Even in a desert, early humans sought more than water

More than water alone guided humans in the ancient Arabian Peninsula. Scientists earlier believed human populations expanded across ‘Green Arabia’ wherever lakes formed.

Since early humans relied on stone tools for survival, the team concluded human migration was guided by the availability of both water and toolmaking stones.
