A further inquiry on modern human origins, based on common genetic pool surveys of rigorously selected population samples and highly informative immunological polymorphisms, provides new evidence of an Occidental-Oriental population split as the origin of human gene pool divergences. The most likely ancestral genetic profile is discussed in the context of the debate raised by preliminary DNA restriction fragment length polymorphism studies, which contradict the conclusions drawn from classical blood group analyses.
