While previous investigations concentrated on mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), that due to strictly matrilineal inheritance and subsequent vulnerability to genetic drift is of limited value to disprove interbreeding, more recent investigations have access to growing strings of deciphered nuclear DNA (nDN...

Folks, I beg your collective pardons here. I am a pure layman on this subject, so please bare with me. To summarize what I understand of this thread thus far. The argument regarding the advancement (or lack there of) of HN. If I am not mistaken, in this thread it has been argued that HN could not th...

ROFL!!! We are definitely related!!!

At the risk of being thought a troll, here is my 12th and final post…..at least for a few hours. My wife is getting a bit upset with me. So I’ll make this short...sort of. We did the local, but I could not get my mind off the discussions here. So we came home early. I think the reason we look into t...

Hi Mut. Here are my yDNA markers as received a year ago: DYS19 / 394 = 14 (Match) DYS385a = 11 DYS385b = 14 DYS388 = 12 (Match) DYS389i = 13 (Match) DYS389ii = 29 DYS390 = 25 DYS391 = 12 (Yours is 11) DYS392 = 13 DYS393 / 395 = 13 DYS426 = 12 DYS437 / 457 = 15 (Yours is 14) DYS438 = 12 (Yours is 13...

It seems that I was premature in my statement about the Terry Jones Documentaries on google.
I have heard that is a problem among men my age, but I have yet to confirm that

oops, forgot the link.....here it is:

Sorry D/B. Maybe you need to meet some different women. :wink: Seriously, I question the validity of these matriarchal societies you reference in your post. Matriarchies are the exception, not the rule through out the animal kingdom and there is very little evidence of matriarchal human socieites w...

There is just to many of us, and there has been for a Very long time. Which raises one very good question. What now? Well, I don't believe the world has been overpopulated with humans that long. http://www.worldhistorysite.com/population.html The population at the end of the Pleistocene was about 4...

It would seem that history has the answer, or at least one that makes sense to me. Not long ago I watched a documentary called God, Guns and Germs. The root message was that Civilizations that travel laterally are more successful then those that travel vertically due to two reasons. 1. Similar Eco s...

Thanks Digit

[/Hi Mut. So you are likely yDNA R1b1c something or other. Can you give me your particular sub-clade beyond that designation? I am the same yDNA haplotype with a U5a mtDNA. Makes me a CroMagnon, the closest thing to a Neanderthal you'll see (my friends and enemies would agree) In other words, hi cou...

Hi Mut - welcome to the forum. I am no geneticist but perhaps your Halpotype is revealing that a female on your mother's side "got around". :shock: Too bad genetic testing can't reveal the identity of my 7g-grandfather who immigrated to New England circa 1700. Genetics is one kind of scie...

http://www.dnaancestryproject.com/ I recently joined this site and have found some rather startling results regarding my strand. I am not hawking it, but I thought it relevent to the thread. I am of the R haplotype from my paternal line that covers most of Indoeurope, and the Celtic Isles. But inter...

Greetings friends, apologies in advance for the lengthy post. I have just logged for the first time, thanks to some help from one of your wonderful Mods. I am here for two reasons. One is, I am researching a work of fiction that I have been itching to write for a long time. As part of this, I have b...
