Bryan Sykes said this quote

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.

~ Bryan Sykes

DNA is the messenger which illuminates that connection,handed down from generation to generation,carried,literally,in the bodies of my ancestors.

~ Bryan Sykes

Myths have a very long memory.

~ Bryan Sykes

Oral myths are closer to the genetic conclusions than the often ambiguous scientific evidence of archaeology.
