Then everything changed. A sudden climate shift turned the region into a desert — triggering one of the greatest migrations in human history… and possibly the genetic bottleneck that wiped out up to 90% of all men across the planet. In this episode, researcher Michael Button breaks down: • What the Green Sahara actually looked like • The climatic collapse that forced mass migration • How population models show a near-complete wipeout of male lineages • Why Europe, the Middle East, and Africa all show the same sudden genetic reset • Whether war, scarcity, or social restructuring caused the male die-off • How this single moment reshaped global ancestry, culture, and civilization • What this means for human origins — and what history books still get wrong This might be the most important ancient-humanity story never told.
