I've just finished my report on diversity and how it relates to 'Out of Africa' vs. Multiregionalism. It's a PDF, ~12 pages, single spaced, 12 pt. Times New Roman.
Multiregionalism and Diversity
Abstract:
The human population has relatively low levels of racial and regional diversity when compared with other species. In this report, I look at that phenomenon through the lenses of two opposing theories of human evolution: ”Out of Africa’ theory, and Multiregional theory. I will first introduce an hypothesis of diversity that is based on the latter theory, and then explain each theory briefly. Next, I will present evidence regarding genetic studies and the fossil record in an attempt to show Multiregionalism to be correct. Having shown Multiregionalism to be the correct theory, I will conclude that the hypothesis of diversity presented in the introduction is more plausible than the one accepted by ”Out of Africa’ proponents. The report will finish with an analysis of my research, and address minor problems in the diversity hypothesis and this report.
Regards,
Jon
