Can you point me to some of that documentation?

I'd like to know why you think people are so homogeneous.

Because there is very little difference to indicate that they are not, and a
great deal that says they are, and it is illogical to assume that they are not
in the absence of evidence and in the presence of contradictory evidence.

Are you trying to pretend that people do not, over generations in the same locale, adapt to geographical conditions? What about natives of the High Andes, who can breathe comfortably at altitudes where the air is so thin your average lowlander finds himself panting for breath after walking only a few paces? Even skin color is largely a result of geography - hence the high melatonin content of "black" African skin, the extreme fairness of Nordic people. (Of course, it happens over many generations, and the human race has become too peripatetic for anyone to pin-point origins for most of us, nowadays.)
