The approximately 40,000-year-old modern human Oase 2 was found, in 2015, to have had 6–9% (point estimate 7.3%) Neanderthal DNA, indicating a Neanderthal ancestor up to four to six generations earlier, but this hybrid population does not appear to have made a substantial contribution to the genomes of later Europeans. [71]
It has been found that 50% of the Neanderthal genome is present among people in India, [18] and 41% has been found in Icelanders. [19] Previously it was found that about 20% of the Neanderthal genome was found in modern Eurasians, [20] but the figure was also estimated at a third. [21]
This is a list of dates associated with the prehistoric peopling of the world (first known presence of Homo sapiens). The list is divided into four categories, Middle Paleolithic (before 50,000 years ago), Upper Paleolithic (50,000 to 12,500 years ago), Holocene (12,500 to 500 years ago) and Modern ( Age of Sail and modern exploration).
The Neanderthal DNA found in modern human genomes has long raised questions about ancient interbreeding. New studies offer a timeline of when that occurred and when ancient humans left Africa.
Remains of a Neanderthal who may have roamed the Earth 42,000 years ago offer insight into an isolated people
[54] [55] J2 clades attain peak frequencies in the North-West and South India [54] and is found at 19% within South Indian castes, 11% in North Indian castes and 12% in Pakistan. [38] In South India, the presence of J2 is higher among middle castes at 21%, followed by upper castes at 18.6% and lower castes at 14%. [38]
While the genomes sequenced from the Ranis individuals are the oldest Homo sapiens ones, scientists have previously recovered and analyzed DNA from Neanderthal remains that date back 400,000 years ...
More than 90% of the inscribed objects and seals that were discovered were found at ancient urban centres along the Indus river in Pakistan, mainly in Harappa and Mohenjo-daro. [ 15 ] [ 16 ] More than 50 IVC burial sites have been found, including at Rakhigarhi (first site with genetic testing ), Mohenjo-Daro , Harappa , Farmana , Kalibangan ...
