From the group Stockholm group: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/early/2018/10/22/448829 A population clearly on the clade of ANE, carrying Y-DNA P1* and mtDNA U, all the way up in North-East Siberia, ~30.000 years ago. After LGM a population looking like Beringia, only later to be replaced by...

https://www.biorxiv.org/content/early/2018/09/20/422295.full.pdf+html This paper points to continuity, shows Basal Eurasian in Central Anatolia at 15.000 yeas ago, roughly 25%, shows some admixture from Iran and Levant, shows special affinity to Iron Gates HG's and rejects gene flow from...

Very nice new paper up. Dynamite: Natufians were only half Basal Eurasian and Basal Eurasian appears to have had no Neanderthal! Furthermore, the CHG part of Steppe appears to be made of Caucasian HG and part Iranian Chalcolithic. Fitted mixture proportions are 52.7% EHG, 18.1% CHG, 29.2%...

The long awaited Ust-Ishim genome has been published. It's DNA is more related to East-Asians than Europeans but equidistant to East-Asians and WHG and MA-1. Y-DNA is K, mtDNA is R*. http://dienekes.blogspot.nl/2014/10/high-coverage-genome-from-45000-year.html The supplementary information...

I was looking at the map of the spread of R1b. It makes parts of Kazachstan and Iran the source of R1b, obviously due to the existence of people carrying M-343. However, the Kazach source of these R1b are the so called "Kazach Kurds", Kurds that were deported by Stalin from the Caucasus, to wit...

A bit more information on the Ust-Ishim find: https://mcidublin.conference-services.net/reports/template/onetextabstract.xml?xsl=template/onetextabstract.xsl&conferenceID=3958&abstractID=811773 Coming from abstracts from a conference that both Davidski and Dienekes link to...

Hi forum, Recently genetic information from two mesolithic hunter-gatherer burials from La Brana in northern Spain has been published. I have read a number of articles about it and I am confused by the results. The main reason for my confusion lies in the fact that the la Brana skeleton seem...
