The main works of Y.Y. Roginsky in the field of evolutionary anthropology were dedicated to issues of a modern human’s origin and his ancestral homeland. Y.Y. Roginsky devoted many works to criticism of a hypothesis of «presapiens’s» existence in Europe. Attracting paleoantropological and archaeological data he also made up a lot for justification the concept of «a Neanderthal phase» in a family tree of H. sapiens. Y.Y. Roginsky is the author of developed detail concept of «wide monocentrism» in a question of an ancestral homeland of H. sapiens. He stated his own points of view on problems of neoanthrop’s origin and environment. Y.Y. Roginsky developed such problem as «ruptures of gradualness» and the speed of evolution of human ancestors. Development of philosophical aspects of anthropogenesis is essential. The scientist paid much attention to anthropological works of Ch. Darwin, allocated the main achievements in development of anthropogenesis model, and explained limitation of some theoretical provisions. Y.Y. Roginsky considered importance of the establishment of arboreal forms’ existence in a human family tree. At last, in some works Y.Y. Roginsky concerns at the problem of relations between ontogenesis and filogenesis of hominids.
