Before Louis Leakey began his excavations in Olduvai Gorge in the Great Rift Valley in the 1950s, archeologists believed that Homo sapiens originated in Asia. However, thanks to Leakey, his wife Mary, his son Richard, and other pioneering scientists, new evidence is uncovered every day that Africa is indeed the “cradle of humanity” and that a great deal of human history took place exclusively there.
