Most of the so-called archaic hominids, such as Neanderthal, Erectus, Denisovans, etc., were unnatural & biologically unsuccessful hybrids ~created by Homo Sapiens. That's why genetic remnants of various types of lower apes are found in many 'modern' Humans. Evidence of inter-species hybridization is found in a variety of distinctive types, which were historically concentrated continentally among some indigenous tribes; but now that Earth has become so populated, & with the aid of technology (transportation especially), we now have even more varied combinations of different genes within specific individuals and/or ethnic groups. Blood types, factors, & groups, give us some clues about the origins & chronologies of some of the most identifiable hybrids. In other words, I believe that humans were deliberately bred (by humans, not by aliens, lol) with various lower apes or Rhesus macaque monkeys, mostly in the regions where those animals are native, & at various times throughout the eras of very early agricultural development. Breeding and hybridization is/was of prime importance to agriculturalists, & often a great source of delight, pride, & satisfaction, to people experimenting with them.shenandoahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09220865518565583662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-85197592200695585212011-12-21T17:05:11.040+02:002011-12-21T17:05:11.040+02:00Here my proposal:

They were relatively pacific tribes, hunting, gathering and using coastal resources. This will explain why non-L3 hunter gatherers today do not train as warriors nor practice ritual fights (Moreno, 2011).<br /><br />Second, they spread along the eastern african coast towards the red sea, between africa and arabia, where L3 arises. The shape of the red sea, with its richness in seafood, provokes population growth along the coast on both sides of the red sea.<br /><br />Among the L3 haplotype a tribe of incipient warriors appears, probably as a cause of the increased population density, and this tribe of incipient warriors (M,N) spreads inside and outside of africa. This will explain why non-african hunter gatherers practice ritual fights and most of them train as warriors (Moreno, 2010,2011).Beastmanagerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11609302172726820503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-39787512361953104442011-12-21T03:06:44.782+02:002011-12-21T03:06:44.782+02:00"If these ancient peoples eventually died off..."If these ancient peoples eventually died off in Arabia, they would just be a failed migration out of Africa". <br /><br />Not necessarily so. They could well have died off in Arabia but, by that time, have moved far beyond that region. <br /><br />"These Middle Stone Age inhabitants of Arabia may not just be the ancestors only of everyone outside Africa, but of many within Africa itself". <br /><br />I agree. I am fairly sure the distribution of Y-DNA indicates E originated outside Africa. All its 'relations' are outside that continent. And several M and N haplogroups also look very likely to have moved into Africa. I'm yet to be convinced of your theory that L3 originated outside Africa though.terrythttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17327062321100035888noreply@blogger.com
