mtDNA shows how humans migrated across the World



It has been over 20 years since DNA analysis technology began to be used in the field of archaeology. In many countries, scientists are analyzing genes from ancient human fossils and making them into a database so that they can be used for research.

Genes extracted from more than 10,000 fossils were extracted, analyzed, and compared.As a result, humans are said to have originated from a woman in Africa about 200,000 years ago.

And as a result of genetic analysis of her descendants who lived scattered around the globe, their migration routes were revealed.
In this video, their movement paths by era were mapped.
