Do you have DNA from all of your ancestors, even the first ones or does DNA eventually go away. Like for example, say someone has an ancestor from Isreal or Syria, would that make them part Jewish or part Syrian(though very little) or does DNA go away completely? I had asked a similar question, but I'm trying to simplify my question.

It never goes away; this is how geneticists claim they can trace people "all the way back", by the mutations. Male DNA mutates much more quickly than female DNA; taken together, they write a "pretty compelling" story. Yes, if you have ancestors from long ago in Israel or Syria, it will show: it did for me. So far, I have traced my ancestry back to 3 different types of Jews...
In addition to the National Geographis Genotype program, you can also check with www.familytreedna.com for more information on genetics and DNA. It is exciting stuff.

Native Americans aren't East Asians AT ALL. There is an inclination amongst Eurocentric students situated on superficial likeness to assimilate Native Americans with East Asians. They have an excessively unique DNA. Eurocentric students do this plenty; possibly they desire to end up that Native Americans aren't so "Native" in any case and that they're descendants of East Asians who crossed the Bering Strait 1000s of years in the past. The equal Eurocentric students do not do the equal factor with Melanesians, papuans and even the Olmecs (who seem to have "African aspects"). They NEVER ask whether or not Melanesians, papuans and even Olmecs are African situated on their aspects. Equating Native Americans with East Asians proves that Eurocentric students and people who were brainwashed via them have a racist time table.

It does not go away. Go here:

this site has an example on it showing what happens to out inherited DNA, and will explain things.
