Not sure how you mean that..

If you're referring to the biblical Eve, no..

What I am referring to is the tracing of mtDNA to it's origins, or as close to them (as far back) as science is able to go..
The "origin" geneticists call Eve, and is referred to as the mother of us all..
That is, the only traceable source, or origin for those of us that live today..

IIRC, there is also a group called "the Seven Sisters" or something that are also considered primal ancestors of modern humanity..
All descendents of "Eve", naturally..

So Eve was really not Eve?

This is what I was referring to as well. Just wondered if you knew who was the earliest human that has been identified recently. Last I heard it was "Lucy".
