20. Human Diversity and Its History

do not have a critical test now of this hypothesis but there are clear predictions
about genes controlling external appearance that have not yet been identified.
The ultimate test of these hypotheses about human origins will be identifying
traces of past movements in the archaeological record. We need to develop closer
ties among linguistics, archaeology, and genetics in the study of human history.
