So? In America, there are twin CITIES! Dallas-Fort Worth, or Minneapolis-St. Paul! USA! USA! [I'd suggest to Dr. Sribiju to get a better understanding of genetic drift.] A village. So?

In America, there are twin CITIES! Dallas-Fort Worth, or Minneapolis-St. Paul! USA! USA!

Doesn't seem like it'd take "detailed biochemical analysis equipment" to see how closely related the average individual is to another villager. I was thinking the same as Paula.

It'd be interesting to see whether the proportion of boy twins is much higher than girl twins. In a country where girls are still seen as a burden in some rural areas, twin girls might be the straw that broke the camel's back.
