Cloning a Human

http://news.nationalgeographic.com/n...-zink-science/

If there was ever an argument for cloning a human, I think this specimen could present a logical argument for cloning, scientifically based, to test such things the blank slate theory. Given that its biology is 5.300 hundred years old, we would assume in cloning the developed brain mass after cloning would reflect that time period. I wonder if the clones cognitive ability/capacity would be limited, by that biology, or could the clone, regardless of genetic material, adapt.

It would be truly interesting if we could recover enough of a sample to clone this human.
