Could the first Man be a woman? I’m not referring to Mitochondrial Eve, a female who lived approximately 200,000 years ago and was so named because mitochondrial DNA is passed intact from the mother to her offspring without the normal genetic recombination that occurs at fertilization. This makes Mitochondrial Eve a direct-line ancestor of every woman living today, but not the first fully human woman.
