[QUOTE]Originally posted by Doug M: [QB] Just because U6 was found in Romania 35,000 years ago does not mean it originated there. U6 is between 40 and 50 thousand years old. The oldest human remains in Europe don't go that far back. Most scientists place the first humans in Europe between 40 and 50 thousand years ago. So it is very unlikely that U6 originated there in Romania. More likely is it arose in Africa or even the Levant, but among populations that for all intents and purposes were Africans. And that 35,000 year old sample of U6 is not tied to any modern European. Most likely a wave of R and U carrying migrants arose in Africa at the point of OOA 60,000 years ago. But when you are talking about populations over 40,000 years old this just becomes a case of splitting hairs. All these populations would have been African in every sense of the word at that time and prior. [/QB][/QUOTE]
