I've used Cleopatra & Julius Caesar as examples before, but it seems likely they left no descendants.

many of your ancestors were related, and the point where the pedigree 'collapses', where everyone alive at the time was your ancestor or the ancestor of no-one alive today is the "genetic isopoint" or Identical Ancestors Point (IAP).

Just for simplicity, let's say they "sync up" at 1 generation = 20 years.
In the year 1623 (400 years ago), you had a million ancestors alive, in theory.

You've had a lot of ancestors.
Run some numbers.
You have: 2 parents 4 grandparents 8 great-gp
See the progression? 2^n where n is generations removed.
At 20 "generations removed", 2^20 = 1 million.

So are you, so am I.
That is, if Babylonian King Hammurabi has ANY descendants alive today, then we're ALL probably his descendants.

Everyone alive in ~3000 BC was either YOUR ancestor, or has NO living descendants.
Highly unintuitive, but inevitably true.
