Recent analysis of ancient DNA has unveiled a profound bond between humans and dogs, tracing back at least 10,000 years. This partnership is evident in the shared migratory patterns across Eurasia, ...
The human genome is a rich, complex record of migration, encounters, and inheritance written over thousands of millennia.
Researchers found that Neanderthals carried excess modern human DNA on their X chromosomes, pointing to predominantly male ...
Most people of non-African ancestry carry about 2% Neanderthal DNA, and researchers report a mirror image pattern with more human DNA on the Neanderthal X chromosome.
New research reveals that ancient interbreeding between humans and Neanderthals shaped our modern human DNA - especially on the X chromosome.
A new study has revealed new insights into the mating patterns and preferences of early humans.

Scientists uncover 7,000-year-old mummies with nonhuman DNA
Two naturally mummified individuals buried roughly 7,000 years ago in a Libyan rock shelter have yielded ancient genomes that reveal a previously unknown, long-isolated North African lineage. The ...
As human groups migrated and settled across Holocene Eurasia, dogs often traveled with them, researchers report in a new genomic study – and sometimes dogs were traded among populations. The study ...
Africa has long been known as the cradle of humanity. Fossils, tools and genetics all point there. Yet the deeper story of how the first modern humans lived, moved and mixed has stayed blurry. Too ...
An analysis of bones from ancient people has discovered DNA that does not directly connect them to any other ancient or ...
A new study in Science suggests Neanderthal men and modern human women interbred more often than assumed, reshaping theories about our DNA. But what drove those ancient pairings remains uncertain.
