Mother of all Native Americans

Clipped to the Drawing Board by jackson Browne

Did you know Trivia - A DNA study suggests that nearly all of today's Native Americans in North, Central and South America can trace part of their ancestry to six women whose descendants immigrated around 20,000 years ago.
Those women left a particular DNA legacy that persists to today in about about 95 percent of Native Americans, researchers said. The women lived between 18,000 and 21,000 years ago, though not necessarily at exactly the same time.
The work was published this week by the journal PLoS One.
