COVER Scientific reconstructions reveal the faces of 1.7-million-year-old male and female hominids from Dmanisi, Georgia. These people (considered to be either Homo ergaster or H. erectus) represent the first human migrants out of Africa. Their journey and those of other ancient humans are explored in the special section on human migrations and evolution. See page 1721
