Our researchers described the genetic identity of the oldest human-made hybrid animal called “kunga”, a 4,500-year-old equid which was bred for warfare in ancient Mesopotamia. The study concludes…
The newest article by our researchers questions genetic relatedness among co-burials in domestic buildings using 59 ancient genomes from Neolithic Anatolia. The results suggest non-biological kinship patterns in…
The latest article by our researchers suggests that sheep were domesticated in different areas, along with the first sheep domesticated in Anatolia ten thousand years ago. The article…
In their latest study, our researchers produced 35 ancient genomes from Anatolia, Greece, Georgia, Azerbaijan and Iran ranging from ~7,350 BCE to 200 CE. They found that genetic…
