Genomic evidence

DNA Workspace

Use genomic relationships as evidence within the same provenance model as documents and oral history—never as a standalone identity oracle.

Interpretation boundary: this can support a biological relationship/shared-ancestor hypothesis within method limits. It does not identify a specific historical ancestor, community, or cultural identity by itself.

What this supports

• Biological relationship hypotheses
• Candidate MRCA ranges
• Intersections between independently documented chains
• Prioritization of historical research

What this does not establish

• Specific historical ancestor by itself
• Tribal citizenship or political status
• Cultural identity
• Exact migration path
• Source population without additional evidence
