the search engine at The Cell website is a POS, the result I got was this:

Complete Mitochondrial Genome Sequence of the Tyrolean Iceman
Luca Ermini et al

The Tyrolean Iceman was a witness to the Neolithic–Copper Age transition in Central Europe 5350–5100 years ago, and his mummified corpse was recovered from an Alpine glacier on the Austro-Italian border in 1991 [1]. Using a mixed sequencing procedure based on PCR amplification and 454 sequencing of pooled amplification products, we have retrieved the first complete mitochondrial-genome sequence of a prehistoric European. We have then compared it with 115 related extant lineages from mitochondrial haplogroup K. We found that the Iceman belonged to a branch of mitochondrial haplogroup K1 that has not yet been identified in modern European populations. This is the oldest complete Homo sapiens mtDNA genome generated to date. The results point to the potential significance of complete-ancient-mtDNA studies in addressing questions concerning the genetic history of human populations that the phylogeography of modern lineages is unable to tackle.

"purchase it for $31.50" my ass.

The vikings were here first! Or maybe the romans.

This opinion conflicts with much older artifacts and buildings found in South America, that by all appearances are about 60,000 years old, and rather technologically advanced, as well.

My ancestors crossed the Siberian land bridge and all I got was this lousy T-shirt!

From the article:

Their results show that the haplogroup called D4h3 spread from Beringia into the Americas along the Pacific coastal route, rapidly reaching Tierra del Fuego. The other haplogroup, X2a, spread at about the same time through the ice-free corridor between the Laurentide and Cordilleran Ice Sheets and remained restricted to North America.

To this I think we can add haplotype A01 as one of the founding groups associated with the early migration along the Pacific coast.

[Bernard Marx]

" A dual origin for the first Americans is a striking novelty from the genetic point of view and makes plausible a scenario positing that within a rather short period of time, there may have been several entries into the Americas from a dynamically changing Beringian source," the researchers concluded.

Yeah, such a "striking novelty" that it was proposed by many laymen such as me over 30 years ago. It's nice that DNA can finally prove us right and prove wrong the Clovis Luddites. It's the only explanation (to date) that accords with the fact of mature societies in South and Meso America (coastal migration) and less-developed ones northward (overland migration).

There was clearly a continuing series of explorations and movement into this hemisphere over 20,000 years or so. People with boats skirted the ice sheets and headed for the Stone Age Riviera.

BTTT!
