Cann and Allan C. Wilson believe there is genetic studies revealing that a woman by the name of Eve was our common ancestor less than 200,000 years ago through Mitochondrial DNA only be inherited by the mother, binding modern humans with past imagines together is more recent years. In this article they use the molecular clock as a means of measurement which at the time seemed to appeared extremely flawed. While paleontologists based most of their findings solely on mitochondrial DNA, they contradicted themselves by sharing fossil records that showed archaic humans in southern eurasia who have migrated from Africa millions of years ago. In the Multiregional Evolution of Humans, by Alan G. Thorne and Milford H. Wolpoff the authors believe that our ancient ancestors could be found in different regions of the world some living where they were found today. The article goes on refute the idea that Mitochondrial DNA may play a sufficient role in the development of modern humans because that would mean that each woman must have a daughter in order to share My Codral DNA. In the same article the author says that traces of migration from Africa into a different regions of the world happened almost 2 million years ago due to fossil evidence such as Ramapithecus, an extinct anthropoid ape known for remains found in East Asia. The authors continue to provide a vast amount of proven facts regarding the migration of modern …show more content…
In a continued lecture about Neanderthals Professor David Zeanah introduces us to the background of DNA and the findings found in homo sapiens DNA. During lecture he gives the textbook definition of Ancient DNA; a genetic material preserved in archaeological remains of bones and plants that can be studied for information about past genetic relationships. When looking into Neanderthals DNA we find that it is different than ares and they seemed to have been living in a different place than we were at the time. Professor Zeanah shows evidence of a pinky bone that was found in a cave in southern sybria, after DNA testing it was pronounced the pinky of a girl that was a completely different species. In an article by Michael Marshall, titled Mystery relations, he introduces a hominin that we didn 't even know existed but had been on earth for quite some time, the Denisovans. In the article there is a piece of inform that stood out. The author begins by saying the Denisovans cave could be home of neanderthals and early modern humans. Findings then should that Denisovans were a sister group to the Neanderthals more than 600,000 years ago. The author then goes to show that Deviations split from Neanderthals 200,000 years after they found out Denisovans were a sister group. According to the
