TL;DR: Evidence is observed of a higher level of diversity and lower level of population structure in western South America compared to eastern South America, a relative lack of differentiation between Mesoamerican and Andean populations, and a partial agreement on a local scale between genetic similarity and the linguistic classification of populations.

TL;DR: An analysis of admixture in thirteen Mestizo populations from seven countries in Latin America based on data for 678 autosomal and 29 X-chromosome microsatellites found extensive variation in Native American and European ancestry among populations and individuals and evidence that admixture across Latin America has often involved predominantly European men and both Native and African women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Y-Chromosome Evidence for Differing Ancient Demographic Histories in the Americas
Maria Cátira Bortolini,Francisco Mauro Salzano,Mark G. Thomas,Steven Stuart,Selja P. K. Nasanen,Claiton H.D. Bau,Mara H. Hutz,Zulay Layrisse,Maria Luiza Petzl-Erler,Luiza T. Tsuneto,Kim Hill,A. M.

TL;DR: Age estimates based on Y-chromosome microsatellite diversity place the initial settlement of the American continent at approximately 14,000 years ago, in relative agreement with the age of well-established archaeological evidence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Female Subsistence Strategies Among Ache Hunter- Gatherers of Eastern Paraguay
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present data on the forest activities of Ache women that show that differences in parental investment partially account for variation in food acquisition among individual women, and also suggest that childcare constraints are important in understanding the sexual division of labor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Food transfers among Hiwi foragers of Venezuela : Tests of reciprocity
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used path modeling to understand the behavioral ecology of food sharing in the Hiwi of Venezuela and found that characteristics of food resources and acquirers determine how much is transfered to others.
