in Africa, rather than in other parts of the world.

The study's findings have been met with excitement and interest from the scientific community, with many experts hailing the discovery as a major breakthrough in the field of paleoanthropology.
