Who I really am

I just received my results back from the National Geographic Genographhic Project. For $100 you can have your DNA analyzed and results posted on their website. Their ultimate aim is to trace ancestry and find the migratory patterns of humans all the way back 60,000 years. My DNA is traced back using the Y-Chromosome that’s genetic coding exists through my entire lineage. I belong to the Hapolgroup R1B (M343) which is roughly 70% of the men in southern England and 90% or more in Spain and Ireland.
My earliest ancestors come from Africa around 50,000 years ago. The Homo sapiens were estimated at about 10,000 at that time with stone tools and the earliest evidence of art and advanced conceptual skills. Take a look at my results.
