We've been on Egyptsearch for how long? Some of us here for DECADES.... We already KNOW Hawass has an anti-African stance, so what's new exactly? [/qb][/QUOTE]Supposedly they are going to come out with more aDNA data from Egyptian royal mummies next year. [URL=https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-02083-0]Smallpox and other viruses plagued humans much earlier than suspected[/URL] [QUOTE]Historical records suggest that a smallpox-like disease has been with us for more than 3,000 years, and might even have killed the young pharaoh Rameses V in the twelfth century BC — although nobody can be certain that he had smallpox or that, if he did, the disease killed him. The latest DNA evidence doesn’t shed any light on that idea, but [qb]an Egyptian project to analyse the DNA of royal mummies is scheduled to report in 2022.[/qb][/QUOTE]But with Hawass expressing the sentiments he does, I question whether it'll cover the mummies' apparent population origins or affinities at all. He doesn't sound like he wants his nationalistic Egypto-centric beliefs challenged either way. [/qb][/QUOTE]We'll see. [/QB][/QUOTE]
