From the article:
Quote:
From the genetic diversity of our genome today, scientists have been able to reconstruct that the number of our ancestors fell to just over a thousand individuals 900,000 years ago. The cold and drought probably caused the community to shrink to the size of Kandersteg. It must have been hard times, at any rate the number of our ancestors hardly grew over the next 5000 generations. Only after 117,000 years did they spread out again.
