65 million years - second dinosaur extinction
4.4 million years - oldest ancestor of human/ape found
1.3 million years - oldest human ancestor found
70,000 years - only a few thousands fo humans on the planet
- heading for extinction
15,000 years - agriculture starts
5,000 years - writing starts

Read about Toba catastrophe
satya - Saturday, October 03, 2009 9:46:36 AM
The event
To give an idea of its magnitude, consider that although the eruption took place in Indonesia, it deposited an ash layer approximately 15 centimetres thick over the entire Indian subcontinent; at one site in central India, the Toba ash layer today is up to 6 metres thick and parts of Malaysia were covered with 9 m of ashfall.[12] In addition it has been calculated that one hundred million metric tons of sulphuric acid was ejected into the atmosphere by the event, causing acid rain fallout.

how do you know...
Genetic evidence suggests that all humans alive today, despite apparent variety, are descended from a very small population, perhaps between 1,000 to 10,000 breeding pairs about 70,000 years ago
