    Humans settled the Caribbean ~6,000 years ago, with ceramic use and intensified agriculture marking a shift from the Archaic to the Ceramic Age ~2,500 years ago. We report genome-wide data from 174 individuals from The Bahamas, Hispaniola, Puerto Rico, Curaçao, and Venezuela co-analyzed with published data. Archaic Age Caribbean people derive from a deeply divergent population closest to Central and northern South Americans; contrary to previous work, we find no support for ancestry contributed by a population related to North Americans. Archaic lineages were >98% replaced by a genetically homogeneous ceramic-using population related to Arawak-speakers from northeast South America who moved through the Lesser Antilles and into the Greater Antilles at least 1,700 years ago, introducing ancestry that is still present. Ancient Caribbean people avoided close kin unions despite limited mate pools reflecting small effective population sizes which we estimate to be a minimum of Ne=500-1500 and a maximum of Ne=1530-8150 on the combined islands of Puerto Rico and Hispaniola in the dozens of generations before the analyzed individuals lived. Census sizes are unlikely to be more than ten-fold larger than effective population sizes, so previous estimates of hundreds of thousands of people are too large. Confirming a small, interconnected Ceramic Age population, we detect 19 pairs of cross-island cousins, close relatives ~75 kilometers apart in Hispaniola, and low genetic differentiation across islands. Genetic continuity across transitions in pottery styles reveals that cultural changes during the Ceramic Age were not driven by migration of genetically-differentiated groups from the mainland but instead reflected interactions within an interconnected Caribbean world.

    High continuity of forager ancestry in the Neolithic of the eastern Maghreb
    (SpringerNature) Reich, David; Lipson, Mark; Ringbauer, Harald; Mallick, Swapan; Rohland-Pinello, Nadin
    Ancient DNA from the Mediterranean region has revealed long-range connections and population transformations associated with the spread of food producing economies [1-6]. However, in contrast to Europe, genetic data from this key transition in northern Africa are limited, and have only been available from the far western Maghreb (Morocco) [1-3]. Here, we present genome-wide data for nine individuals from the Later Stone Age (LSA) through the Neolithic in Algeria and Tunisia. The earliest individuals cluster with pre-Neolithic people of the western Maghreb (~15000-7600 Before Present (BP)), showing that this “Maghrebi” ancestry profile had a substantial geographic and temporal extent. At least one individual from Djebba (Tunisia), dating to ~8000 BP, harbored ancestry from European hunter-gatherers, likely reflecting early Holocene movement across the Strait of Sicily. Later Neolithic people from the eastern Maghreb retained largely local forager ancestry together with smaller contributions from European farmers (by ~7000 BP) and Levantine groups (by ~6800 BP), and were thus far less impacted by external gene flow than were populations in other parts of the Neolithic Mediterranean.

    The genetic origin of the Indo-Europeans

    The Yamnaya archaeological complex appeared around 3300 BCE across the steppes north of the Black and Caspian Seas, and by 3000 BCE reached its maximal extent from Hungary in the west to Kazakhstan in the east. To localize Yamnaya origins among preceding Eneolithic people, we assembled ancient DNA from 428 individuals, demonstrating three genetic clines. A “Caucasus-Lower Volga” (CLV) Cline suffused with Caucasus hunter-gatherer1 ancestry extended between a Caucasus Neolithic southern end, and a northern end at Berezhnovka along the Lower Volga river. Bidirectional gene flow created intermediate populations, such as north Caucasus Maikop people, and those at Remontnoye on the steppe. The “Volga Cline” was formed as CLV people mixed with upriver populations of Eastern hunter-gatherer2 ancestry, creating hyper-variable groups as at Khvalynsk. The “Dnipro Cline” was formed as CLV people moved west, mixing with Ukraine Neolithic hunter-gatherers3 along the Dnipro river to establish Serednii Stih groups from whom Yamnaya ancestors formed around 4000 BCE and grew explosively after 3750-3350 BCE. CLV people contributed four-fifths of the ancestry of the Yamnaya, and, entering Anatolia likely from the east, at least a tenth of the ancestry of Bronze Age Central Anatolians, where Hittite was spoken4,5. We thus propose that the final unity of the speakers of “Proto-Indo-Anatolian”, the language ancestral to both Anatolian and Indo-European, was among CLV people sometime between 4400-4000 BCE.

    Present-day people from England and Wales harbour more ancestry derived from Early European Farmers (EEF) than people of the Early Bronze Age1. To understand this, we generated genome-wide data from 793 individuals, increasing data from the Middle to Late Bronze and Iron Age in Britain by 12-fold, and Western and Central Europe by 3.5-fold. Between 1000-875 BCE, EEF ancestry increased in southern Britain (England and Wales) but not northern Britain (Scotland) due to incorporation of migrants who arrived at this time and over previous centuries, and who were genetically most similar to ancient individuals from France. These migrants contributed about half the ancestry of Iron Age people of England and Wales, thereby creating a plausible vector for the spread of early Celtic languages into Britain. These patterns are part of a broader trend of EEF ancestry becoming more similar across Central and Western Europe in the Middle to Late Bronze Age, coincident with archaeological evidence of intensified cultural exchange2-6. There was comparatively less gene flow from continental Europe during the Iron Age, and Britain’s independent genetic trajectory is also reflected in the rise of the allele conferring lactase persistence to ~50% by this time compared to ~7% in Central Europe where it rose rapidly in frequency only a millennium later. This suggests that dairy products were used in qualitatively different ways in Britain and in Central Europe over this period.
