The mingling of some of the migrating Sangik tribes with the Neanderthal peoples led to the immediate improvement of the older race.

There are many good and sufficient reasons for the plan of evolving either three or six colored races on the worlds of space. Urantia mortals may not be in a position fully to appreciate all of these reasons; however, for example, consider that homogeneity of the human race is not desirable until the peoples of an evolving world attain comparatively high levels of spiritual development.

Five hundred thousand years ago, among the Badonan tribes of the northwestern highlands of India, there was a new and strange occurrence. A man and woman living in the northeastern part of the then inhabited highland region began ''suddenly'' to produce a family of unusually intelligent children. This was the ''Sangik family'', the ancestors of all of the six colored races of Urantia. The reading encompassed Paper 64:5.1-6.16, p. 722

Besides the Foxhall peoples in the west, another struggling center of culture persisted in the east. This group was located in the foothills of the northwestern Indian highlands among the tribes of Badonan, a great-great-grandson of Andon. Their campaign for the extermination of inferiors brought about an improved stock, appearing on the stage of action as an apparently new people—the ''Neanderthal race''.

The human race is almost one million years old, and the first half of its story roughly corresponds to the pre-Planetary Prince days of Urantia. The latter half of the history of mankind begins at the time of the arrival of the Planetary Prince and the appearance of the six colored races and roughly corresponds to the period commonly regarded as the Old Stone Age, that is, the Paleolithic.

As the Andonic dispersion extended, the cultural and spiritual status of the clans retrogressed for nearly ten thousand years until the days of Onagar, who assumed the leadership of these tribes, brought peace among them, and for the first time, led all of them in the worship of the “Breath Giver to men and animals.” Onagar was born in 981,390 B.C., and he lived to be sixty-nine years of age.

Primitive man—the Andonites—had black eyes and a swarthy complexion, something of a cross between yellow and red. Melanin is a coloring substance which is found in the skins of all human beings. It is the original Andonic skin pigment. The Andonites were the first creatures to use the skins of animals as a protection against cold; they had little more hair on their bodies than present-day humans.

In many respects, Andon and Fonta were the most remarkable pair of human beings that have ever lived on the face of the earth. This wonderful pair, the actual parents of all mankind, were in every way superior to many of their immediate descendants. And especially was their quality of mind far above that of the later descendants who stooped to mate with their retarded cousins of the simian tribes. The reading encompassed Paper 63:1-3, p. 711

It is just 993,498 years ago (from the year A.D. 2024) that Urantia was formally recognized as a planet of human habitation in the local universe of Nebadon. Biologic evolution had once again achieved the human levels of will dignity; man had arrived on planet 606 of the local system of Satania. And hence there was an immediate and new order of mobilization of the seven adjutant mind-spirits. The reading encompassed Paper 62:6-63:0, p. 709
