M Petraglia et al [2010] reported the discovery of lithic tools,which were predominantly spears heads and scrapers between 2and 10cm in length at inland sites on the Arabian Peninsula.Some of these implements lie within emissions from the Toba
volcanic eruption.Earlier in the year Petraglia et al stated,that cultural material at the Jwarapuram sites in India did not vary significantly before and after the layers of Toba volcanic deposits.
He contends that people migrated from Africa before the Toba volcano erupted.His assertion is compatible with the mtDNA genetic study by A Merriwether et al [2005],which estimated the age of macrohaplogroup M at 74+/-7.4Ka.
it is difficult enough to remember the Aussan 800 bc Sabaean 300 ad, and Hymjarite 500 ad, empires in Arabia Foelix! Left allone people's migrations from Ethiopia into Yemen.( by General Abrama,in 570 ad.) Left alone neolithic incursions!
