For some ethnic groups, the previous version of myOrigins was actually better. And ancient Origins is actually as old as the old myOrigins (and now completely out of date with the latest knowledge in genetic anthropology).
In either case, the populations and descriptions are now lagging...20th November 2019, 06:33 PM -
