Homo Sapiens Sapiens looks to be something like 300,000 years old. That’s very young as species go. Before (and a while after) that, there had been other Homo species for about 4,000,000 years.

H. Sapiens spread across the earth in a couple tens of thousands of years. But aside from little variations, there’s not a ton of evolution happening. We’re all H. Sapiens Sapiens.
