An intriguing, interactive map that provides a virtual migration of man from our African origins, based upon genetics, archaeological and anthropological evidence, and climatology. Very educational!

This is certainly one of the most wonderous sites on the web IMO. Thank you so much gingembre.

I highly recommend this for every member of Clipmarks to POP and enjoy.

For both adults and children.

																	The Bradshaw Foundation, in association with <A href="http://www.bradshawfoundation.com/stephenoppenheimer/stephen-oppenheimer.html">Stephen Oppenheimer</A>, presents a <A href="http://www.bradshawfoundation.com/journey">virtual global journey of modern man</A> over the last 160,000 years. The map will show for the first time the interaction of migration and climate over this period. We are the descendants of a few small groups of tropical Africans who united in the face of adversity, not only to the point of survival but to the development of a sophisticated social interaction and culture expressed through many forms. Based on a synthesis of the mtDNA and Y chromosome evidence with archaeology, climatology and fossil study, <A href="http://www.bradshawfoundation.com/stephenoppenheimer/stephen-oppenheimer.html">Stephen Oppenheimer</A> has tracked the routes and timing of migration, placing it in context with ancient rock art around the world.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/87D5E2CB-9452-4B75-BDA4-7EF506E20E77/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
