In the last 50,000 years 33 genera of large mammals have gone extinct in N.A. alone. Of these 15 were annihilated in a period of approx 1,500 years that coincides with the arrival of the Clovis People. Small mammals were spared; harder to grill. Consequently they've developed into the stunning array of rodents we see before us here in the US, from Deer to doormice.
Cro Magnons appear in Europe around 40,000BCE. Neandertals disappeared around 22,000BCE.
You're looking at what, the end of the paleolithic/beginning of the neolithic?
Let me just tell you that you picked the absolute worst time period. The Neolithic Revolution saw one of the more interesting explosions of evolution ever seen. Evolution has never had a more productive employee than man. Evolution is just the process by which what is left alive has offspring and what is not does not. Again, evolution is observed fact. Do you have a theory that would explain the mechanism behind the observed fact of evolution?
I know what has you hung up. You have absolutely no understanding of Taxonomy. Things don't "change" from species to species, they make significant revisions and are so called new "somethings". You are still a chordate, still a mammal, still a primate.

You're also surprisingly uneducated.
