It's a funny separation of "immigrants" and "natives".
Especially when we take a look at human DNA.
Have you known, that all humans have one single RNA-strand, which marks them as
relatives?
Scientists are able to understand the early migrations of human populations from
Africa to the North because of this molecular biological fact. ;)
A question I couldn't answer myself: If we all spring from a single tribe of a
few homo sapiens, why do we have such a great gene pool? Wouldn't it be the
same as with clones, that there will be one time, when all humans have similar
genes and cannot reproduce?
Or that humans get a lots of diseases, because they lack of beautiful mutations
or "new blood"?
