Although the first ancient DNA molecules were extracted more than three decades ago, the
first ancient nuclear genomes could only be characterized after high-throughput sequencing …

In less than a decade, analyses of ancient genomes have transformed our understanding of
the Indigenous peopling and population history of the Americas. These studies have shown …

More than two hundred papers have reported genome-wide data from ancient humans.
While the raw data for the vast majority are fully publicly available testifying to the …

Our understanding of population history in deep time has been assisted by fitting admixture
graphs (AGs) to data: models that specify the ordering of population splits and mixtures …

Advances in the isolation and sequencing of ancient DNA have begun to reveal the
population histories of both people and dogs. Over the last 10,000 y, the genetic signatures …

Recent advancements in DNA sequencing technologies and laboratory preparation
protocols have rapidly expanded the scope of ancient DNA research over the past decade …

Our understanding of prehistoric societal organization at the family level is still limited. Here,
we generated genome data from 32 individuals from an approximately 3,800-y-old burial …

The sequencing of modern and ancient genomes from around the world has revolutionized
our understanding of human history and evolution. However, the problem of how best to …

" Sometime before 15,000 years ago, a band of hunter-gatherers arrived in Northeast Asia.
They continued east, becoming the first people to set foot in the Americas. They soon found …

The genetic prehistory of human populations in Central America is largely unexplored
leaving an important gap in our knowledge of the global expansion of humans. We report …
