DNA Shows Black Genes in White Britons

(LONDON, Reuters) One in every 100 “white” Britons is descended from an African or Asian, a study into DNA has found.
The study’s author, Professor Bryan Sykes, believes the DNA originates in Africans brought to Britain as soldiers and slaves by the Romans. Even people who could trace their families back hundreds of years had non-white genes.
DNA显示英国白人有黑人的基因
【路透社伦敦电】一份针对DNA的研究发现，每一百位英国「白」人就有一位是非洲人或亚洲人的后裔。
这份研究的作者拜伦．席克教授相信，这些人的DNA 来自非洲人，而这些非洲人当时是以士兵或奴隶的身分，被罗马人带进英国的。
即使是那些可以追溯家族历史到几百年前的人，也都有非白种人的基因。
