In this episode, Dr Rob recounts a number of fun anecdotes in history and genetics. Thomas Jefferson has children by his slave Sally Hemmings, historical uncertainty, Genghis Khan leaves an enduring genetic legacy, African Y chromosomes in old England, Levi and the Cohanim, the Jewish Lemba of southern Africa.

After five years and over 100 episodes, I moved to a new support system. These videos come out sporadically, so I do not accept monthly supporters any more. However, one-time donations can be made through buymeacoffee.com/BibGenetics. Or, you you prefer, I would love it if you became a regular supported of Creation Ministries International. See creation.com for more information, and tell them that Dr Rob sent you!
