 185,000 BP to 140,000 BP



180,000 BP: Massive eruption of Newberry caldera in what is now central Oregon, USA.

170,000 BP: By this time humans wore clothing. (Wikipedia)
150,000 BP to 130,000 BP: Egypt: Some Stone Age tools most often called Aterian have been found and dated to this time frame of Last Interglacial Period of the Middle Stone Age.
~ A possible second migration from Africa begins, perhaps at some during the process involving the ancestors of modern man, homo sapiens sapiens.  

145,000 BP to 30,000 BP: Micoquien (?), an early middle Paleolithic industry.


130,000 BP: By this time Neanderthal man is well established in Europe and Asia, "probably having evolved after his ancestors left Africa."

125,000 BP, Sri Lanka: There is strong evidence of human settlements here at this time.

122,000 BP: Melt back of ice. Last major peaking, yielding seas well above 2000 AD levels.

120,000 BP: This is a time in the middle of the Paleolithic era when Neanderthals and modern humans coexisted in Europe and Asia.

100,000 BP: Abundant evidence of human beings like us physically like us populating the Earth. There were probably many of us here several 100,000 years before this time.
