“ It is the advent of absolute chronology, meaning the radioactive dating methods , particularly that of Potassium-Argon, that allowed science to make great progress and derby disparage the dogmatism that prevailed not long ago in their domain. In fact, the stratigraphical methods did not offer a clear-cut choice between the scholars’ differing views. Thus, as pertaining to the main issue, it has been shown that the first inhabitants of Europe was a migrating Black: the Grimaldi Man. But a prominent authority, the late French scholar Raymond Vaufrey, had decreed that Africa was backward. From then on, to the eyes of the scholar, the prehistorical facts of Africa were made to appear more recent in order for them explain a prior antiquity of Europe. Obviously, neither the Germaldi Man or the Combe-Capelle Man, both being Black, could have been indigenous to Europe. However, a chronological difficulty related to the limits of the stragraphical methods would not allow that these men originate form Africa.
Racial differentiation took place n Europe, probably in southern France and in Spain, at the end of the last Wurm galacition, between 40,000 and 20,000 years ago We understand now because of the above cited facts, why the first inhabitant of Europe was the Grimaldi Black man who was responsible for the first lithical industry of the European Upper Paleolithic period called Aurigiacain industry
Some believed they saw in the Lower Pergordian a strictly European industry anterior to the previous one, whose creator would have been truly indigenous to Europe, ass opposed to the Grimaldi Black invader. This refers to the Combe-Capelle Man." Cheikh Anta Diop
