Family trees are often presented with the oldest generations at the top of the tree and the younger generations at the bottom. An ancestry chart, which is a tree showing the ancestors of an individual and not all members of a family, will more closely resemble a tree in shape, being wider at the top than at the bottom.
A dendrochronology, based on these trees and other bristlecone pine samples, extends back to about 9000 BC, albeit with a single gap of about 500 years. [20] [3] An older bristlecone pine was reportedly discovered by Tom Harlan in 2009, based on a sample core collected in 1957. According to Harlan, the tree was 5,062 years old and still living ...
Pando, a colony of quaking aspen, is one of the oldest-known clonal trees. Recent estimates of its age range up to 14,000 years old, and 18,000 years by the latest (2024) estimate. [1] It is located in Utah, United States. This is a list of the oldest-known trees, as reported in reliable sources. Definitions of what constitutes an individual ...
The individuals living at Ranis had 2.9% Neanderthal ancestry, not dissimilar to most people today, the Nature study found. The new timeline allows scientists to understand better when humans left ...
The 'Old Tjikko' has been recognized as the world's old individual living tree, but the title is a little murky thanks to the cloning process. Pando, a forest in Utah, started with a single ...
This is an index of family trees on the English Wikipedia. It includes noble, politically important, and royal families as well as fictional families and thematic diagrams. This list is organized according to alphabetical order.
It is estimated to have over 5000 rings. If accurate, that would be more than 100 years older than the current record holder. Barichivich said "Only 28 percent of the tree is actually alive, most of which is in the roots, so when people walk across the nearby soil, they're actively damaging the last remaining living parts of the tree."

Old Tjikko [a] is an approximately 9,566 years-old Norway spruce, located in the Dalarna province in Sweden. Old Tjikko originally gained fame as the "world's oldest tree". [1] Old Tjikko is, however, a clonal tree that has regenerated new trunks, branches and roots over millennia rather than an individual tree of great age.
