What if you could trace your family tree back 54,000 years? In My Prehistoric Family: A Genetic Detective Story, Swedish journalist Karin Bojs does exactly that. Using genetic tests and archaeological data, Bojs uncovers surprising truths about her distant ancestors—and herself.
This isn't just one woman's genealogy. It's a scientifically grounded journey through human history. Discover how the discovery of America left a mark on the DNA of many Icelanders, why the popular paleo diet is based on misconceptions, and which common ideas about "Aryans" are false. Bojs shows how even a single family's story reflects major events: mixing with Neanderthals, migrating across continents, domesticating animals, and inventing metalworking.
Anthropologist Stanislav Drobyshevsky calls it "a unique account of human population fates over fifty thousand years," praising how Bojs covers so much in a compact volume. Part personal memoir, part scientific detective work, My Prehistoric Family offers a fresh, intimate look at our shared human story.
