    Spring-Loaded Heels Gave Extra Step to Homo Sapiens(as opposed to Neandertals)

    Spring-Loaded Heels Gave Extra Step to Early Homo Sapiens Perhaps this is why modern African atheletes dominate most Marathon length running events. Since they do not have any Neandertal DNA and modern European and Asians do?

    Compare Y-DNA and autosomal DNA admixtures : the Indians, Turks and Iberians

    I wonder if the amount of Sub-Saharan DNA found in Portugal is a remnant from Portugal's long history of exploration and colonies in Africa? Or exchange of African DNA from Brazil?

    Mediterraneans want to be liked, Northern Europeans prefer not to be disliked

    In my professional life I guess I have a sort of "stuffy" attitude about some things. I like doing a good complete job, I like giving my customers the best service I can, I like making sure I always do the right thing and I try not to be confrontational but I don't hedge my opinion when asked...

    Characteristics of Haplogroups??

    Characteristics of Haplogroups??

    Our general charateristics are determined by our autosomal DNA and not our mtDNA or Y DNA haplogroup. Two individuals can have identical mtDNA and Y DNA markings and look completely different as far as eye, hair and skin color, along with other physical attributes.

    Black Sea deluge theory & the Indo-European homeland

They have been able to date the age of the "Great Flood" by dating the age of fresh water mussels found...
