Deducing
where
and
when
is a far trickier task
than deducing
that
there was a
Mitochondrial Eve
,
something that nobody denies. Consider a few of the things we
already know about Mitochondrial Eve, setting aside the recent
controversies. We know that she had at least two daughters who had
surviving children. (If she had just one daughter, her daughter
would wear the crown of Mitochondrial Eve.)
