Yes they did, but they are not our ancestors. At least according to the
"out of Africa" theory, wich I think holds best, and seems to get more
and more support. Homo Sapiens have migrated in at least three waves,
from something like 130 kya to 70 kya, I dont remember the "exact"
numbers, and probably the latest of them were ancestors to us europeans.
