In my point of view, I believe the most plausible reasoning behind our existence is the theory of evolution.

Fossils show that both early dinosaurs and neanderthals have been found in the same sedimentary rock. The sedimentary rock allows scientists to study fossils in all of the different layers of rock, each layer holding fossils millions of years apart. The “cave dwellers” were founded above the early dinosaurs in the rock layers. This actual evidence shows that mankind could not have been placed at the same time period as the other
