> 	There has been some conjecture elsewhere on other discussions I have had that perhaps these two races, the Earthly and alien humans are not simply a case of unbelievably close 'parallel evolution' but that there was previously some form of contact, maybe a colonisation or even Isaac Asimov style Galactic Empire made up of a human race distributed amongst the stars. One that far back in pre-history fractured, lost contact and lost it's high technology for some reason. Being forced to start again separately the humans of Earth in the main took the technological path, but on their world The People took the magical one. Anyway it's a thought, and one possible explanation. :o)



Walabio:

	That does not work:

	We have molecular genetic evidence, fossil-evidence, evidence from homology, et al, clearly indicating that we humans are native to Earth and our closest relatives are the other great apes.  The only way that this can work would be if other aliens scooped up the ancestors of the People from dropped those humans an alien world, where they became the people.
