The Bradshaw Foundation have a fantastic animation which depicts the migration of humans over the past 160,000 years.

It is the result of work by scientist Stephen Oppenheimer and is based on mitochondrial DNA, Y chromosome evidence, archaeology, climatology, and fossil study and tracks the routes and timing of our migration out of Africa and around the globe.

I think it’s fascinating, have a look.
