What are you asking? Homo sapiens are people. The Oxford English dictionary meaning is "the species to which cutting-edge people belong" I dont understand, you tell me, did all human being originate in africa?

Yes, that is what scientists think.
"Large-scale genetic research carried out by Russian and American scientists have proved that contemporary mankind originated from a very small group of people. Common ancestors have been discovered for the entire population of many billions inhabiting all five continents of the Earth: these are two thousand primeval hunters-gatherers who used to live in Africa more than 100,000 years ago."
Of course, there are those who do not accept this. See http://www.nsfc.gov.cn/e_nsfc/desktop/zn/cg/ddqq_013.htm
And here is a paper on the subject.

That's what they say. Then, I wonder who lived in Mesopotamia, where the Bible says the first people were from...hmmm. It's all so confusing!
