30,000-year-old Pyrenees woman carried Central European DNA
Original: A 30,000-year-old woman from a Pyrenees cave carried Central European DNA
Genetic analysis of a 30,000-year-old woman whose remains were found in a cave in the Pyrenees shows she carried DNA linked to Central European populations. The finding adds to evidence that early modern humans in Ice Age Europe moved and mixed across long distances, connecting western and central parts of the continent far earlier than once assumed.
Why now: New ancient DNA research is drawing attention for reshaping what is known about early human migration in Europe.
