DNA reignites Kennewick Man debate

Post by popsandme »

A long-running debate over an ancient skeleton known as Kennewick Man has been reignited.
The 9,000-year-old was claimed as an ancestor by Native Americans, who called for his remains to be reburied.
However, a group of anthropologists said the specimen's features were not similar to people from local tribes and won a legal bid to study the bones.
Now a genetic analysis has revealed his DNA is more closely related to modern Native Americans than to anyone else.

Personally i think Kennewick Man has a striking resemblance to the great Patrick Stewart and should be returned to him, can you tell them apart?

Very interesting read. I don`t think they need to delve to far with DNA etc though cos I think you have cracked it :g42: :g50:
