This article is (probably) a lot of nonsense. The red flag for me was the stuff about the San languages.
These are only the issues I'm vaguely familiar with. I imagine that someone more knowledgeable me would find many, many more blatant falsities than I did.
Either the person who wrote this or their source obviously didn't know what they were talking about.

So you know, it's the person who wrote this article; not the author of the book (who also made a movie about it). The author of the book mainly relies of genetic markers in blood tests. 24.218.133.152 ( talk) 17:13, 3 May 2009 (UTC)
The page appears to be written basing on a single source, so it has no rights to squat on a general title, Human genetic history, which I redirected to where a multiple-source NPOV text is being written, Human evolutionary genetics. `' Miikka 17:31, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
The evidence presented in the book suggests that our ancestors spent a considerable time in the ocean, obviously pursuing seafood. The Aquatic Ape Hypothesis suggests that many of our adaptations during that time were the foundations towards our species eventually becoming an aquatic mammal, similar to seals and whales. Perhaps other researchers have acknowledged this correlation and could be cited in this article. Landroo ( talk) 12:17, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
By definition, every person on Earth is the present-day descendant of the earliest humans, so is this really what Wells is saying? — Joseph Roe Tk• Cb, 19:25, 20 April 2011 (UTC)
The Atlas of the Human Journey site has moved, it is now https://genographic.nationalgeographic.com/human-journey/ and is called Map of Human Migration. 100.15.117.207 ( talk) 19:49, 13 June 2018 (UTC)
