Principles of Scientific Research in Egyptology

in steemstem •  7 years ago 

@laylasophia, I recently came across an article, where genetic scientists, using New Generation Sequencing,(NGS) suggest that ancient Egyptian genetics and populations were very different to current populations. Its interesting how new science can cast a new light on the past and prove what had previously only a hunch. It would be good to get your perspective on this. It doesn't appear that I can upload it here. Can we connect on chat.?
