Scientists believe our ancestral homeland is south of the Zambezi River in the country's north. The conclusion comes after the study of maternal genetic lineage of anatomically modern humans, finding it was closest to those living in the area, which includes northern Botswana, Namibia to the west and Zimbabwe to the east. For 70,000 years, our ancestors thrived in the area before changes in climate turned what was Africa's largest lake into what is now the Kalahari Desert. This forced the population to migrate elsewhere between 130,000 and 110,000 years ago. It also sparked the development of their genetic, ethnic and cultural diversity, the researchers said. The first group to the northeast, the second to the southwest and the third remained in the area. The southwest group, in contrast to the northeast group, seemed to do well, possibly because they were able to adapt to marine foraging. The group that remained eventually adapted to the drier land and their maternal descendants can still be found in the Kalahari region today. Professor Vanessa Hayes, from the Garvan Institute of Medical Research and University of Sydney, and extraordinary professor at the University of Pretoria, led the study. She said blood samples from volunteers in South Africa and Namibia allowed researchers to compare the DNA code - mitogenome - which she described as "like a time capsule of our ancestral mothers, accumulating changes slowly over generations". She added: "It has been clear for some time that anatomically modern humans appeared in Africa roughly 200,000 years ago. "What has been long debated is the exact location of this emergence and subsequent dispersal of our earliest ancestors."

Eros, in Greek religion, god of love. In the Theogony of Hesiod (fl. 700 bce), Eros was a primeval god, son of Chaos, the original primeval emptiness of the universe, but later tradition made him the son of Aphrodite, goddess of sexual love and beauty, by either Zeus (the king of the gods), Ares (god of war and of battle), or Hermes (divine messenger of the gods). Eros was a god not simply of passion but also of fertility. His brother was Anteros, the god of mutual love, who was sometimes described as his opponent. The chief associates of Eros were Pothos and Himeros (Longing and Desire). Later writers assumed the existence of a number of Erotes (like the several versions of the Roman Amor). In Alexandrian poetry he degenerated into a mischievous child. In Archaic art he was represented as a beautiful winged youth but tended to be made younger and younger until, by the Hellenistic period, he was an infant. His chief cult centre was at Thespiae in Boeotia, where the Erotidia were celebrated. He also shared a sanctuary with Aphrodite on the north wall of the Acropolis at Athens. See also Cupid.
