Genetic variation in North Africa and Eurasia: neolithic demic diffusion vs. Paleolithic colonisation.

American journal of physical anthropology - 1 Oct 1994

Barbujani G, Pilastro A, De Domenico S, Renfrew C

Abstract excerpt

The hypothesis that both genetic and linguistic similarities among Eurasian and North African populations are due to demic diffusion of neolithic farmers is tested against a wide database of allele frequencies. Demic diffusion of farming and languages from the Near East should have determined clines in areas defined by linguistic criteria; the alternative hypothesis of cultural transmission does not predict...
