Yeah. And DNA would prove that mother and preborn child are two separate individuals too, but our courts choose to ignore it.
You mean people dispersed from the Middle East? Like it says in the Bible after the confusion of languages at the tower of Babel?
What a shock.
They had good strong bones.

It is amazing to think of burial practices 15,000 years ago.
okay as I read the snip I pondered something...if its the oldest DNA found, how the hell do they know where it came from!??
Well, people were fully human then, and had be for tens of thousands of years.
Make that “had been”.

Mozart wuz black, y'all..!!
Malice is dead? I didn’t even know he was sick!
Malice as well as forethought.
That may have been a really lame joke?
History n sh*t, nome sayin'..?!
Straight up BLACK, aigt...?
They really assume a lot when they put out these articles.
Things to ponder:
What was the shape and boundaries of the Mediterranean Sea at the time of that burial?
Those old cave paintings in Spain and France - did they feature pictures of this dead person? Or her pet woolly mammoth?
Was there a natural bridge over today’s Strait of Gibraltar at that time?
How do the claims that Sahara Desert was once covered with vegetation either support, or disprove these dates and claims?
AND
How did people even survive to adulthood without a government to protect them from the dangers of the world at that time? /s
Why did the hospital emergency room refuse to treat this person? /s
someone has to ask the tough questions
well actually the article talks about two movements out of Africa - one via Israel-theLevant and the other via Morocco to Spain. We know that many proto-Europeans (pre-Indo-Europeans) were based in Spain and Acquitania
they weren't aub-Saharan African in general but there were doubtless some citizens from Caracalla's time onwards who had some sub-saharan African blood and even East Asian blood
The black and white dichtomy is daft, the Romans only cared if you were a citizen or not.
I must be an albino.
