Zana The Wild Woman

So we don’t have to go through the whole paper and the abstract of genomic research, could you simply for the rest of us, say why?

I bought something at Curry’s and the girl on the checkout has given me enough homework to do already.
It's not a long read. The upshot is that she was most closely related to the Dinka people and had no archaic hominin in her genetic make up. Descriptions of her give a very odd suite of characteristics, covered in hair, huge size, massive strength, no language. She must have had a combination of weird conditions. This, of course does not explain the almasty as a whole.
 
If we are going to say she was very odd....(I think most descriptions of her, however vague, make her out to be singular).

Why did she end up in a place where they said "Oh, Wildwoman, harmless creature, needs looking after..."

Rather than a place where it would be "Scary monster! Best get rid of?"

As most of the world would would be?

In the programme i saw about her, it said she was kept in a cage and local folk would come to see (and abuse and rape) her. :( :mad:
