David Reich: The truth about us, and where we come from

Harvard geneticist David Reich and his team are DNA testing the bones of ancient humans. Their explosive results are still coming in, but one thing is already certain: much of what we thought we knew about human history is simply wrong.

[@jamescampi50]

Thoroughly enjoyed David Reich’s presentation, analysis/interpretation of the genetic data. I find his lecture style agreeably engaging. His restrained enthusiasm for the subject matter is contagious. I look forward to future developments with additional data when it becomes available. Fascinating how our understanding of human history evolves over time. Thank you.

@@Mr2TIMOTHY4V2 Scientific facts are probability claims based on best current evidence. Since the science of genetics and especially genetic archeology is fairly new. And since it takes a great amount of time, effort, and luck to find new archeological specimens, it would seem logical that the last word has not yet been said. Creation myths on the other hand are not considered falsifiable hypotheses by their adherents. And thus are not held to the same vigorous standards nor the same credulity as scientific theories.

What message ?

[@bartholomewtott3812]

What??

[@n.trushaev5132]

Humans already have heeded his message, I think. Racism is rapidly fading away, and I don't think it was ever the primary driver behind most conflicts and bloodshed. War and conflict are driven by many things, but three in particular stick out: (1) greed, (2) religion, and (3) the fact that people will obey politicians, celebrities, and their leaders. The reason the masses fight each other is not because they are racist, but rather because our leaders push us into conflict in the pursuit of personal gain. Racism might be a component of that for a small minority of the populace, but a much bigger problem is that the masses are willing to listen to their leaders, and their leaders are more than happy to mislead the masses. It is also important to recognize that most conflict probably isn't driven by blind hatred. That's a ridiculous idea. Humans are not just ravenous, hateful creatures, nor is it the case - as many people today think - that previous generations were somehow "primitive", "hateful", and "racist", but that the human race of today has somehow moved beyond these problems. This kind of attitude does not give enough credit to our ancestors, and it gives TOO MUCH credit to modern humans. The reality is that we are not very biologically or cognitively different from our neolithic ancestors. They were not bloodthirsty, racist savages, nor are we somehow enlightened altruists. Looking at war and conflict as arising due primarily to blind hatred and racism is both factually simplistic and morally risky, since it may lead us to overlook the actual causes of war and conflict. Even in our enlightened and altruistic age, we are just as prone to warfare, systematic violence, and genocide. In fact, the worst conflicts and episodes of bloodshed in history have probably been driven by good intentions and the pursuit of justice. For instance, we are beginning to see very dystopian attitudes becoming normalized on social media and in the mainstream media, all in the name of (1) "protecting" the public (and more importantly, advertisers, sponsors, etc.) from controversial and non-mainstream content, and (2) identifying "terrorists". KZbin, for instance, has been a very good example of this. The revelations by people like Edward Snowden about the NSA and CIA mass-surveillance programs are another (e.g. PRISM, COINTELPRO, etc.) The tyrant of the 21st century is a lot more likely to resemble figures like Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, or mainstream corporate politicians like Mitch McConell or Nancy Pelosi than some cartoonish racist bent on senseless bloodshed. The masses respect these people and trust them. They are generally seen by their acolytes as having good intentions, and as being intelligent and respectable individuals. People like Elon Musk are viewed as geniuses and saviors. The masses are becoming increasingly comfortable with allowing Google and the NSA to systematically and completely spy on them and censor the media as long as those in charge tell us that they're just protecting us from "terrorists", "radical islam", or even just controversial political viewpoints on the left and right.

[@n.trushaev5132]

@De Alvarado I agree that conflict is innate to humans, but that doesn't entail that most conflict is racially motivated. As I said, most conflicts arise out of greed/fighting over resources, religion, and people blindly following their leaders. I actually can't think of many major wars that were fought primarily for racial concerns. The Trojan Wars, the Viking raids, the Crusades, the 100 years war, the Seven Years War, the American Revolution, the French Revolution, the Russian Revolution, the Napoleonic wars, WW1, etc. were all fought either for religious reasons or because people were blindly following their leaders. The only major war I can think of where you can plausibly claim that it was fought for primarily racial reasons was the American Civil War, but even that war was not about one race trying to defeat the other for genocidal purposes. It was mainly Americans fighting other Americans over whether Black Americans should have rights and freedoms, but it didn't have anything to do with a desire for genocide. If you look at the largest incidents of bloodshed in human history, the Taiping Rebellion and the the Soviet Gulags, neither of these acts were motivated by racial concerns. Now you can point to the holocaust, where the majority of victims were targeted for being Jewish, but still almost half of the people killed by the Nazis were homosexuals, liberals, communists, or Poles, and hence were not killed for racial reasons. As for your point that people "tend to enter into conflict with other groups because we live in a competitive world with limited resources", I completely agree with you, and I don't see how anything I said would conflict with that claim. If anything, that point supports my claim that greed is a larger driving force in war than racism. I definitely think that racism can be part of that tribalistic behavior and competition over resources, but I think other forms of tribalism (like religious tribalism) have been more dangerous than racial tribalism. For instance, I have never heard a white person argue that we should bomb black people in Africa, but I have literally been hearing Christians and Americans argue for the last 30 years that we need to keep bombing Muslims in the Middle East. Why? Because (1) they're Muslims, and (2) because our political leaders keep telling us that these people "hate freedom", that they have "weapons of mass destruction". etc.

In my honest opinion I believe there’s more than one we can just only identify Neanderthal. And yes they were highly intelligent strong civilized people which we European people come from. They were the original European they’re called Indo-Europeans. The only reason we can’t understand the African genome is it’s riddled with mutations. And the sub group of humans that they derived from died out very early on in history. You also have to think of nature and some tribal African areas were very violent. So they could be the reason their early ancestors has no remains left to be found.

Rather they found even before the westward expansion of IE languages from steppe, as far back as 5300 years ago the Indus Valley people were migrating to central Asia in significantly large numbers, that "every single" central asian DNA recovered (from Gonur & Shahe-e-sokhta sites) contained small amounts of Andemanese (indian) ancestry, even more than 25% of the total number of DNA samples recovered were Indus periphery cline.

Beceause the origins of the Balto Slavic and Indo Iranian resides in the Corded ware. The corded ware were a steppe off shoot of the yamnaya & stredny stog, they migrated westwards to north central Europe and at the same time migrated east and evolved into the fatyanovo and Abashevo cultures. Those two then later evolved into the Sintasha which evolved into the andronovo culture and that culture was the one that spread deep into Iran and India. The germanic/celtic migrations are separate. Personally I believe celtic has its roots in the bell beakers which is why we see celtiberians in Iberia and celts in England. The eastward expansion of the Bell beakers spread the Celtic language and peoples. I haven't dug too deep into the origins of proto germanic Ill get back to you on that.

Is the figure at 17:36 in error? From the way it is described, it seems that the chromosome on the left should be non-African rather than African. The statistics would then show that Europeans and East Asians match the Altai Neanderthal about 2% as often as it matches the Mezmaiskaya Neanderthal.

Question: If every group of people come from other groups of people, and no group of people has lived anywhere for forever, how are we to understand or define "indigenous"?

[@woodygilson3465]

@Kraig StClair Having had some time to think about this, it seems to me that if a person is born and raised in a particular place, that makes them "indigenous" to that place. The whole notion of "first people" makes as much sense as two kids arguing over who gets to ride the front seat. Does the oldest child have an innate and unquestionable superiority over the younger solely on the basis of who was alive first? Of course not. We know that's neither fair nor reasonable, and that's why we teach our kids to share, to take turns, because that's what makes living together easier.

[@malachi-]

If you really want to get into it, that's all society is, a bunch of made-up-imaginary lines that where started by people and have been manipulated since. Although, there are basic survival instincts that have been with life since it was "born." For some strange reason, people get the comforts of life and survival mixed up in their heads, the same as dogs etc... etc.... our main jobs are just to multiply, no matter what... the drive of life.

I love to following your speaches and publications. I think you can tell us about redheads. Ancient writing said red hair was common among thracians and celts. Today redheads are absent from Thracian areas like Albania and the Balkans, but exist in scottland celts. Cleopatra even has red hair in ancient tiles. Samaritans even have a fairly high proportion of red hair for their region, and jews. I would love to hear your opinion about red hair. The dna analysis would be child's play compared to your other research. Darwinian religion probably plays a role in red hair. Worship of gold or the sun may select gold or blonde. When you and wife both have dark hair, but your child has red hair, you will be slightly inclined to kill them if you think your wife had an affair with the redheads down the block. You may take them all out - so darwinian theories say no redheads due to submissive dna visual cues.

The fosils across the 200ky time range, where the genomes comparison were obtained, are they of the same species? Is the out of Africa theory concluded by comparing genome of different human species, or by comparing modern human to ancient ape? Given the same result, will you draw the same conclusion if the comparison is made to, say, a fish, instead of an ape? The out of africa conclusion is it not based on senseless comparison?

Look at alex hurt's comments on this video, its absolutely disgusting. Ill quote him below. "Saying mixing is human nature isn't a reason we should race mix now. Having a homogenous population has a plethora of advantages from common identity to blood transfusion compatibility. It's also worth noting that mixing in the past has been with more closely related people relatively near eachother. Mixing two populations from different corners of the world could be radically different. There's also evidence to suggest we're worse off because of mixing in the past. Cranial capacity has decreased over time instead of increased and it's likely the result of mixing." Fucking awful lol

I took my DNA test and although being from the East Coast of America with Native American and African Ancestry, it says I have Luzon ancestry from the Philippians along with Melanesian DNA. The current Negrito's indigenous Filipinos look like my mom. I had no idea of any ancestry in the Pacific (also have Australian Aboriginal DNA) ... Something is being hidden from us, my DNA should be studied, I have only come across a handful of other people on the DNA registry with the same combinations, although I am otherwise connected to thousands of DNA relatives like everyone else, I believe the Pacific DNA match is evidence of a small population of people in the Americas who represent the original pre-mongoloid migration to the America's. We were not whipped out by the Asian Natives, we were assimilated and people like myself DNA proves it. But can we get pass the racism that keeps scientist from studying us and our migration to the Southern Americas before contact with the invading Natives from the North?

Regarding South asia, they finally went onto publish all the data. 90+ ancient DNA samples dated to 1200-800BCE from South Asia shows Only FEMALES with average 10% steppe ancestry that too in mixed form with Anatolian Farmer ancestry which is clearly absent in modern South Asians, so this was rendered as NOT ancestral to South Asia at all. Basically, the IE languages in India did not come in with few of these steppe FEMALES. The Indus Valley Civilisation, based on all the archaeological evidence related to Vedic religion we have found, was definitely speaking IE languages in 3rd millennium BCE and even earlier. Not only that, even BMAC shows no steppe ancestry contradicting to their proposed movement from steppes to South Asia. The Steppe ancestry is not only absent in 2nd millennium BCE SOuth Asia ancient DNA but was also absent in BMAC which as per their linguistic model should have been fully dominated by steppe genes. Well ancient DNA samples disprove their hypothesis. New papers have been announced to put a final nail to it in 2021 or early 2022. while the aDNA samples show out of South Asia migrations starting from 3328 BCE into Iran and central Asia.
