Genetic contributions to variation in human stature in prehistoric Europe

S. L. Cox, C. B. Ruff, R. M. Maier, I. Mathieson

This study compares genetic and skeletal height changes in prehistoric Europe over 38,000 years, showing genetic predictions align with skeletal data in most periods but not all.
