Good article.

I had expected to see the Olmecs on the list.

I read that Caucasians were the FIRST humans in the Americas. They were the mammoth hunters.
They dug great pits then would drive the beasts into the pit. Then the men would kill the beast in the pit. Not all of those men made it out of the pit.
Human remains were found in those pits. The skulls were OVAL shaped, thus they were Caucasian.
Oriental Asians had/have ROUND skulls. Thus the Siberian hunter groups who migrated over the Bering Straits were the second human population on the American continents.

I suppose it doesn't matter but it used to annoy me hearing the din of "native" Americans all the time. American Indians are of Oriental origin.

Another measurement is acetaldehyde dehydrogenase deficiency which happens when Oriental Asians, "American Indians," drink alcohol. Oriental Asians, including "American Indians," get that "flush"; other racial groups do NOT, thus proving their Oriental Asian descent.

Indian, Pakistanis, Afghanistanis and other Asian Causasians do NOT have the acetaldehyde dehydrogenase deficiency.

Oh well.

I started to read this rather interesting article, but then I came across the snide hit against Trump and lost interest. When someone cannot keep their politics out of a story like this, I have to wonder what other manipulations they are writing.

Norway owes half of their genetic makeup to this group. However, they also traveled east—reaching as far as the Altai Mountains. The Yamnaya might be responsible for things we now consider European, such as the ability to drink milk. Prior to the Bronze Age, 90 percent of Europeans were lactose intolerant. Yamnaya have the highest incidence of the mutation that allows milk digestion.

No Yamnaya, No Dairy Queen.

One of the waves was from the Battlestar Galactica when they sent the crew down to the surface.

Interesting...I wonder if Kennewick man DNA has mystery genes, too. Pre Columbian Americans? Maybe...

Not clicking that. Post the whole list.

Ramapough Mountain People

Used to be spelled "Ramapo" (I guess they got the "ugh" when they were recognized as Indians) and considered "tri-racial isolates."

Pure blooded Indians are very rare on the East Coast, so it's not surprising that their ancestry was mixed.
