Answer:

Africa

Explanation:

Africa by land area, is the second largest continent.

It covers a land area of about 11,608,000 square miles. <em>This is next to Asia in land area,  which covers a land area of 17,212,000 square miles.</em>

Based on historical and archaeological evidence, humans  have lived in Africa for more than 5 million years. This earned Africa the name "Mother Continent".

The first hominins <em>(primates which can be considered as directly ancestral to humans )</em> in Africa emerged about  6-7 million years ago, and among the earliest anatomically modern human skulls found so far were discovered at Ethiopia
