Journal ArticleDOI

The Beaker phenomenon and the genomic transformation of northwest Europe

Iñigo Olalde, +169 more
- 08 Mar 2018 - 
TL;DR: Genome-wide data from 400 Neolithic, Copper Age and Bronze Age Europeans is presented, finding limited genetic affinity between Beaker-complex-associated individuals from Iberia and central Europe, and excludes migration as an important mechanism of spread between these two regions.
Journal ArticleDOI

The genomic history of southeastern Europe

Iain Mathieson, +138 more
- 08 Mar 2018 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that southeastern Europe continued to be a nexus between east and west after the arrival of farmers, with intermittent genetic contact with steppe populations occurring up to 2,000 years earlier than the migrations from the steppe that ultimately replaced much of the population of northern Europe.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Formation of Human Populations in South and Central Asia

Vagheesh M. Narasimhan, +145 more
- 06 Sep 2019 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that Steppe ancestry then integrated further south in the first half of the second millennium BCE, contributing up to 30% of the ancestry of modern groups in South Asia, supporting the idea that the archaeologically documented dispersal of domesticates was accompanied by the spread of people from multiple centers of domestication.
Journal ArticleDOI

The genomic history of the Iberian Peninsula over the past 8000 years.

Iñigo Olalde, +133 more
- 15 Mar 2019 - 
TL;DR: It is revealed that present-day Basques are best described as a typical Iron Age population without the admixture events that later affected the rest of Iberia, and how the ancestry of the peninsula was transformed by gene flow from North Africa and the eastern Mediterranean is document.
Journal ArticleDOI

Parallel palaeogenomic transects reveal complex genetic history of early European farmers.

Mark Lipson, +67 more
- 16 Nov 2017 - 
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.
