Northeast African genomic variation shaped by the continuity of indigenous groups and Eurasian migrations.

PLoS genetics - 1 Aug 2017

Abstract excerpt

Northeast Africa has a long history of human habitation, with fossil-finds from the earliest anatomically modern humans, and housing ancient civilizations. The region is also the gate-way out of Africa, as well as a portal for migration into Africa from Eurasia via the Middle East and the Arabian Peninsula. We investigate the population history of northeast Africa by genotyping ~3.9 million SNPs in 221...
