Well, we know that he inherited the Sage's "eyes" — his powerful chakra and spiritual energy. Now, I believe that he had the purest form of Yin energy, and the So6P had the Rinnegan, which suggests that the Rinnegan requires both Yin (Spiritual) and Yang (Physical) energy. Because the Elder son was directly related to the Sage, he inherited the purest form of his DNA, so he obtained the full amount of Yin chakra. Remember, in the manga it states that over time the DNA from these ancestors became diluted as other clans formed. Thus, Uchihas nowadays are not born automatically having Mangekyou or Eternal Mangekyou Sharingans. So far, the highest form of dojutsu before the Rinnegan is indeed the EMS, and the EMS is said to evolve into the Rinnegan. Logically, I believe that the Elder son must've had the EMS, because he gained the purest form of Yin energy from the Sage, and so got the highest form of dojutsu without actually being able to achieve the Rinnegan (he lacked Yang energy) - He was the bearer of the first EMS.

this seems pretty realistic, now that i think about it.
btw- what's up with the font? you didnt do that before >_>
you dont need senju dna for the rinnegan as their is no evidence pointing to it. the elder son inherited the sages eyes. the rinnegan are the sages eyes. the uchiha have the sages eyes. they dont need the senju to unlock their own power. the elder son had the rinnegan but no senju dna. that proves it all.

Just like using it.
Your evidence is where exactly? I've got Madara gaining the Rinnegan after obtaining Hashirama's DNA. You?
