  6. Nice to see aDNA genetics undoing some stories invented about some of the people found in Pompeii by revealing some of the realities of who they were, how they were related (or in these cases how they were not) and where they came from.

  15. Scientists just found DNA from two human relatives we’ve never found a single fossil of, hiding in modern genomes. One mixed with us in Africa 800,000 years ago; the other reached us secondhand, through Denisovans. #paleoanthropology #humanevolution #ancientDNA anthropology.net/p/two-ghosts-

  25. A cave 4,000m up in Ladakh just revealed a lost population: people with ancestry split almost perfectly between South Asians and Tibetans, mixing began ~2800 years ago, and one still carries a Denisovan altitude gene. #AncientDNA #Paleoanthropology #Archaeogenetics anthropology.net/p/ancient-gen

  33. 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

    theguardian.com/science/2026/j

    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

  43. 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.
