The DNA That Rewrites Human History: Interview with Nathaniel T. Jeanson – 11/21/25
César Vidal interviews Nathaniel T. Jeanson. https://www.cesarvidal.tv/english/videos/the-dna-that-rewrites-human-history-interview-with-nathaniel-t-jeanson In this edition of Candilejas, César Vidal speaks with Dr. Nathaniel T. Jeanson, a Harvard-trained researcher and one of the most intriguing voices in the field of molecular biology as it relates to human history. Throughout the conversation, Jeanson explains how genetic analysis—particularly of the Y chromosome and mitochondrial DNA—makes it possible to reconstruct the deep history of peoples, trace forgotten migrations, and clarify the real origins of numerous modern ethnic groups. The scientist outlines some of the most revealing conclusions from his works Traced, They Had Names, and Replacing Darwin, including the existence of complex migratory movements into the Americas thousands of years before Columbus, as well as a decisive arrival from Central Asia around A.D. 400, parallel to the Hunnic invasions that transformed the destiny of the Roman Empire. During the interview, Jeanson also details how modern genetics offers a striking reflection of the lineages mentioned in chapters 10 and 11 of Genesis, providing a perspective that connects scientific research with ancient historical accounts. He further addresses the need to reassess certain assumptions of Darwinism in light of advances in human DNA sequencing and analysis, which now make it possible to reconstruct the human timeline with unprecedented precision. The result is a fascinating conversation in which science, history, and tradition converge to offer a fresh view of humanity’s origins and of the ways in which genetics is rewriting fundamental aspects of our past. An exceptional interview that will leave no listener indifferent.
