Abstract

Modern evolutionary anthropology undergoes significant changes, and it demands fundamental discussion of key problems by a wide range of experts dealing with the origin of Homo sapiens species. Possibility of different scenarios of human evolution and recognition of the fact that high biological variability is applicable to all evolutionary levels, assume a revision and specification of many fixed ideas in anthropology. The science about human evolution itself is evolving, and this process deserves great attention and a special study.
