My DNA Journey
My DNA Journey
About 140 miles northeast of Tehran, Iran, in a narrow strip between the Caspian Sea wetlands and Elburtz Mountains lies a series of prehistoric caves inside the Iranian village of Tarujen. Most notable is Hotu cave.
Perhaps my 300th Great Grandfather occupied this cave along with the members of his tribe, or perhaps he dwelled in the Kamarband Cave which is just 300 feet away.
This is the beginning of my DNA Journey. What cave did you come from?
