We are family ... part II

Previously, I wrote about the National Geographic article that described research showing how humans came from one source. Now Andrea Manica of the University of Cambridge's Department of Zoology recently announced genetic research conducted that suggests human came from a single point in Africa. The article, by Ben Hirschler reported in Reuters on July 19th, 2007, continues and says,

The genetic evidence has always strongly supported the single origin theory, and now results from a study of more than 6,000 skulls held around the world in academic collections supports this case.
"We have combined our genetic data with new measurements of a large sample of skulls to show definitively that modern humans originated from a single area in Sub-Saharan Africa," said Andrea Manica of the University of Cambridge's Department of Zoology.

Research continues to show that we are ... literally ... biologically related to each other. The person down the street and the person around the globe are all distant relatives. Every leader should think on this.
