“ Myths have a very long memory. ”
...Once again confirms that there is no such thing as genetically pure classification into different races.
~ Bryan Sykes
We are all a complete mixture;yet at the same time,we are all related.Each gene can trace its own journey to a different common ancestor.This is a quite extraordinary legacy that we all have inherited from the people who lived before us.Our genes did not just appear when we were born.They have been carried to us by millions of individual lives over thousands of generations.
DNA is the messenger which illuminates that connection,handed down from generation to generation,carried,literally,in the bodies of my ancestors.
Oral myths are closer to the genetic conclusions than the often ambiguous scientific evidence of archaeology.
