Although the first ancient DNA molecules were extracted more than three decades ago, the
first ancient nuclear genomes could only be characterized after high-throughput sequencing …

New finds in the palaeoanthropological and genomic records have changed our view of the
origins of modern human ancestry. Here we review our current understanding of how the …

More than two hundred papers have reported genome-wide data from ancient humans.
While the raw data for the vast majority are fully publicly available testifying to the …

Modern humans have populated Europe for more than 45,000 years,. Our knowledge of the
genetic relatedness and structure of ancient hunter-gatherers is however limited, owing to …

Our understanding of population history in deep time has been assisted by fitting admixture
graphs (AGs) to data: models that specify the ordering of population splits and mixtures …

The grey wolf (Canis lupus) was the first species to give rise to a domestic population, and
they remained widespread throughout the last Ice Age when many other large mammal …

The deep population history of East Asia remains poorly understood owing to a lack of
ancient DNA data and sparse sampling of present-day people,. Here we report genome …

Modern humans appeared in Europe by at least 45,000 years ago,,,–, but the extent of their
interactions with Neanderthals, who disappeared by about 40,000 years ago, and their …

Human genetic history in East Asia is poorly understood. To clarify population relationships,
we obtained genome-wide data from 26 ancient individuals from northern and southern East …

We assembled genome-wide data from 271 ancient Iberians, of whom 176 are from the
largely unsampled period after 2000 BCE, thereby providing a high-resolution time transect …
