“...A quote from an earlier Ann Gibbons article Jim.<br />“The researchers conclude that if you're an East Asian, you have three different Neandertals in your family tree; Europeans and South Asians have two, and Melanesians, only one. (Africans' ancestors, who did not mate with Neandertals, have none.)”.<br />I keep trying to fit this evidence into Time & Space to capture the journeys undertaken by these ancient people’s. That the necessary makings all took place outside Africa has to be a valid hypothesis. The only conclusion I can draw is that Neanderthals in all var.. evolved outside Africa at various locations in the Eurasian landmass. This mtDNA evidence may only apply to West European Neanderthals and as this mating occurred outside Africa how and where did this female arrive from. The newly found h.s.fossils from Morocco may be a better source for the lady than a continuing focus on the Middle East, we still have to explain how h.s. turned up in far North West Africa some 200k+ BP. I suspect ever more revolutionary findings are going to come over the next couple of decades.Johnbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09694479587834247002noreply@blogger.com
