Hmmm... Media do tend to generalise -- When we say European, at any point in time, that would mean at least 3 different ethnic groups, ditto for the term Asian.
Hi blam.
Sound's like you see Gene Savoy as Alan Quatermain, and the Chachapoya ruins as Great Zimbabwe. Don't you think Savoy taps into those old adventure stories for self-promotion? It's not really original, and the King Solomon - Great Zimbabwe connection has been exposed as a racist denial of black African achievements.
Anyone else see this?
These guys claim to have built the Great Zimbabwe , The Lemba (Black Jews Of Southern Africa.)
An update. The PhD who was working on this DNA (and said they were 'European') has now said that the samples were contaminated with modern DNA. Someone else is working on the DNA project now.
