[Aztlan] GENETICISTS FIND STRONG SUPPORT FOR A SINGLE GROUP PEOPLING THE AMERICAS

[michael ruggeri]

Listeros,


Flying in the face of recent theories on the peopling of the  
Americas, a group of geneticists at the University of Michigan  
working with geneticists worldwide are now positing that the Americas  
were populated from one group of people in East Asia. They studied 29  
Native American groups across North, Central and South America and  
two Siberian groups.

A unique genetic variant is widespread in populations across the  
Americas suggesting a single wave of migration or multiple waves from  
the same place. They say that the genetic variant would not be so  
widespread if the migration was from different sources. The only  
other place this genetic variant is found is in Siberia. It also  
appears that the likely peopling of the Americas by this group is by  
a coastal route.

They found that populations in Central America and the Andes show  
genetic similarity.
