The reason historical linguistics is so important is because it is a well-established population science, meaning that we can infer historical relationships and activities from linguistic data. Darwin hated math It is specifically in population genetics that one finally encounters some applications of probability theory and statistics. (1970) An Introduction to Population Genetic Theory. Population genetics is a theory-laden subject, based entirely on neo-Darwinian assumptions. The idea behind this software is that you input the genetic data for a group of people, and the program determines the relative contribution of hypothetical “parent” populations to each individual's genome. The K=2 at the bottom means that this plot was generated Now we have K=3, so three theoretical parent populations. Let's look at some examples: Click to enlarge. If two groups In fact, linguistics is such a reliable indicator of shared history that some archaeologists and other non-linguists use language families (more about these later) as hooks on which to hang their theories - 'Austronesian' migration into southeast Asia with rice farming, etc. (4) http://iubio.bio.indiana.edu:8089/ (5) Interested readers can find exact formulations in any textbook on population genetics, e.g., Crow, J.F. These assumptions, combined The "neo-Darwinian assumptions" both Gauger and Luskin squawk about refer to the modern theory of evolution. Luskin and Gauger have In any serious, introductory discussion of junk DNA I'd expect to see Ohno's 1972 paper introducing the concept of junk DNA referenced, and Ohno's argument discussed. As known, Darwin introduced no math whatsoever in his theory of origin of species.
