THE ROAD OF THIS LINE. GOLD COUNTRIES ARE WHERE IT IS COMMON. SHAPES ARE SCHEMATIC.
The story
More than 50,000 years ago, a man walked out of Africa. His sons, and their sons, carried the same mark into West Asia, where J-M410 likely grew in the lands where farming began. Its branches spread to the Mediterranean, Iran, Central Asia and South Asia, and some sons later travelled on to Southeast Asia. Every father since passed it on. You still carry it.
