[QUOTE]Originally posted by astenb: [QB] You are absolutely correct. I guess i should rephrase what I am trying to say: Keita is only preaching to the EDUCATED choir. I guess I am unsure if they pulled this DIRECTLY from things he has written OR if this is is paraphrased from his previous works. I couldn't tell if they were Quoting him or paraphrasing. I am also thinking of a video entitled "What Genetics Tells Us" where he was also soft and spoke to an educated audience. I guess we should expect nothing less..............But unless this is broken down for a dummy to understand the status quo stays the same as it is now: Egypt = African in educated circles. Egypt = Non-African in non educated and social circles. PRIME EXAMPLE : Even in educated circles. I searched "Africa" on the Cambridge site where the Keita videos are listed. [b]Why did advanced material civilizations not first develop in Africa[/b] [QUOTE] In answer to David Dugan, Joel Mokyr tries to answer the puzzle of why it was not in Africa, the home of humans, that the first advanced technologies emerged. Among the factors considered are tropical soils, disease and philosophies.[/QUOTE]Link: [URL=http://www.dspace.cam.ac.uk/handle/1810/700]Here[/URL] ________________________________________ Anyway, other things that may be of interest on that site: [b] Migrating Genes, Surnames and Y Chromosomes[/b] [URL=http://mediaplayer.group.cam.ac.uk/component/option,com_mediadb/task,play/idstr,NaS-rss-NaS_07_04_29_/vv,-1/Itemid,26]here[/URL] This week were exploring how populations come by their genes including the surprise finding of African DNA in a remote village in Yorkshire. Oxford Universitys Bruce Winney explains how studying rural populations in Britain is helping to uncover genes linked to different diseases, and Turi King, from Leicester University, discusses what your Y chromosome says about your surname. Plus well be hearing how Cambridge scientist Mike Majerus is putting evolution to the test with the help of the peppered moth, and in kitchen science, more jam tomorrow as Ben and Dave show you a trick with a rolling jar. [b]The Evolution of Human Diversity[/b] Genetics and archaeology have established that all living humans are descended from a local population in Africa. In this lecture we will explore the patterns and processes by which this 'small beginning' led to the diversity of peoples we see today.
