One woman is the ancestress of all living people. They call her Eve. Is she the Eve of the Bible? How long ago did she live? Join Dr. Rob as he explains how scientists struggle to assign a date to Eve. It may come as a surprise, but the 'date' is based on assumptions that can be questioned and philosophy that is both speculative and debatable. All we can know is that the mutation rate is quite high and the mutation removal rate is quite low. Thus, science tells us that Eve lived not many thousands of years ago.
