Quote:
imagine! almost 1000 years after his death, there are still people in the area who share his DNA.
Some fun with statistics:
1000 years is about 50 generations.
50 generations ago, you had 2 to the 50th power ancestors in that generation (your 48*great-grandparents) that's 1,125,899,906,842,620 (over a quadrillion).
It's estimated that there were about 310,000,000 people in the entire world in 1000 AD.
I'll let you jump to your own conclusions from there...
