What ever happened to the ancient Egyptians? When their civilization collapsed, did the Egyptian people disappear, or are their descendants still around today? Whatever became of the ancient Persians, Mayans, and Romans?
For ages, the answers to these questions have been concealed. But now, Nathaniel T. Jeanson, a Harvard graduate with a PhD in cell and developmental biology, has discovered a DNA-based, generation by generation family tree for global humanity. This tree reveals the origin and fate of these ancient peoples and connects them to people alive today.
Jump into the wild and emerging field of historical genetics and see how these recent discoveries on the fate of ancient civilizations wind up uncovering the story of the whole world. Traced: Human DNA's Big Surprise will inspire, not only budding historians, archaeologists, geneticists, linguists, and anthropologists, but anyone curious about the marvelous and messy story of humankind.
