74,000 Years Ago Humanity Almost Went Extinct

74,000 years ago, a supervolcano called Toba erupted in Indonesia with a force so catastrophic it nearly erased humanity forever.

The sky darkened.
Temperatures collapsed.
Ecosystems died.

And according to genetic evidence, the human population may have dropped to just a few thousand survivors.

Every person alive today may descend from them.

But new archaeological evidence suggests humanity did not survive because of luck.

We survived because a small group of humans living along the southern coast of Africa had already adapted to a world falling apart.

While forests died and food chains collapsed, the ocean kept feeding them.

Shellfish.
Fish.
Coastal survival.

This is the story of the volcanic eruption that almost ended humanity —
and the people who somehow survived it.
