TL;DR: Investigating the population dynamics of Neolithization across Europe using a high-resolution genome-wide ancient DNA dataset with a total of 180 samples finds that genetic diversity was shaped predominantly by local processes, with varied sources and proportions of hunter-gatherer ancestry among the three regions and through time.

TL;DR: Analysis of palaeogenetic and isotopic data from Neolithic human skeletons from the Blätterhöhle burial site in Germany indicates that the descendants of Mesolithic people maintained a foraging lifestyle in Central Europe for more than 2000 years after the arrival of farming societies.

TL;DR: This paper showed that European domestic pigs dating from 7,100 to 6,000 y BP possessed both Near Eastern and European nuclear ancestry, while later pigs possessed no more than 4% Near Eastern ancestry, indicating that gene flow from European wild boars resulted in a near complete disappearance of Near East ancestry.

TL;DR: A correlation of AMH with the Aurignacian remains to be proven is proven, and the general idea of a long coexistence of Neandertals and AMH in Europe may be questioned.

TL;DR: It is found that the Jonzac Neanderthal had isotopic values consistent with a diet in which the main protein sources were large herbivores, particularly bovids and horses.
