Richard G. Klein
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Richard G. Klein (born April 11, 1941) is a Professor of Anthropological Sciences at Stanford University. He is the Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Professor in the School of Humanities and Sciences. He earned his Ph.D. at the University of Chicago in 1966. He was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in April of 2003. His research interests include paleoanthropology, Africa, and Europe. His primary thesis is that modern humans evolved in East Africa some 100,000 years B.P. and, starting 50,000 years B.P., began spreading throughout the non-African world, replacing archaic human populations over time.
