The British scientist claims that solved the mystery of the Russian Yeti. Professor Bryan Sykes of Oxford University studied the DNA of descendants Zana, the famous “wild” women caught in the late 19th century in the south of Russia, according to the portal Atlantico.

According to legend, Zana was discovered in 1870 in the mountains of the Caucasus between Georgia and Russia. Since then, she has kept among several owners, one of whom managed it “tame”. The last man holding her on his estate in the territory of Abkhazia.

Witnesses described it as polucheloveka-poluobezyanu two meters tall, covered with thick brown hair.

In Zana had at least 4 children from different fathers, and some descendants still live in the region.

After studying the DNA of possible descendants, Professor Sykes came to the conclusion that in fact this woman with a 100 percent probability came from sub-Saharan Africa, but has nothing to do with any of the existing groups of people.
