Scientists find genetic evidence for southern origin of modern humans in East Asia
|
Genetic studies have provided evidence for an African origin of East
Asian populations, but their prehistoric migration routes in the Asia
region remain a long-standing controversy. On the basis of the genetic
evidence generated so far, particularly from Y-chromosome data, CAS
researchers recently discovered that early modern humans entered the
region from its southern part, and then they made a northward migration
about 25,000 - 30,000 years ago.
