Inspection of these plots gives you an idea of why Clusters Galore works so well. It can detect "clusteredness" of individuals along multiple dimensions. It does not look at a series of 2D plots, but it considers proximity of individuals to each other along multiple dimensions, and adapts to the shape, size, and orientation of the clusters.

There is said to be less variation in the entire human race than in a typical group of 50 African monkeys of the same species, indicating a very recent bottleneck of some sort for the human race. Of such variation as there is, the major divide is East/West and not North/South, i.e. the black and white races are genetically closer to each other than either is to the yellow. That’s probably because Semitic, Hamitic, and Japhetic (IE) peoples are actually descended from Noah and his sons while East Asians survived the flood on mountain tops and anything which could float for a year or so, as per their own literature.
That makes East Asians and Europeans equally descended from one group of Africans.
That group itself is somewhat removed from the other African groups.
The solution to the Amer-Indian conundrum is simply that North American Indians have a degree of European ancestry from a single group dating back about 14,000 years. Try:http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1199377/
I didn't find any mention of the Sa'ami in this study ~ that's a shame since they appear to have been the first inhabitants of Scandinavia.
Nope an earlier post has them sneaking into Greece.
That's not a theory ~ that's a recipe!
Those heathens will eat anything

I looked up She, and found them in China speaking a Hmong-mien language. Are these the same Hmong who helped our special troops in the mountains of Vietnam?
In any consideration of the splite in human subgroups, one must think about the possible impact of the great Toba megavolcano 74,000 years ago. Which way did the major ash fall go, what areas of the world suffered the most from several years of “nuclear winter”? These and related factors must have had a big impact if the human population was reduced to no more than 5 or 10,000 people as some scientists propose to explain the lack of genetic variability.
Self-ping for genetics, clusters.
