Foreign DNA, Evidence Of Ancient Aliens?
Joshua Akey, Ph. D., Associate Professor of Genome Sciences at the University of Washington, has announced a rather spectacular finding in an interview with Linda Moulton Howe, the Emmy winning investigative journalist. In this interview which can be heard at earthfiles.com, he states that he and his associates found common DNA in tribesmen separated by hundreds of miles of inpenetrable African jungle. Five individuals from the Pygmy from Cameroon, the Hadza and Sandawe from the area of Tanzania, all who speak with a click language, had their individual genome run through and analyzed sixty times each. And their conclusive results were that they found what they termed, “foreign DNA” in each of the tribesmen. Akey says that, “the group that we think contributed this foreign DNA to these African populations was much more closely related to anatomically modern humans than Homo erectus. I think it is more appropriate to think of this foreign group as about as different as Neanderthals were to Cro-magnon Home sapiens, sapiens.” In this same interview he indicates this DNA was deposited inside this genome 1.8 to 2 millions years in the past. He does not, however, indicate where this “foreign DNA” came from, or to whom it can be attributed, other than to say it most closely resembles modern man.
