When did practicing medicine - in its varied, complex forms (from sharing medicinal plants to the earliest surgeries) - become something that we actually started doing?

    I read somewhere that my easily addictable brain is the way it is because of neanderthal DNA in particular places in my genome. I guess it makes sense; repetitive (or compulsive lol) behaviour and a really active reward centre would be useful if you're labouring making tools or foraging for food...you'd have to do it, so you might as well enjoy it.

    He skip a segment of the human migration, the people of the Andaman Islands, like sub-sahara Africans, don't have Denisovan or Neanderthal DNA, and if all the DNA in Asia is descended from the people from the Andaman Islands DNA, it will be safe to assume that the first people to Africa came into contact with the archaic humans at different times. The only people that have the denisovan DNA, all the people from the tip of Southeast Asia, and the islands of Sunderland;;; Philippines, Malaysian, New Guinea, ect. Only caucasians and Asians have Neanderthal DNA An
