Recently I had an study of genetic markers (mitochondrial ADN which is the maternal lineage) done and I turned out to belong to the same halphagroup of the apaches!. (I am glad to know this, I have always liked the apaches!!!)!. The only thing that I would like to know is, Could the apaches be genetically related to the tribes of ancient central Mexico, like the Toltecs or the Aztecs themselves!?!. Any member of the apache nation that could answer this!? Greetings!. Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Native Americans came over in several different waves, over thousands of years!. The oldest are Clovis, and they would not be in your discernible genetic group!. In fact, there are many genetic groups involved with the Asiatic races that came into in the Americas, and most of them have less in common than the Ancient Greeks, the Etruscans, and original Romans and the Germanic Tribes that ultimately took over the region of Southern Europe!. I am not a member of an Asiatic tribe, but human interactions generally follow similar rules regardless of locale!. The genetic marker study is a great start, and if I were you, I'd be thrilled with the results!. Check into Archeology and History!. It's a big study, but it would would more likely to show interactions between Apaches (a more recent tribe) and Aztecs and Toltecs (more Ancient Tribes!.) Give me a ring if you can find Clovis!. They're as interesting as those first Indo-Europeans!. Good luck and happy hunting!. It will take the skills of a good trail scout, my friend, but will be worthwhile!.Www@QuestionHome@Com The scientists say that all native americans, north and south, are from the same stock!. They migrated from the Asian continent BC, and spread across the Americas!. Whether they came in waves or all togerther, I don't know!. I don't hink anyone knows!. There could be genetic markers similiar still but they seemed to have lived separated for centuries!. Those similiarities maybe gone now!.Www@QuestionHome@Com |
