It all comes 'round...
What was that Original Series episode? I just watched it, but the title
has gone out of my head. The one with Sargon. Sargon suggests that his
race may have been the progenitors of humanity, but Kirk indicates that
humans have evidence that they evolved separately, on their own planet.
Spock, however, allows as how Sargon's speculation could explain some
problems understanding Vulcan evolution.
Whatever; it's sort of pointless to look to Star Trek for incredibly
well-reasoned, groundbreaking studies in Xenology.
