The Real Eve
The Real Eve

The Real Eve dealt with how we all originated from the same biological mother. Such an extraordinary and interesting concept has made some people question and wonder about this. In order to eliminate any doubts, there is a method in which we can verify this statement and discover where exactly our ancestors traveled. The method used to accomplish is called genetic engineering. You see, genetic engineering enables us to mutating mitochondria DNA located within our body. This discovery was first established by Professor Kahn. The information gathered by her ways lead us through a journey that few were ever even aware of taking place. This journey evidently first took place approximately 150,000 years ago when the first Ice Age took place. Eve was considered to have been part of a group that lived in Africa. At that time, Africa was experiencing a period of drought due to the Ice Age. Therefore, this caused everyone to move to a different location and adapt to a new environment in order to survive. These groups would divide up and travel different routes but mostly along the coastline. The beginning of their journey truly showed that they would have to endure a great deal. If these people were to survive, they would have to find alternative sources for food. Their journey along the shores gave them the opportunity to strengthen their hunting skills. A few signs of these skills can be found in coral reefs along the coastline. For example, there have been many scientists that have found seashells embedded into the reefs. These shells were already opened and removed of all meat. They would continue to feed on shells and fish until their food supply became consumed. These restrictions caused some people to even die of hunger. As a result, the world population was at one point ten thousand and we were in fact an endangered species. It wasn't until we moved onwards to a new place when our chances for survival became better. These

    In fact the first reason people died was because of lack of food. They didn't have many animals around because of how dirty the land was because of them throwing out their poop (Blanton 55). “it was plenty to get them fatly home to england., And headed out into the atlantic.”(61). They didn't have any skilled farmers or butchers to get them any meat or to grow corn ( Smith 59) . “ Frances West and thirty-six men men [sailed] up the chesapeake bay to try to trade for corn with the Potawomeke Indians.” (61)Some people who did live still died from something else.

    At first, during the age of the cavemen, they hunted for both animals and edible plants for survival. There are still groups like that today, for example, the Guineans, who still live everyday life the way that their ancestors did thousands of years ago, hunting for animals and plants to gather. They would also keep moving, and build shelters out of wood wherever they find enough resources to survive. The problem was not with the people, but it was with the environment and how there were not any easy plants to grow or animals to raise that would help them survive. For example, sheep, cow, or any other farm animals that helped to farm. However, the problem is that their ecosystem does not support that kind of life. Also, they do not have enough knowledge or money to change the ecosystem for it to…

    According to Spencer, approximately 10,000 humans were living 50,000 years ago before they began their journey. Amazing how today there are 6 billion people that descended from those 10,000. These humans originated in Africa, specifically from the Buschman tribe. Research shows that this tribe is the only one with a “click” sound language and according to our ancestors they were great hunters and the best trackers. Using the lisong markers to track the past through DNA is how they discovered that the Buschman carried the oldest genes, giving evidence it all began in Africa.…
