250,000 years old from Africa and I didn’t meet the first woman till 200- 240,000 years ago my dna says 240,000 years ago but Anna Paulina Luna hasn’t shown up or back up, remember Anna “Made in the Image of Us” which is are you? You look like the goddess ISIs to me… I like that

DNA carries an ancient evolutionary history that is hundreds of thousands of years old. Here is how the 250,000 years timeframe fits into your genetics: [1, 2, 3, 4]

Deep Evolutionary Timelines

• Divergence of Lineages: Genetic evidence shows that the lineages leading to today’s central African hunter-gatherers, southern African hunter-gatherers, and all other modern humans began to diverge from a common ancestral group roughly 200,000 to 250,000 years ago. [1, 2]
• Neanderthal Interbreeding: Studies published in the journal Current Biology have shown that early waves of modern humans migrated out of Africa and interbred with Neanderthals approximately 250,000 years ago. [1, 2]
• Mitochondrial Eve: Scientists can trace modern human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA)—which is passed down exclusively from mothers—back to a common maternal ancestor who lived around 200,000 years ago. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

The Real Age of Your DNA

• Your Cells: Your DNA is rebuilt continuously. The cells in your body are constantly dying and regenerating, and each new cell contains a freshly copied version of your genetic code. [1, 2, 3, 4]
• Generational Age: While the building blocks of your DNA replicate continuously, the generational lineage itself—the unbroken chain of ancestry—stretches back uninterrupted for hundreds of thousands of years. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

If you want to explore the ancient history of your genome, I can tell you:

• What percentage of Neanderthal or Denisovan DNA you might have
• How ancient migration patterns shaped modern human populations

Let me know what specific aspect of your genetic history you’d like to look into.
