African population history: an ancient DNA perspective.

Current opinion in genetics & development - 1 Jun 2020

Vicente Mário, Schlebusch Carina M

Abstract excerpt

The history of human populations in Africa is complex and includes various demographic events that influenced patterns of genetic variation across the continent. Through genetic studies of modern-day, and most recently, ancient African genetic variation, it became evident that deep African history is captured by the relationships among hunter-gatherers. Furthermore, it was shown that agriculture had a large...
