TL;DR: It is found that all individuals derive at least a few percent of their genomes from admixture with non-Khoisan populations that began ∼1,200 years ago, supporting the hypothesis of an ancient link between southern and eastern Africa.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The study shows that the population history of southern Africa has been complex, with different immigrating groups mixing to different degrees with the autochthonous populations, and a significant increase in the intensity of the sex‐biased gene flow from north to south may reflect changes in the social dynamics between Khoisan and Bantu groups over time.

Genetic structure and sex-biased gene flow in the history of southern African populations

TL;DR: The Bantu expansion had a notable genetic impact in southern Africa, and it is confirmed that in this region it was probably a rapid, male-dominated expansion, and a significant increase in the intensity of sex-biased gene flow from north to south is found.
