The petrous bone holds the best ancient DNA in the body and paleogenomics is consuming it at a remarkable pace. A new study from Argentina finds CT scanning doesn’t compromise aDNA quality, making the case for imaging before any destructive analysis. #AncientDNA #Bioarchaeology #Paleogenomics https://www.anthropology.net/p/scan-before-you-sample-micro-ct-imaging

A new study flips what we thought we knew about Neanderthal-human interbreeding. It wasn’t random, and it wasn’t balanced. The X chromosome tells a strange, specific story. #HumanEvolution #Neanderthals #Paleogenomics https://www.anthropology.net/p/the-x-chromosome-that-rewrote-what

Scientists sequence a woolly rhino genome from a 14,400-year-old wolf’s stomach
Fortunately for paleogeneticists, wolf puppies don’t chew their food thoroughly.

Ancient wolves found on a remote Baltic island show signs of human provisioning, injury care, and isolation. Their presence hints at overlooked forms of wolf management long before true domestication. #Archaeology #Paleogenomics #Wolves #HumanEvolution https://www.anthropology.net/p/the-wolves-who-crossed-the-water

#Paleogenomics: #humans and #dogs spread across Eurasia together
((well it would have been surprising if dogs had spread on their own ...))
A genomic study shows that over the last 10,000 years, diverse Eurasian cultures kept and spread genetically distinct dog populations.https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/1105503 #science #genome #ancientDNA #domestication #canines #pets

"Paleogenomics study shows humans and dogs spread across Eurasia together
Dogs have been part of human societies across Eurasia for at least 20,000 years, accompanying us through many social and cultural upheavals.
A new study by an international team, published in the journal Science, and led by Laurent Frantz, paleogeneticist at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich (LMU) and Queen Mary University of London (QMUL), shows that the spread of new cultures across Eurasia, with different lifeways, was often associated with the spread of specific dog populations.
Scientists from LMU, QMUL, the Kunming Institute of Zoology and Lanzhou University in China, and the University of Oxford, sequenced and analyzed the genomes of 17 ancient dogs from Siberia, East Asia, and the Central Asian Steppe—including, for the first time, specimens from China.
Important cultural changes occurred in these regions over the past 10,000 years, driven by the dispersal of hunter-gatherers, farmers, and pastoralists. The specimens came from archaeological sites between 9,700 and 870 years old. In addition, the researchers included publicly available genomes from 57 ancient and 160 modern dogs in their analyses."
