Is there a pure race out there? Or is everyone mixed?

Question

Throught history has every race been mixed with something else?
Are the Japanese the only race that's not mixed with anything?

Answer 1

No - all good answers though. The closest to "pure" would be Japan, Iceland and some tribes in the Amazon.
Even the Japanese and Icelanders have intermarried.

Answer 2

It depends how far back you want to go. If you want to go all the way back to the beginning of man, you would have to start with Adam and Eve (some evolutionists even say we started off from one human couple). That couple was middle eastern from which the rest of us developed through micro-evolution (micro means people adapt and slightly change but two dogs would not produce a non-dog. Macro believes two dogs can produce a non-dog). So with that as a basis, there is no pure race. More modernly though, if you went into third world countries where marrying within the tribe is the expected way of life, you would find some very pure races. The great thing is on the inside, we are all the same.

Answer 3

Some good answers here already above. Icelanders are one nation noted for a very homogenous genetic history in that there genes have had very little outside mix for many centuries. But even they came from the European mainland originally.

Answer 4

I agree that the Japanese have the longest history of not mixing genes with other groups. Does that make them pure? No, but moreso than other groups that I am aware of.

Answer 5

Pygmies in South America.
Maybe a few not many aborigines.
Headhunters in New Zealand or Papua New Guinea.
Palistinians

Answer 6

No, Japanese came from China A long long time ago.

Answer 7

You are confusing ethnicity with race. There is only one race, the human race.
