Virtually every population outside of Sub-Saharan Africa has Neanderthal and Denisovan DNA between 1-4%. This includes all of Eurasia, all pre-Columbian America

Virtually every population outside of Sub-Saharan Africa has Neanderthal and Denisovan DNA between 1-4%. This includes all of Eurasia, all pre-Columbian American populations, Aboriginal Australians, Papuans, etc.
- ralferoo 7mo agoIs there any research about why Sub-Saharan Africa doesn't have Neanderthal DNA? Is the argument that the tribe of humans from Africa was good at repelling outside invaders, but themselves expanded outwards and assimilated (and then outnumbered) the other populations, or something else? It just seems a bit bizarre given that all humans elsewhere have relatively similar amounts (but quite a low amount) of Neanderthal DNA, which seems to suggest a reasonable amount of migration, interaction and interbreeding between populations everywhere except Africa.
- AndrewKemendo 7mo agoYes tons of research There were multiple waves out of Africa but Most early anatomical human groups never left Africa as a result, there’s more DNA diversity within the continent than outside Africa Its confusing because the non-african group grew exponentially while the intra-African continent continued to mature The anatomically modern humans that left Africa spread rapidly and aggressively across the world basically absorbing and destroying every proto-human group and ecological niche and now the world is ruled by the aggressive narcissistic chimeral hybrid of human (African) Neanderthal (European proto human) and denisovian (Peking man) that survived the exit snd expansion https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4067985/ https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4067985/
- IAmBroom 7mo agoWow, so many judgments and racist descriptions in one paragraph attempting to describe scientific knowledge.
- AndrewKemendo 7mo agoEverything typed above has empirical basis Feel free to investigate each claim independently and come to your own conclusions
- octopoc 7mo agoIt sounds like gp is saying non Africans are more narcissistic than Africans. So yeah that needs a citation (or clarification)
- selimthegrim 7mo agoYou might want to read about the Chadian introgression for the exception.
