  1. 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 male

    There 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: proseandpassion.blogspot.com/2

  6. New ancient DNA study of 142 medieval Swedish burials finds kids buried with adults were rarely close kin, but were sorted by sex just like adults. #archaeogenetics #medievalarchaeology #ancientDNA anthropology.net/p/equal-in-de

  8. A bit of an interesting historical curiosity: Based on ancient DNA analysis, common burial in Medieval times, including that of children, didn't necessarily have anything to do with being from the same family.

  31. A Mongolian cemetery traced through 6 generations of ancient DNA looked like a family burial ground.

  37.

  39. Ancient Japanese dental calculus just got interesting: researchers found that Edo-period women who practiced ohaguro (tooth blackening) harbored a distinct lineage of an oral archaea, possibly shaped by the iron-rich cosmetic paste. #Anthropology #AncientDNA #OralMicrobiome anthropology.net/p/what-blacke
