Geneticist's Jaw-Dropping Discovery About Neanderthal Ancestry!

@highlycompellingAbout
Welcome to Highly Compelling on YouTube were we delve into a diverse array of topics, offering in-depth analyses and thought-provoking content of early human history, including explorations into Neanderthal and Denisovan history, genetics, and their interactions with early modern humans. We also explore the evolution of other hominins such as Homo erectus, Homo heidelbergensis and other species, and explore multiple geographic regions from Europe, Africa, Asia and the Pacific. I only use sources from scientific publications and peer-reviewed studies, which are listed in the video description and/or shown on-screen in the video. I have been studying Neanderthals for over 40 years, and have B.Sc. in Environmental Science plus Graduate-level courses. However, it is important to note that Paleo-anthropologists often disagree, and on this channel I will offer different perspectives, including those from outside of the Western academic world. Thanks for Watching!
Video Description
In a controversial new interview, Harvard University geneticist David Reich stated that all non-Africans are essentially "evolved Neanderthals". Furthermore, He makes the case that rather than only 2 or 3% of our DNA coming from Neanderthals, Europeans are actually up to 20% Neanderthal. This is because Neanderthal DNA was removed from our genomes due to natural selection over the last 50,000 years. Neanderthals, who disappeared from the archaeological record around 40,000 years ago, have long been regarded as our closest evolutionary relatives. However, since the first discovery of Neanderthal remains in the 1850s, scientists have debated whether Neanderthals are a separate species or an extinct subset of our own species, 'Homo sapiens'.
