Recent selection of candidate genes for mammal domestication in Europeans and language change in Europe: a hypothesis

2019-07-04

Abstract excerpt

Human evolution resulted from changes in our biology, behavior, and culture. One source of these changes has been hypothesized to be our self-domestication (that is, the development in humans of features commonly found in domesticated strains of mammals, seemingly as a result of selection for reduced aggression). Signals of domestication, notably brain size reduction, have increased in recent times. In this paper...
