Next thing they'll try to tell us is that every culture has a tale of a massive flood.
Massive Genetic Study Reveals 90 Percent Of Earth’s Animals Appeared At The Same Time.
Eh,... not so sure about "dating" mitochondrial DNA to TOTAL genetic evolution. It's very good and interesting that they found M-DNA to be more "stable" over time then chromosomal DNA. But I'm doubting the "dating" thing.
From --- Far from special: Humanity's tiny DNA differences are 'average' in animal kingdom
I'd have to read more to fully comprehend how they ended up with time scale. Seems to me, an alternate explanation is that M-DNA just is not subject to mutation aging that they suspect. Could be MUCH harder to mutate because of simpler coding. And MOST mutations just cause death or dead ends in evolution..
