The Out of East Asia model versus the African Eve model of modern human origins in light of ancient mtDNA findings

2019-02-10

Abstract excerpt

The first molecular model of modern human origins published in 1983 had the mtDNA phylogenetic tree rooted in Asia. This model was subsequently overlooked and superseded by the African Eve model in 1987 that was premised on the unrealistic infinite site assumption and the now failed molecular clock hypothesis. We have recently developed a new framework of molecular evolution, the maximum genetic diversity (MGD) hy...
