Population Genetics different TPT

Interesting article highlighted in National Geographic.
which probably refers to this press release from the Center for GeoGenetics, at the Natural History Museum of Denmark.

From the release:

Dual ancestry of Native Americans

The most significant finding that the MA-1 genome reveals is its relation to modern Native Americans. This relative of present-day western Eurasians shows close affinity to modern Native Americans, but surprisingly not to East Asians who are regarded as being genetically closely related to Native Americans.

and further:

 The result came as a complete surprise to us. Who would have thought that present-day Native Americans, who we learned in school derive from East Asians, share recent evolutionary history with contemporary western Eurasians?

Just goes to show that things may be very different than TPT.

Here is a link to the Nature article driving these releases.
