This study presents genome-wide data from ancient individuals to trace the genetic legacy of the Balkan refugium during the Last Glacial Maximum and its impact on later European hunter-gatherer populations.

This paper uses ancient DNA data to trace the genetic origins of the Yamnaya culture and links their expansion to the spread of Indo-European languages.

This study analyzes ancient DNA from 204 individuals to show stable population structure in Europe despite high mobility during the historical period.

Ancient DNA from 181 North Eurasian foragers traces a stable west-to-east ancestry gradient and ties Yakutia_LNBA ancestry, with Y-haplogroup N, to Uralic speakers and Seima-Turbino metallurgy.

This study analyzes ancient genomes from the Iron Age central Mediterranean to explore population continuity and mobility, finding significant local contributions and diverse non-local ancestries.

This study analyzes ancient DNA from LBK Neolithic sites to show genetic differences between eastern and western LBK populations, with evidence of patrilocality and no evidence of male-biased WHG admixture.

This study uses genome-wide data from pre-contact Caribbean individuals to trace population movements and genetic continuity across the region.

This study evaluates auditory ossicles as an alternative to cochlea for ancient DNA recovery, finding comparable DNA quality and quantity with less morphological damage.

The paper uses ancient DNA data to trace the genetic origins and spread of Indo-European languages in South and Central Asia.

The paper analyzes ancient DNA from Southeast Asia to show multiple waves of migration, including an initial spread of Austroasiatic languages and a later influx linked to Bronze Age populations.

This study uses ancient DNA data to show that the spread of the Beaker Complex to Britain was primarily due to migration, replacing most Neolithic gene pool and introducing Steppe ancestry.

Ancient DNA from 223 people (12,000-500 BCE) reveals a west-east hunter-gatherer cline, largely unadmixed farmers, Caucasus-shifted Aegean farmers, and Balkan steppe ancestry almost 2,000 years early.

The paper analyzes ancient and present-day genome-wide data to show widespread Paleo-Eskimo ancestry among Na-Dene and Eskimo-Aleut language speakers and presents a model for North America's peopling.
