Testing support for the northern and southern dispersal routes out of Africa: an analysis of Levantine and southern Arabian populations.

American journal of physical anthropology - 1 Dec 2017

Vyas Deven N, Al-Meeri Ali, Mulligan Connie J

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: The Northern Dispersal Route (NDR) and Southern Dispersal Route (SDR) are hypothesized to have been used by modern humans in the dispersal out of Africa. The NDR follows the Nile into Northeast Africa and crosses the Red Sea into the Levant. The SDR emerges from the Horn of Africa and crosses the Bab el-Mandeb into southern Arabia. In this study, we analyze genetic data from populations living along...
