The ancient cline of haplogroup K implies that the Neolithic transition in Europe was mainly demic. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2017 Using a database with the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) of 513 Neolithic individuals, we quantify the space-time variation of the frequency of haplogroup K, previously proposed as a relevant Neolithic marker.
