In his interview to Yemeni newspaper “As-Siyasiia” Dr. Vitaly Naumkin, a famous Russian Orientalist and Head of the Russian archeological expedition conducted on Socotra last year, stated that the findings evidence that the island had been first settled about 600,000 years ago. The scientist believes that it is one more mystery connected with the history of beginnings of human civilization.
