Denisova Man is still probably making payments on it!

He could have purchased her for a few rabbit hides.

Ahhhh, well, I’ll tell ya. Everybody believes in conspiracy theories. LOL

Yeah, that’s the ticket!

Ping.

The Indians realized that it was more important to be able to eat meat and defend the tribe than to adorn with bling.

Note: this topic is from August 2017. Thanks TigerLikesRooster for posting it, and thanks rdl6989 for the ping. I did the DNA thing, and later ran my results through an archaic DNA gizmo, and found out that I share DNA with 45,000 year old Siberians, Paleo-Eskimos, the Kennewick Man (!), the Denisovans, and of course Neandertal. This may lead to my paying more attention to northern- and central Asian archaeology. :^)

No.

“....the Kennewick Man “

Hey cuz! j/k

[SunkenCiv]

No wonder I feel like living in a van down by the river...

How could native American Indians basically only know how to make an arrowhead, when this was being done 80,000 years ago?

How are there peoples in many of the 3rd world places that revert right back to near neolithic tech levels whenever left on their own?

So good to see you back. Made my day.

Did you get the 'high altitude' gene from the Denisovans as did the Tibetians?

It wasn’t that specific, I wonder if there’s a better breakdown available. I was curious about the supposed super-ancestors, like Niall of the Nine Hostages, Genghis Khan, etc.

[SunkenCiv]

Thanks!

Serious question? Serious answer: Something happened.

My guess is that a world wide catastrophe happened which pushed the “existing civilizations” towards extinction. It would explain why we are finding artifacts that are aged way further back than they should.

Imagine what would happen to us if a massive supervolcano blew up, blocking out the sun. Or if a comet or asteroid hit us.

Sure there would be many who lived for the remainder of their lives. But resources would dry up and it would take years to get back on track. Two or three generations hence would be moving back towards hunter gatherers because they would lack the technology to move the other way.

My guess is that this has happened over, and over, and over again.

Science Fiction is full of this stuff—mostly lifted from mythology and ancient stories.

Or did you not want an answer? :-)

[ConservativeMind]

You described what I thought, quite well. 🙂

What is your haplogroup?

The list of sequences unzips to over 18 megs.
