"'This uncertainty is due to limited fossil and ancient genomic data, and to the fact that the fossil record does not always align with expectations from models built using modern DNA.'"
"'This new research changes the origin of species.'"
New DNA research indicates that early humans developed from several interconnected groups across Africa, rather than a single isolated group. Researchers at UC-Davis studied genomes from the Nama people, revealing significant genetic diversity. Computer models showed that modern DNA is better explained by multiple early human groups that mixed over time. The earliest split among these populations occurred around 120,000 to 135,000 years ago, with ongoing gene exchange. Gaps in fossil and ancient DNA records contribute to uncertainties in understanding human origins.
