Hunter-gatherer admixture facilitated natural selection in Neolithic European farmers

2022-09-06

Abstract excerpt

Ancient DNA has revealed multiple episodes of admixture in human prehistory during geographic expansions associated with cultural innovations. One important example is the expansion of Neolithic agricultural groups out of the Near East into Europe, and their consequent admixture with Mesolithic hunter-gatherers. Ancient genomes from this period provide an opportunity to study the role of admixture in providing new...
