    Researchers in China have found evidence suggesting that 930,000 years ago there was a human population crisis...... It then shrank to fewer than 1,280 humans and stayed that small for 117,000 years.


    Genomic data from 3,154 modern humans suggests this

    Cheers Yorkie. This is a bit of a tricky one so I may have to help on the way. What did the Kingdom of Yemen do which was directly contrary to Tsar Peter the Great and Henry VIII ?

    Clues needed here ? Henry VIII and Peter the Great had something in common - something which would have bothered me as a young man, but no longer. I would now be more bothered (costly for my purse) by the ruling in the Kingdom of Yemen (1936). In Afghanistan the question is a handfull or not a handfull.
