In modern times, men explored the New World. But 2 million years earlier, the men among our pre-human forerunners stayed put, and it was the women who traveled to start new families, a study of fossil teeth from Africa suggests.
The findings, published in Thursday's journal Nature, indicate females from two pre-human species seemed to move out of their birth homes and journey elsewhere, probably to prevent inbreeding, researchers said. Chimpanzees, our closest living primate relative, also have females that travel to mate and raise families.

Or they were kidnapped by males of opposing tribes. It's all speculation really.
