[QUOTE]Originally posted by xyyman: [QB] That is why taking a close look at the populations they sample is very important. When Paabo did his study about ten years ago and concluded that SSA did NOT have any Neanderthal ancestry he used(3 people from ) ONE African population. yes. IIRC only 3!!! He did not use Khoi-san. Khoi is SSA!!! We need to understand the overall approach for these studies. I speculated that Khoi-San will have Neanderthal ancestry because they are closest to the orginal metapopulational that left Africa initially. The Neolithic seems to have originated from relatively isolated or differentiated populations within Africa. Who later admixed as they migrated outwards across Africa, North Africa, Middle East and Europe and into the Harrapan Valley. That explains why Yorubans(West Africans), Natufians, Europeans and Neolithic do NOT carry as much supposed ‘Neanderthal Ancestry”. Of course it is not Neanderthal “mixing” with humans. It is just sub-structure. ie Archaic modern humans are genetically closer to Neanderthal. That is, they are genetically closer to the ancestors of BOTH AMH and Neanderthals. [/QB][/QUOTE]
