From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Haplogroup X
Time of origin unknown, approx. 30000 years ago
Place of origin Asia
In human mitochondrial genetics, Haplogroup X is a human mitochondrial
DNA (mtDNA) haplogroup which can be used to define genetic
populations. The genetic sequences of haplogroup X diverged originally
from haplogroup N, and subsequently further diverged about 20,000 to
30,000 years ago to give two sub-groups, X1 and X2. Overall haplogroup
X accounts for about 2% of the population of Europe, the Near East and
North Africa. Sub-group X1 is much less numerous, and restricted to
North and East Africa, and also the Near East. Sub-group X2 appears to
have undergone extensive population expansion and dispersal around or
soon after the last glacial maximum, about 21,000 years ago. It is
more strongly present in the Near East, the Caucasus, and
Mediterranean Europe; and somewhat less strongly present in the rest
of Europe. Particular concentrations appear in Georgia (8%), the
Orkney Islands (7%) and amongst the Israeli Druze (26%); the latter
are presumably due to a founder effect.
North and South America
Haplogroup X is also one of the five haplogroups found in the
indigenous peoples of the Americas.[1] Although it occurs only at a
frequency of about 3% for the total current indigenous population of
the Americas, it is a major haplogroup in northeastern North America,
where among the Algonquian peoples it comprises up to 25% of mtDNA
types. It is also present in lesser percentages to the west and south
of this area -- in North America among the Sioux (15%), the Nuu-Chah-
Nulth (11%-13%), the Navajo (7%), and the Yakima (5%), and in South
America among the Yanomami people (12%) in eight villages in Roraima
in northwestern Brazil. <more>
And how does this interesting information point to a sailing anywhere?

In the beginning, there was nothing - but nothing is
unstable. And nothing borrowed nothing from nothing,
within the limits of uncertainty, and became something.
The rest is just math...
-- Paraphrased from Prof. Kim, Macalester College Physics Dept.
No body walked from Europe in 30,000 + BC, and it is probably paddled
not sailed
