1/1024 = native american minority status affirmative action jobs and political power victim status

That’s all you really need to know.

Since Lizzy Warren’s miniscule “Indian” DNA was based on sample by proxy of South Americans and Mexicans, does this mean she’s part aborigine?

Of course they sailed direct. Scientists can be more PC than anyone.

Race agendas aside, DNA studies really are ‘shaking up’ law enforcement. Google “dna arrested”.

One sample out of fifteen.

Sounds like a great case for contamination or error.

Fifteen samples is not much to build a continent wide case on.

sometimes interbreeding with local populations,


who came from where? Makes the whole of this ‘study’ a p[lea from more grant money. Everyone knows that American Indians were created here - a claim which forms the basis for their legal claims for superior rights and special master status in various venues.

migrating away from Mesoamerica (what is today Mexico and Central America) toward both North and South America.

Fascinating. Whoever thought back then that Watson’s and
Crick’s discovery would lead to all it has? Letting man
read pages of history we never thought we’d have access to.
Mind boggling. I love it!

Just sent off my Ancestry DNA kit. No guesses as to how it will turn out.

This population likely didn’t spend too much time in North America, eventually finding their way into South America

Reverse caravan?

“...the ancestors of Native Americans were still on the move, migrating away from Mesoamerica (what is today Mexico and Central America) toward both North and South America. These groups moved rapidly and unevenly, sometimes interbreeding with local populations...”

Sooo...the “local populations” with whom the “ancestors of Native Americans” interbred aren’t also ancestors of Native Americans?

“It’s highly unlikely that this population sailed from Australia or Indonesia to South America. Rather, this group likely trekked northward from their point of origin, venturing through China and Siberia. This population likely didn’t spend too much time in North America, eventually finding their way into South America, while leaving no genetic trace of their journey—aside from this lone specimen in Lagoa Santa.”

That makes perfect sense.

On a more serious note, I wonder what impelled the ones who did come in from the north to keep moving south, or for that matter, east. If it was population expansion, seems like there would have been more for the archeologists to find. Or maybe not.

So Aussies could be the Native Americans?

“this individual lived around 10,400 years ago in what is now Brazil”

They called themselves the “BumBum People”.

“It’s highly unlikely that this population sailed from Australia or Indonesia to South America. Rather, this group likely trekked northward from their point of origin, venturing through China and Siberia.”

Considering we know they were a maritime people that sailed the open Pacific ocean at least as far as Easter Island, I would think that it would actually be more likely that a few of them sailed over to South America and got stranded than that they trekked all the way in the completely opposite direction of their usual migrations to go through Alaska.

why not? But what is closer is the Western Sahara in Africa (Morocco/Cape Verde). Or Iberian Peninsula (Phoenicians) skirting the African coast to Brazil. And what about Antarctica? If Africa was a moderate tropical paradise eons ago, maybe that island chain leading north from western Antarctica was habitable, too? Were they Antarcticians, frozen out by climate change? were they Phoenicians? And then consider that the Mayan gods who came from the sea from the east were blond, blue-eyed individuals who returned to the sea...

Curious, this study coming out after Warren’s DNA shows Central and South American relationship.
Could this Study have been released to justify her Native American Claim?
