The Fifth Day
The emergence of present-day hominins.

Human-like subspecies, who were highly wise and intelligent, appeared throughout Central Asia and Europe; their cousins who had remained in Africa evolved into modern humans. Humans began leaving Africa and spreading to the world about 100,000 years ago
Archaeologists today have strong evidence pointing to an astonishing leap in human intelligence that occurred between 100,000 and 60,000 years ago, indicated by paintings discovered inside some caves in these regions

The Sixth Day
Man's First Mind's Adventure and the Beginning of Civilization
The first signs of civilization appeared around 10,000 years ago, when people in the Middle East began to grow edible crops near the courses of great rivers, necessitating their settlement in one location near their crops. The nomadic way of life was gradually replaced by permanent camps, resulting in a more stable life. This was followed by the domestication of animals in order to use them as modes of transportation or sources of food and clothing
Large permanent settlements, such as Jericho and Konya, appeared in the fossil monuments; these early settlements were not yet true cities, but rather disorganized groups of villages with few signs of social relations, wealth, or regimes. The emergence of inter-people trade marked the beginning of the great civilizational leap
The first real civilization cities appeared around 5200 years ago in several locations across the Middle East, when fossils revealed clear evidence of the emergence of social stratification and a ruling elite wielding wealth and power, and thus human civilization began to creep on the margins of history
Most of the characteristics of today's world were born with the invention of writing and the beginning of recording human knowledge, including central governments based on army power, institutions, religion, patriarchy, monetary systems, extreme wealth and extreme poverty, large-scale agriculture, trading networks, and great empires. Then, in many other parts of the world, such as China, India, Egypt, Peru, Crete, and Mexico, extended human civilization appeared
With the exception of name and location changes, this pattern of human civilization has not changed substantially over the past 5000 years
