Graham Hancock Quote
Anzick-1's Clovis connection is of immediate relevance to our quest here--which is that although Clovis did, at the limits of its range, extend into some northern areas of South America, its heartland was in North America. Intuitively, therefore, we would expect the Montana infant, a Clovis individual, to be much more closely related to Native North Americans than to Native South Americans. Further investigations, however, while reconfirming that Anzick-1's genome had a greater affinity to Native Americans than to any extant Eurasian population, revealed it to be much more closely related to native Americans than to Native North Americans!
