    Yes … but a human looking homo sapien from 300,000 years ago would not be able to understand our world today or be capable of imagining and thinking like we do. They might have looked like us but they didn’t think like us … that cognitive development didn’t happen until about 50,000-60,000 years ago. I’m no expert but in all the reading I’ve done, our modern selves and people that think, act and imagine like us didn’t exist until about 50,000 years ago.
