Early Human Migration
Early human migration For my topic I will be doing early human migration, especially from Africa I changed my mind a couple of times on what my topic would be about, My initial topic was going to be about the first cavemen to migrate but decided against it after I couldn’t find much secondary information on it. So I decided to do ‘Early human migration’ both topic are quit similar but will still be hard to be very detailed as there are no historical record that tracks the migratory patterns of the earliest humans but I am persistent to carry on with my topic.
Plan of action
Firstly for my topic I will be researching and finding out more about early migration from the internet (websites are from the list of sources) and articles from the newspaper. I will also look for documentaries that could be of use, and find some books (or read extracts) on early migration. All these are secondary resources. For primary, I will be making questionnaire about my topic, to find out how much people actually know about the topic. I will be mainly using secondary research, but some sorts of elements of primary research. Also I will first be documenting all the information I read and think is relevant in the one word document so it’s easier to find I will also download the documentaries and clips for future reference then I will be making a power point presentation for when we present to the class.

    Intro Paragraph: Explain background of Great Migration. Time period. Re-enact the time. Use works of literature in book (poems, quotes, songs). Refer to Wilkerson interview explaining how Migration was so great because it wasn’t planned. Wilkerson said it was a movement where people did it for themselves and don’t see themselves as heroes. Most people don’t even know that they were apart of history. Every person had his or her own reasoning for leaving. Be sure to use Wilkerson a lot and tie that to facts about the Migration. The three characters in The Warmth of Other Suns vary in a number of ways when looking through different disciplines at each characters reasoning for leaving their circumstances and migrating. Ida Mae left because of a psychological battle, George because of cultural exposure, and Robert has a special case where sociology and geography coincide.…

    Have you ever thought of having to build tends by hand with nature’s resources in hand. Or even having to travel great distances by feet or a raft everyday? According to the genetic and paleontological record, we only started to leave Africa between 60,000 and 70,000 years ago. Evidence shows sea levels were probably low enough for the first people to cross from the horn of Africa into Arabia via the Red Sea's Bab-el-Mandeb straits. From there it seems that southern Asian countries like India were key stopping points from where humans spread across the rest of the world. The extensive arid environments of northern Africa and the Middle…

    One example of non-historical evidence for human migration out of Africa, provided in Guy Gugliotta’s, “The Great Human Migration” is the fossilized remains of shellfish such as, barnacles, mussels, periwinkles, and other mollusks, which imply that these humans were using the sea as a major supply of food needed for their survival . Since, some early modern humans in Africa, were located in Blombos they had a vast supply of water near them, which contained their major food supply of shellfish.…

    I love a good challenge, but when Professor Romo gave her lecture of the Early Humans Migration in the Americas my beliefs were challenged. My initial reaction was to laugh out loud, but I hold my composer due to my curiosity of wanting to know why would it be consider a theory. Out of the 3 theories covered in class I found the alien theory skeptical since I do not believe in aliens at all. To even believe that aliens put people on earth sounds unrealistic to me so does aliens helping people to migrate to the Americas. I have seen few documentaries that claim that aliens put people on earth and take people back from earth to do experiments on them. I just think those documentaries are fabricated to keep people entertain. Perhaps it has to…

    People migrate because of environmental, political, and economic factors. The Bantu people migrated south because of environmental factors such as the Sahara advancing toward them, a push factor, and an abundance of land further south, a pull factor. The Aksumites migrated inland because of political factors like escaping the incoming wave of Islam, a push factor, and the ability to practice Christianity, a pull factor. The Ghanan people migrated inland because of an economic factor that they could become rich off mining gold, a pull factor. These African nations are great examples of why people migrate.…
