A Native American man in Montana has what may be the oldest DNA native to the Americas, according to news reports.

After getting his DNA tested, Darrell "Dusty" Crawford learned that his ancestors were already in the Americas about 17,000 years ago, according to the Great Falls Tribune, a Montana newspaper.

On Ancient Aliens they interviewed Native Americans and the firm reply to where did their ancestors come from was “the stars.”

Don’t know if they laughed later and said “And those guys with the cameras bought it. What idiots.”

17,000 years ago. Long before the bears and wolves, on those areas covered by the ice sheets...

Bernie’s belief is he descended from the genes of Karl Marx.
Or he’d call him “Kawl Mahhx.”

The company Cellular Research Institute (CRI) Genetics traced Crawford's ancestry back 55 generations with 99% accuracy

Seems legit.

I think he’s one of Warren’s cousins.....

Are you sure it isn't Nancy Pelosi's DNA? 😋

Thanks SteveH. Why, oh, why did I take so much time on mine?

[fieldmarshaldj]

Well, if you go back far enough, that’s not entirely incorrect. But more recent vintage of where they came from is, of course, Asia.

Has anyone used this DNA tracing company?

If so, how do you feel about it:

Are they implying incest???

Outrage coming soon.

[Grampa Dave]

Are they implying incest???

Maybe murder or worse.

Like stealing other people’s horses and cattle in the SW.

Either of those breaks with society often lead to the culprit getting hung.

Imagine the arrears Social Security payments he might put in for; could be trillions of dollars!

I love it. When I studied anthropology in the 80’s the “settled
Science claimed the earliest north Americans could be no earlier than 11.5 thousand yrs bp.

All suggesting earlier were quacks.

[Verginius Rufus]

It doesn't look like they say what his Y-DNA haplogroup is. For some American Indian populations, the vast majority of men belong to the Q haplogroup, which is found also in Siberia and in very low numbers in places in Europe. I don't belong to that group but some of my grandmother's ancestors did.

I did the CRI test a few years ago. Their ethnic breakdown was not very plausible.
