Not to worry; I have your back...until I desert. I also like Rohl & Fell...but like you, not totally without some reservations.
I would really like to see what is hidden off the coasts of India & Thailand. Or under the Black Sea.
The ancestors, they got around. ;') Here's something I've had around for a while, but posted it three times today already in some old topics (hence the Oetzi reference), and figured it would be nice in here too. :') Shrank the text in this one.
This diagram works for most people, but not for folks with Down's Syndrome and a few other conditions. F is for father, M for mother; each of us has up to 64 great-great-great-great-grandcestors; no more than 46 of them has had even one chromosome pair reach you; even with the occasional crossing stream, there's no more than 46, and with crossing streams, could be less.
For those who don't know, this doesn't mean the other 18 (and all of their ancestors, plus half of the ancestors of the 46) are not your ancestors -- DUH! IOW, just because the chromosomes don't make it through, doesn't mean that Oetzi (for example) has no living descendants.
