The topic is so complex and pretty EVERYTHING they were saying 20 years ago turned
out to be bogus. The only changes now are to the technology, [NOT] the ability of those
using the technology to discern the history behind the test results.
To unravel the mystery of human evolution we need to focus on the DNA that we don't
have, not the DNA that we do have.
That doesn't sound right but consider this:
The population that gave rise to Mungo man is far older than any so called "Mitochondrial
Eve," and that population has BILLIONS of people running around RIGHT NOW. But they
tell us the DNA is all gone. In fact, the only way we even know that it ever existed is
because of a freak mutation copying over mtDNA to Chromosome 11.
That's it. If it weren't for that one event, sheer happenstance, there'd be nothing to tell us
anyone is related to them, according to all the findings. Yet BILLIONS are.
So we're either in a position where EVERY population that has descendants remaining
today has copied mtDNA over to a chromosome, where we can find it, or we have to
conclude that our DNA testing is not telling us the story.
