TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyse genome-wide data from 51 Eurasians from ~45,000-7,000 years ago and find that the proportion of Neanderthal DNA decreased from 3-6% to around 2%, consistent with natural selection against Neanderthal variants in modern humans.

TL;DR: This work uses mitochondrial genome sequences from ten securely dated ancient modern humans spanning 40,000 years as calibration points for the mitochondrial clock, thus yielding a direct estimate of the mitochondrial substitution rate and implies a separation of non-Africans from the most closely related sub-Saharan African mitochondrial DNAs that occurred less than 62-95 kya.

TL;DR: In this paper, stable isotope (d 18 O and d 13 C) records of early-middle Holocene land snail shells from the archaeological deposits of Grotta di Latronico 3 (LTR3; southern Italy) with modern shell isotopic data were compared.

TL;DR: In this article, an analizzata l'industria litica dei livelli mesolitici della Grotta 3 di Latronico (Basilicata, Italia) fa parte di un gruppo di grotte situate a circa 760 m di quota in the Fiume Sinni in provincia di Potenza.

TL;DR: In this paper, a suite of analyses made on human dental material from the Late Palaeolithic to Neolithic strata of the cave site of Grotta Continenza situated in the Fucino Basin of the Abruzzo region of central Italy is presented.
