Also established that genes from extinct Neanderthals were inherited by modern humans migrating from Africa around 60,000 years ago.
This result showed that interbreeding occurred between modern humans and Neanderthals when they coexisted. Moreover, those “traces” reportedly remain in the DNA of all modern humans outside Africa, including Japanese people.
Japan, East Asia, and Africa have almost no Neanderthal type A DNA. America also has relatively little. India has a lot.

約6万年前にアフリカから移住してきた現生人類に、絶滅したネアンデルタール人から遺伝子が受け継がれていることも突き止めた。
これは現生人類とネアンデルタール人が共存していた時代に、両者の間で混血が起きていたこと示す成果だった。しかもその「痕跡」は、日本人を含む、アフリカ以外のすべての現生人類のDNAにも残っているという。
日本と東アジアとアフリカはネアンデルタールのタイプA DNAをほぼもたない。アメリカも割とない。インドが多い。
