(331) How this blog started
















Tree of Knowledge arose after Homo erectus

(237) Mount Toba gave birth to the Tree of Knowledge ðŸ”´ðŸ”´



So far, we did not need a Tree of Knowledge (of autosomal recessive disorders), prior to the super eruption of Mount Toba 74,000 years ago. Australopiths, as well as Homo erectus, had exuberant genetic variation and were armed against autosomal recessive disorders.

We therefore skipped the Tree of Knowledge for Australopithecus and Homo erectus and in the first case gave the Tree of Knowledge the meaning of treacherous adultery of Eve, adultery with the Serpent from another tribe, in which Eve also told Adam that the apple was his child:

On which God became furious and roared:

15 And I will put enmity between thee [the Serpent] and the woman [Eve], and between thy seed [your tribe] and her seed [her tribe]; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.








So, before the arrival of Homo sapiens, tribal identity (inbreeding) was more important than preventing autosomal recessive disorders (outcrossing). Again, this does not mean that they could not die out from disorders, but this danger was not that prominently.
