In 2000, Japan excavated a batch of ancient human bones, one of which exactly matched the DNA of the Japanese artist Yuki Amami, and what is even more amazing is that she has the same maternal ancestor as a Tibetan girl from Yunnan, China!
This story reveals the extraordinary power of science and technology, which can not only unravel the fog of history, but also connect the human blood. Do you also want to know who your ancestors were? Perhaps, in the world of genes, you can also find long-lost relatives.
What secrets are contained in the DNA of ancient people? Can we peek into the stories of thousands of years ago through mitochondrial DNA? Perhaps, this is a mysterious journey to the truth.
A long time ago, it was widely believed that it was the responsibility of men to pass on the lineage, however, with the advancement of science, the importance of matrilineal lineage was gradually recognized. Yuki Amami's DNA journey not only connects ancient human history, but also allows us to re-examine the origin of life.
In the course of their search, scientists discovered a striking connection between Japanese and Chinese ancestors. This is not only a story between two countries, but also a blend and commonality of human civilizations.
In China's Yunnan province, Yuki Amami meets his long-lost "sister", and the similarities between the two are striking. This encounter is not only a reunion of blood, but also a fusion of hearts.
Under the guidance of science, we continue to explore the origin and development of human beings. Perhaps, there is more to the mystery of genes waiting to be solved, and this amazing DNA journey has just begun.
