[QUOTE]Originally posted by Doug M: [QB] That is the problem, if they are 'Playing games' and Laymen have to do their own analysis to get the truth, then doesn't that make the research invalid? That is quite extreme don't you think? Not that I disagree there has always been an agenda in anthropology, but they have to make it look credible. If African scholars were doing that nobody would give their work the time of day.... That said, my own perspective is that they rely too much on a-priori models based purely on speculation and hypotheticals when it comes to throwing around the label "Eurasian" in ancient African DNA. Obviously more actual ancient DNA from Africa will reveal that. This shows the limitations of such speculative models. And some people put to much faith in these models. Most of these papers are coming at it from a European perspective in terms of understanding "Eurasian" genetic history after OOA. Africa is thrown in as almost an afterthought, with the main issue being they don't have a lot of ancient DNA from Africa to use in their work. As for playing games, specifically concerning AE, we will see when and if more DNA results are published from more well known mummies and other remains found there.... [/QB][/QUOTE]
