Thanks.

I just posted this similar article a little while ago.

Seafood Was Spur For Man's First Migration

I think blam already posted this.

"These lineages are 42,000 to 63,000 years old, the geneticists say. Subgroups of the Orang Asli, like the Semang, have probably been able to remain intact because they adapted to the harsh existence of living in forests, said Dr. Stephen Oppenheimer, the member of the geneticists' team who collected blood samples in Malaysia.

Here is a link to Oppenheimer's excellent migratory map, Journey Of Mankind

Tiger, I was about to post this article. Thank you for not unnecessarily excerpting a NY Times article. It's one of the Times' few virtues.

FReepmail me if you want on or off my health and science ping list.

I suspect some dogs went with them.

Was this the time frame that Mt. Tambora blew?

Thanks for the ping!

What a great map! I saw your reference on another thread to some books by Oppenheimer. I'll have to look them up. Thanks.

Thanks for the ping...very interesting. (And I still haven't gotten the answer from the genographic site on my cheek scraping).

sigh, typical evolutionist "just so" stories.

According to these evIlutionists, all humans on Earth are related by a common ancestor. But this is only their wild-guess assumption, they have no evidence.

Think about it. They believe the races came about by random chance and chaos?? LOL no way! The races are too complex and ordered to come about by chance. The Europeans, Africans, Asians, South Americans, etc must all have been created by an intelligent designer as seperate kinds. All were created fully formed.

Noone has ever seen a new race evolve, even though scientists have been trying to do it in labs for decades! The reason is because the evolution of a new race requires an increase of information which is disproven by the 2nd law of thermodynamics.

Genetic similarities between races are NOT evidence of common descent! They are equally evidence of COMMON DESIGN!

What gets me is some Creationists accept this rubbish and think all races share a common ancestor with some "Adam and Eve". Can't they see that this is a materialist-atheism belief as it denies God-creation of the races in favour of the religion of random nature-chance?

I just checked my number -- all they can confirm is that they've received the sample. It's probably gonna be at least another month before I know anything.
