as i said, the australian population went through a series of bottlenecks (each removing genetic diversity) on its way to australia
then, the population in australia has been relatively small for a long time, and yes, isolated
smaller population means fewer mutations
but within australia, i am sure that various populations were slightly differentiated
but it would take longer for them to differentiate because of the lack of initial variation due to bottlenecks and low effective population size
ok, looked it up, it's attempts of the ancient pronouncation?
Yes scholars say it was probably what ancient greek sounded like around the classical greek era
@stem ok, i'm with you so far. and what?
that's it
But the pronounciation of greek differs from pop to pop since there were different tribes
And it also changed during different time periods
australia is a big island
so... that on a global scale wouldn't be good then...
it's not like all the people are mating with people on the other side of the island
Erasmian pronounciation is based on how athenians said stuff in 500 bc and that is it
no, it wouldn't happen on a global scale

it's already happennign on a global scale. 200 years ago you couldn't travel overseas en masse.
no
did you read what i said?
modern or ancient greek?
what happened in australia that is happening on a global scale?
australia's genetic situation is not a result of panmixia
which is what you are envisioning
That's a tough one I don't know
The ancient greek with the erasmian pronounciation definitely sounds like pakis trying to speak greek that's the worst for sure
yeah so people on foot across australia have slight genetic diversity, but somehow people using planes will have big genetic diversity forever... lol
Sorry athenians <:ahem:639979147782914084>
how does interbreeding alone limit diversity?
i'm sorry
shared genes.
the kind of diversity you are talking about
the genes will still be there
diversity will be eliminated if specific populations replace other populations
not the mere interbreeding
if some populations stop breeding
What if we could peer into the past
and others replace them
And we found proto jews in Australia
