Scientist know that studying life
Is always with surprises rife,
And now, with DNA around,
They are surprised at what they've found:
Some 23,000 years ago,
Amidst Siberian ice and snow,
A body of quite a young boy
Was buried, along with his toys.
For half a century, it dwelt,
In a museum's musty cell,
And now, his DNA revealed
Some curious findings, long concealed:
His people, who at Lake Baikal once stayed,
Showed European DNA,
And what appears even more odd,
With American Indians shared their blood...
These findings show the true extent
To which Europe' s ancient people went,
And question, in migrations great,
Who really crossed the Bering Strait?
Thus DNA has helped unravel
Te ancient humans' love of travel...
