Ancient Human Migration Route Uncovered in Tajikistan's Zeravshan Valley

Archaeologists have discovered a multi-layered site offering insights into early human presence and interactions in Central Asia.

The Soii Havzak site in the Zeravshan Valley reveals evidence of human activity dating back 150,000 to 20,000 years.
Findings include stone tools, animal bones, and ancient vegetation, suggesting the area was a migration route for early humans.
Research indicates the valley may have been a corridor for Homo sapiens, Neanderthals, and Denisovans.
The well-preserved remains provide clues about the ancient climate and potential interactions between human species.
This discovery challenges previous assumptions about human habitation in Central Asia during colder climatic periods.
