Re: Native American map & marker
Thanks for your reply. I am so confused by this. It's hard trying to figure it all out. I tried to get a better picture through chromosome painting, but I ended up even more confused. It's just hard to believe that someone can have so many physical traits from an ethnicity but it not or barely shows...
