There is one well known place where we can look to see if there is ANY reality to the assertion of some super-genome and that is with Oetzi the Iceman.
What do we know about Oetzi?
First he was both contemporary with Adam and likely a Grandson.
He lived about 5300 years ago and so Adam was still alive.
His mitochondrial DNA is from the haplogroup K.
He was born and his childhood was near the present town of Feldthurns in what today is Italy, but then moved about 50 km south.
He was around 40-50 years old when he died.
He had eaten twice recently, one Chamois, the other Red Deer meat along with fruit and grain, likely bread.
His shoes were composite, soles of bear skin, uppers deerhide. They were insulated with grasses.
There was blood from four other people on him.
Pollen showed that he ate his last meal in a mid altitude conifer forest and that it was spring time.
The biggest thing is that NOTHING was very different. There were NO signs of some Super-Genome in his makeup, the makeup of the other people, the critters or food, the materials used.
So, if there was some super-genome, why are there no signs of it in the people, animals, plants, spores and pollen contemporary with Adam?
