Wheat, barley and cattle reached Gansu around 4,000 years ago. Ancient DNA from 149 people at 11 sites finds no western Eurasian ancestry at all. Though the crops moved; farmers didn’t. #ancientDNA #archaeology #archaeogenetics https://www.anthropology.net/p/western-crops-reached-gansu-without

Ancient DNA analysis reveals Wiltshire’s #UptonLovell #Shaman was a woman
Exclusive: Analysis offers ‘smoking gun evidence’ that overturns previous assumption that bronze age individual was maleThere are quite a few such cases where the analysis of #ancientDNA has led to a #gender reassignment, exposed the tendency of previous research to assume important people to have been male until proven otherwise. See my recent feature: https://proseandpassion.blogspot.com/2025/11/prehistoric-women-ruled.html

“The HLD 6 mandible provides further support for the high morphological diversity during late Middle Pleistocene hominin evolution. With these findings, it is possible that modern human morphologies are present as early as 300 ka and earlier than the emergence of modern humans in East Asia.” #isogg #dna #ancientdna #hominid #geneadons
