Hunter-gatherer genomes reveal diverse demographic trajectories following the rise of farming in East Africa

2019-01-11

Abstract excerpt

A major outstanding question in human prehistory is the fate of hunting and gathering populations following the rise of agriculture and pastoralism. Genomic analysis of ancient and contemporary Europeans suggests that autochthonous groups were either absorbed into or replaced by expanding farmer populations. Many of the hunter-gatherer populations persisting today live in Africa, perhaps because agropastoral trans...
