Colloquium paper: working toward a synthesis of archaeological, linguistic, and genetic data for inferring African population history.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 11 May 2010

Abstract excerpt

Although Africa is the origin of modern humans, the pattern and distribution of genetic variation and correlations with cultural and linguistic diversity in Africa have been understudied. Recent advances in genomic technology, however, have led to genomewide studies of African samples. In this article, we discuss genetic variation in African populations contextualized with what is known about archaeological and...
