The following genetic study indicates: o Slaughter of native American men was endemic by European settlers o Sexual unions (unknown, the extent to which forced sexual unions rather than consensual ones were involved, but with the widespread slaughter of men, one would be justified in perceiving that the sexual unions were almost entirely due to violence) - - - March 21, 2008 http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/7307563.stm - - - Excerpts: European colonisation of South America resulted in a dramatic shift from a native American population to a largely mixed one, a genetic study has shown. It suggests male European settlers mated with native and African women, and slaugh- tered the men. But it adds that areas like Mexico City "still preserve the genetic heritage" because these areas had a high number of natives at the time of colonisation. The findings appear in the journal Public Library of Science Genetics. ...
