From what I understand we reached our modern anatomical brain around 50,000 or so years ago but it was really under 10,000 years ago before any real signs of neolithic culture or civilization appeared.
Was is possible we could have gotten civilizaton maybe 10,000 or so years earlier? and the effects that would have had to the present?
