• DNA: Another wakeup call

    : How many generations back is 3% ethnicity in your DNA
    : test results?

    Some people are reported to have up to 4% Neanderthal
    and/or up to 6% Denisovan...

    The worse part? This explanation only BEGINS to spell out
    the issues! Like, when a more recent ancestor to that 8th
    generation grandfather marries another more recent ancestor
    of that 8th generation ancestor...

    Communities used to be pretty close knit. I've heard it said
    that railroads changed the genetic makeup of villagers
    because suddenly people could reach & marry others outside
    their immediate area.

    Seems like war would have accomplished this starting
    thousands of years ago.
