    Genetic study Bronze Age community from Southern Italy

    I2 man here! So glad all those R1b, J2 and E-V13 and E-V22 didn't interrupt me.

    Hi everyone: My Ancestry update

    Genomic diversity and structure of prehistoric alpine individuals from the Tyrolean Iceman’s territory

    I don't think I have seen a thread about this paper. Indeed interesting study. Thanks

    Genetic study Whole-genome ancestry of an Old Kingdom Egyptian

    Hi Philjames100: Thanks for the interesting post. These leaked samples, are these the ones from that EURAC paper that has ancient Egyptian DNA going back to 4000 BC up to 800 AD? That project from what I read was completed in February of this year (2025) and thus it seems we can expect the final...

    Genetic study The arrival of the Near Eastern ancestry in Central Italy predates the onset of the Roman Empire

    Pax Augusta: I agree using 1 sample to then generalize to all modern Italy is a very simplistic notion. I have not read the paper, but I think if you take this sample from the Late Republic Period and add it to the 11 from the Antonio et al 2019 paper, that gives us now 12 Republican era Roman...

    Genetic study Ancient DNA from the Green Sahara reveals ancestral North African lineage

    Yes, if you read what they said, some ethnic groups south of the Sahara desert stretching from West to Central to East Africa do have admixture from non-African sources. For example, the Fulani would be one, likely the peoples in Chad, etc. In fact, the paper actually documents that the Fulani...

    Genetic study Ancient DNA from the Green Sahara reveals ancestral North African lineage

    From the paper, which is all I reported using the analysis they did using f4 statistics per their paper. "We next explored the direct genetic affinity between Takarkori and the OoA ancestry found in all non-African modern humans, in contrast to African groups. For this, we computed f4...

    Genetic study Ancient DNA from the Green Sahara reveals ancestral North African lineage

    Tautalus: Thanks for the notification on this study. Really some groundbreaking findings. No need to comment on what was already said in previous post. But the Neanderthal admixture analysis in Figure 4 is really telling. The ancient SW Libyan samples from Takarkori are closer genetically to...

    23andMe private user data is up for sale in the Dark Web

    I went ahead and deleted my data from there. However, they still have certain information that they have on file and what do they do with the samples which they match to email address and I think date of birth, etc. One hopes the Courts direct them to destroy all samples of people who deleted...

    Reconstructing past human genetic variation with ancient DNA.

    Hawk: Yes, very Natufian From the paper in Morez (2025, page 210) reports "NUE001 shares the same main ancestry as present-day populations from the Arabian Peninsula as well as BedouinB, which ultimately derived from Levantine Epipaleolithic Natufians" So peoples who had dreams of this sample...

    Reconstructing past human genetic variation with ancient DNA.

    This paper was released today. The ancient Egyptian sample from 2600 BC had mtdna I which is from 21k years ago from West Asia and and E1b y-DNA that is exclusively a North African marker. Genetically similar to Levantine Neolithic populations

    Paleolithic DNA from the Caucasus

    Jovialis: Wow that is really interesting. I think of the WHG, EHG and CHG, the WHG and EHG plot outside the range of where modern Europeans plot. The CHG plotting where modern Southern Italians are is really interesting. Thanks
