Indo-European origins: a computer-simulation test of five hypotheses.

American journal of physical anthropology - 1 Feb 1995

Barbujani G, Sokal R R, Oden N L

Abstract excerpt

Allele frequency distributions were generated by computer simulation of five models of microevolution in European populations. Genetic distances calculated from these distributions were compared with observed genetic distances among Indo-European speakers. The simulated models differ in complexity, but all incorporate random genetic drift and short-range gene flow (isolation by distance). The best correlations...
