In this episode, Dr Rob re-explains how Ancestry and 23andMe work, gives some personal examples, and delves into the mystery of Hans Jonathan and the African DNA found among living Icelandic people. The things we can now learn about ourselves, and our recent history, through ancestry testing are simply amazing. Revisiting the SNP chip used by Ancestry.com and 23andMe.com, 4-grandparent test, amazing geographic specificity, no you do not have thousands of relatives on those ancestry sites, population-level ancestry reduces to statistics, horrors of slavery, the amazing story of Hans Jonathan and the African DNA of Iceland, recreating genetic history of people across the world.
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!
