The Out of Africa theory hypothesizes that modern humans originated in Africa over 100,000 years ago and replaced the world's archaic human species such as Homo Erectus and Neanderthals, after migrating within and then out of Africa to the non-African world within the last 50,000 to 100,000 years which involved a leading proponent of Chris Stringer. This view is highly accepted among both archaeological and anthropological academics as they do support the notion that archaic Homo populations did leave Africa in an initial phase of globalisation, called the Out of Africa 1 model. In a follow up to this, the population replacement hypothesis indicated that modern humans evolved in Africa from the ancestral hominids that did not travel out of this continent in the first stage of global colonisation. It is then argued in this model that once evolved as anatomically modern humans, Homo sapiens travelled out of Africa to explore, colonise and replace the archaic Homo population. This
