CULTURAL GENESIS AND ETHNIC PROCESSES IN CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPE IN THE 3RD MILLENNIUM BC: YAMNAYA, CORDED WARE, FATYANOVO AND ABASHEVO CULTURES

JOURNAL OF ANCIENT HISTORY AND ARCHAEOLOGY, 2022
There are two main hypotheses about the localization of the Indo-European homeland. The first connects the spread of the Indo-Europeans with the migrations of the kurgan cultures of the Ponto-Caspian steppes, primarily the Yamnaya. Therefore, the hypothesis was called “kurgan”.

Population, culture history, and the dynamics of change in European prehistory★

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, Volume 30, Issue 4, Page 1085-1101, December 2024.
Abstract Despite many attacks on its shortcomings, culture history has remained in practice the dominant framework for describing and interpreting European prehistory. It has gained even more salience in recent years because the new information coming from ancient DNA about the genetic ancestry of individuals in prehistory seems to show that this ...

Genome‐wide population affinities and signatures of adaptation in hydruntines, sussemiones and Asian wild asses

Molecular Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 19, October 2024.
Abstract The extremely rich palaeontological record of the horse family, also known as equids, has provided many examples of macroevolutionary change over the last ~55 Mya. This family is also one of the most documented at the palaeogenomic level, with hundreds of ancient genomes sequenced.

Male-biased migration from East Africa introduced pastoralism into southern Africa

BMC Biology, 2021
Background Hunter-gatherer lifestyles dominated the southern African landscape up to ~ 2000 years ago, when herding and farming groups started to arrive in the area. First, herding and livestock, likely of East African origin, appeared in southern Africa,

THE TWILIGHT OF THE GODS? GENOMIC HISTORY AND THE RETURN OF RACE IN THE STUDY OF THE ANCIENT MEDITERRANEAN

History and Theory, Volume 63, Issue 1, Page 45-70, March 2024.
ABSTRACT This article discusses the impact of genomic history, a subdiscipline that emerged in the study of the ancient Mediterranean in the 2010s. In 2014, scientists first published a method for extracting genetic material, which they christened aDNA (ancient DNA), from ancient human remains in hot climates.
