unfortunately, as always happens with scientific journalism, the article doesn't tell you jack squat... i'm trying to understand how they did this and what inputs into the program they assumed...
Read the Nature article if you're curious.
I think this summary is detailed enough for the lay audience. I don't see any reason why they should explain their presumably fairly complicated algorithms dictating migration and mating in this article."Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before.

Rohde's claims in no way imply that there were Zulu-Mexican couples."Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before. He is full of murderous resentment of people who are ignorant without having come by their ignorance the hard way. "

I think it's bunk.
There are groups of people who have only married among themselves for the last 3500 years, surely.
I think it's a model of how things could work, not how they did work.(\__/)

Incidentally, it's odd seeing all these Polytubbies calling bull**** on a study published in a top-tier journal like Nature without actually haveing read the article."Beware of the man who works hard to learn something, learns it, and finds himself no wiser than before.
