In 1994 Bryan Sykes was called in as an expert to examine the frozen remains of a man trapped in glacial ice in northern Italy for over 5000 years--the Ice Man. Sykes succeeded in extracting DNA from the Ice Man, but even more important, writes Science News, was his "ability to directly link that DNA to Europeans living today." In this groundbreaking book, Sykes reveals how the identification of a particular strand of DNA that passes unbroken through the maternal line allows scientists to trace our genetic makeup all the way back to prehistoric times--to seven primeval women, the "seven daughters of Eve."

Great Value For The Money
Color: White
I needed something to present my daughter's upcoming 18th birthday gift in. It's a charm bracelet and a bunch of individual meaningful charms. None of them come in gift boxes, and I want something to present them all together in. Failing to find a gift box to fit the bill, I thought that this cute jewelry box would be a nice alternative. I am pleasantly surprised at what I received for the price. I expected a flimsy cardboard-ish box, and this is not that. It's not heirloom quality, but it is a nice sturdy box, well put together, and the interior tray and dividers are thick. Interior fabric is nicely soft and velvety. The box is larger than I expected, it will hold a good amount of jewelry, and it's pretty and of much better quality than I anticipated. Will certainly make a very nice presentation for my daughter's gift, and she'll be able to use it for many years, I'm sure.

Not your average jewelry box....
Color: Sage Green
A lovely simple yet elegant jewelry box - nicely made with a practical design. It has substantial weight and opens and closes nicely. This sage green color is muted with a matte finish making it soft in appearance. The gold closure adds just the right amount of interest. I placed a beautiful pendant inside as a surprise and together, these made the perfect gift for a 40th birthday. Would buy again!

Elegant Jewelry Organizer
Color: White, Color: White
The jewelry box exudes an elegant appearance. I ordered white, but the actual jewelry box is cream-colored. Nevertheless, I am pleased with the various organized compartments and the two-tiered design inside. The box is truly stunning and complements my dresser beautifully. Giving four stars due to the Misleading color.
