However, it could be that the DNA from earlier farmers has just been bred out over thousands of years?

Wings of Selkhet Posted November 14, 2005 #4 Share Posted November 14, 2005 Read "The Seven Daughters of Eve" by Bryan Sykes. It explains everything. I'm not quite sure why this is titled "origins revised," because we've known for a while that Europeans are mostly descended from the native hunter-gatherers, not the farmers from the Near East.
