Cool story.
This isn’t going to sit well with todays tranny culture.
Ancestral Adam was found in 1995, when a separate study on male ancestry examined the Y-chromosome, passed directly from father to son. Science published the results of a study in which a segment of the Y-chromosome from 38 men from different ethnic groups were analyzed for variation.
Their conclusion was that every man alive today actually descended from a single man whom scientists now refer to as Y-Chromosomal Adam.

This will cause a lot of heads to explode!!!
Bfl
So science edges closer to science and away from pseudoscience.
Lenin, in just about all of his pre-USSR writings, insisted that science was the antidote to religion. He’d be freaking out today if he heard this news.
Just imagine if she was pro choice...
The narrow gene pool was most likely caused by Toba.

Many thanks for posting !
Mitochondrial Eve and Y-Chromosomal Adam are not good candidates for Adam and Eve.
First, there isn’t any indication that they even lived in the same millennium, let alone actually met or mated. Secondly, the dates I’ve seen for them put them at tens and even hundreds of thousands of years ago, far earlier than the whole context of the Genesis text. Genesis is pretty solidly set in the Sumerian Neolithic (rivers of Tigris and Euphrates, farming & herding, very first cities like Erech), not in, say, Palaeolithic Africa.
Here are far more promising candidates if you want to look for an Adam and Eve who were actually together and fathered the entire human race.

So God created Adam with mud from the Nile?
If only ever wondered...who was Cain’s wife? Adam and Eve had other children but surely if one was a daughter, she could not (or should not) have been Cain’s wife. Was there another Garden somewhere?
If = I’ve
“Adam and Eve had other children but surely if one was a daughter, she could not (or should not) have been Cains wife.”
Why not?
Good one :D
When dna of the Adam line first came to be, there were no harmful mutations to multiply. Rules came when they were needed.
You ask the same question I have been asking all my life! No one comes up with a satisfactory answer. Another question I ask is how could the earth be created before the rest of the universe when it is billions of years younger, 10,000 years old according to a lot of people. Or how the sun stood still - and actually backed up! That’s why I have given up on religion. I just believe in who Washington described as Providence - The Creator. That’s why I consider myself a Diest and reject revealed religion.
The Creator’s rules are immutable otherwise all would be chaos.
