"Dr. Nathaniel Jeanson has found the Rosetta Stone of human history." Ken Ham, CEO and founder of Answers in Genesis, the highly acclaimed Creation Museum, and the world-renowned Ark Encounter
What happened to the ancient Egyptians? When their civilization fell, did the Egyptian people disappear? Or do their descendants exist to this day? What about the ancient Persians? Romans? Mayans?
For years, the answers to these questions have been hidden. But no more. Nathaniel T. Jeanson, a Harvard graduate with a Ph.D. in cell and developmental biology, has discovered a DNA-based, generation by generation family tree for global humanity. This tree uncovers the origin and fate of these ancient peoples—and connects them to peoples alive today.
“…a ground-breaking book…likely to become a classic.”

The fascinating research presented in Traced has additional far-reaching consequences for numerous contemporary debates:
- Race: Traced shows that the races have changed multiple times in human history. Thus, “white”, “black”, “Asian” and other common descriptors lose their meaning in light of modern genetics.
- Prehistory: Traced reveals that today’s Native Americans were not the first but replaced earlier inhabitants whose genealogical origins remain unknown.
- History and origin of minority groups: The genetics in Traced restores the indigenous histories to many obscure people groups and connects them back to specific ancestors in Genesis 10.
- The age of the earth: Traced represents one of the strongest arguments in print for the recent origin of humanity.
- Biblical authority: Historically, young-earth creationists have sought to defend biblical authority from scientific attacks; Traced puts biblical authority on offense.
Dive into the wild and emerging field of historical genetics and see how these recent discoveries on the fate of ancient civilizations end up uncovering the story of the whole world. Traced: Human DNA’s Big Surprise will inspire, not only budding historians, archaeologists, geneticists, linguists, and anthropologists, but anyone interested the marvelous and messy story of humankind.

Customer Reviews
The author uses color plates (maps, charts and pictures) to visually explain every topic. It really helped him to get a real picture and understanding of what he was referring to throughout the book.
This book shows how the Y chromosome mutation rates confirm a recent human history. It is further proof of the biblical account of human civilization.
Great read….very interesting.
*I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review.
A fascinating read correlating Y haplogroup changes over time to human migration.
Highly recommended for anyone interested in history and genealogy, and how that relates to genetics.
