Half from the monarch 4,000 years ago. Every man in Europe from a guy 190,000 years ago.
“The survival of DNA will always be a random process”
Only partly true. For successful horndogs like this monarch, it’s not random as to the next generation. If he has 200 sons, subsequent randomness will favor his genes over a randomly selected guy in his generation.
Also, if his success and abilities are partly inherited by those sons, or passed on by the fact they are a king’s kid, his sons would also have a reproductive advantage for their, and therefore his, genes.
And, he may have just had good genes. Smarter, stronger etc. Or just really good looking. So their survival would be favored in a natural selection process.
Droit du Seigneur at work?
I think Ghengis Khan got the other half of the world.
The Bronze Age King invented the 4 wheeled horse drawn chariot with a back seat which was, BTW, the only one in Europe, known as the Mercedes-Bender, thus allowing make-outs at every drive-in Stone Henge. This increased the population overnight, as it were, and his horses were very very fast.
Yup.
That guy.
:D
Sean Connery was not only an Immortal and a Freemason he also flew around in a stone head delivering rifles to the savages.
The Taiwan story is yet another indicator of sea travel a long way back.
Would also like to know how old the jaw found by the fishermen is.
Half of Euro men descended from one guy in an age where travel was so difficult and folks spread out in little villages?
Color me dubious.
Traveling would allow you to visit a number of different settlement to "spread your seed" either by commerce, seduction or just hospitality.
They were not stupid back then and understood inbreeding was not a good thing. This would be a simple way of getting new male blood into your settlement without the social risk of accepting a new male who might become dominate.
People lived a lot longer, way back then :)
For successful horndogs like this monarch, it’s not random as to the next generation.The problem is, "this monarch" isn't actually known to have existed, making your statement a tautology. If a tomb had been found, containing the remains of someone (even an unknown) who was buried in something reasonably construed as a royal fashion, and his DNA was still in good enough shape to test, AND that turned out to be the DNA they're talking about, that's just fine.
Probably those cave paintings are just pictographic versions of traveling salesman jokes.
“But father, I don’t like her.”
“Don’t like her? What’s wrong with her? She’s beautiful, she’s rich, she’s got huuuuuge tracts of land...”
Bronze Age Horndogs, another good band name. ;’)
:’)
PIF: “And still other tests show fully modern humans at 250,000 years ago ..”
Much depends on which tests and how exactly you define those words “fully modern”.
Just for example: I would call my children “fully modern”, myself more like stone-aged Neanderthal.
;-)
Zenta: “...if you are able to digest information objectively, I recommend it.”
I’d call your link-site anything but “objective”.
And am pretty sure some of those articles have ended up as Free Republic threads, where they get rather thoroughly picked apart.
I never suggested the website I linked was objective.
Quite the opposite. I suggested the “reader” needs to be objective.
If I may add this.
Evolution, as a theory, has been in crisis for many years now.
Their tactics read like mirror images of the “Global Warming” crowd. This is something that any objective person should find at least a bit curious.
For the Evolutionist, they are left with “Panspermia” as their only out.
Panspermia comes with its own set of very serious problems.
Here’s another website for the Objective reader; http://www.uncommondescent.com/
LOL
It wasn’t just polygamy that helped, but concubinage. Kings of Siam, Turkey and others had hundreds of concubines and wives. I’m not sure that thy coming of the “Aryans”is entirely mythical. Something major happened to Europe around that time and it came from the East.
