Genetic Bottlenecks and Ancient Biodiversity
A genetic bottleneck occurring approximately 100,000 years ago is discussed as evidence of a global cataclysm that nearly wiped out humanity. Channard notes that modern humans have significantly less genetic diversity than Neanderthals or chimpanzees. He suggests that ancient Earth may have hosted a much wider variety of human races, including those with different skin tones or physical statures.
