The point about the mother of all non-Africans is not that she was the first one out. Merely that she is the one from which all descended. Her contemporaries provided no DNA, which is the point of her being the mother of all. But subsequent women and men coming out of Africa certainly provided some additions to her descendants. My point was that those would have been relatively few compared with the vast gene pool in Africa. Same for the father of all non-Africans. It's not that he was first out of Africa, nor that he is the only bloke to contribute DNA as others came out subsequently to him and contributed some DNA too. It's just that he was the the single father of all. All his contemporaries and previous people died out without leaving descendants who made it through to now. To me it's interesting how recent human history is. Mqurice
