    • Evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins has postulated that human mitochondrial DNA (inherited only from one's mother) and Y chromosome DNA (from one's father) show coalescence at around 140,000 and 60,000 years ago respectively. In other words, all living humans' female line ancestry trace back to a single female at around 140,000 years ago. Via the male line, all humans can trace their ancestry back to a single male at 60,000 to 90,000 years ago.
