Henan Fossil 'Greatest Discovery Since Peking Man!'
Thursday January 24, 2008
"An almost complete human skull fossil that could date back 100,000 years has been unearthed in China with state media hailing it as the greatest discovery since Peking Man," Reuters reported this week.
The fossil, discovered in Henan Province, could be as much as 100,000 years old. A fossil dubbed "Peking Man," discovered near Beijing in the 1920s, was 250,000 to 400,000 years old.
Peking Man vanished in 1941, while en route to the United States for safekeeping after Japan invaded China during the Second World War.

It’s mostly because of population, I’m sure.
The population density in China is not as much as European at all. Add up the migration of European to US and other place, European is the best children bearer.
