Characterization of population structure from the mitochondrial DNA vis-à-vis language and geography in Papua New Guinea.

American journal of physical anthropology - 1 Aug 2010

Lee Esther J, Koki George, Merriwether D Andrew

Abstract excerpt

Situated along a corridor linking the Asian continent with the outer islands of the Pacific, Papua New Guinea has long played a key role in understanding the initial peopling of Oceania. The vast diversity in languages and unique geographical environments in the region have been central to the debates on human migration and the degree of interaction between the Pleistocene settlers and newer migrants. To better...
