Overview

How does one explain a genetic bottleneck in all modern human DNA, except modern-day humans from Africa, which appears to have occurred somewhere in the Middle East some 50,000 years ago? According to this science, very few humans outside of Africa survived a catastrophic event. Also, how is it possible that Neanderthal DNA is in nearly all humans, except modern-day humans from Africa, at about a 2% level starting at about 50,000 years ago? Would the very few surviving humans need to have mated with Neanderthals? Also, why is it that the Black and Caspian Seas have fossils of salt-water fish of the Mediterranean Sea from about 50,000 years ago when they were then fresh water lakes? These and other scientific observations are consistent with a deluge occurring in the Black Sea area around 50,000 years ago, a deluge consistent with what the Bible described as an event that killed nearly all modern-day humans, at least those outside of Africa: Noah's flood. Perhaps it is the first recorded deluge. Read this story and see what you think!
