  • Carriers of Mitochondrial DNA Macrohaplogroup L3 Basal Lineages Migrated Back to Africa from Asia Around 70,000 Years Ago Vicente M
    Cabrera et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology (2018) 18:98 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12862-018-1211-4 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Carriers of mitochondrial DNA macrohaplogroup L3 basal lineages migrated back to Africa from Asia around 70,000 years ago Vicente M. Cabrera1* , Patricia Marrero2, Khaled K. Abu-Amero3,4 and Jose M. Larruga1 Abstract Background: The main unequivocal conclusion after three decades of phylogeographic mtDNA studies is the African origin of all extant modern humans. In addition, a southern coastal route has been argued for to explain the Eurasian colonization of these African pioneers. Based on the age of macrohaplogroup L3, from which all maternal Eurasian and the majority of African lineages originated, the out-of-Africa event has been dated around 60-70 kya. On the opposite side, we have proposed a northern route through Central Asia across the Levant for that expansion and, consistent with the fossil record, we have dated it around 125 kya. To help bridge differences between the molecular and fossil record ages, in this article we assess the possibility that mtDNA macrohaplogroup L3 matured in Eurasia and returned to Africa as basal L3 lineages around 70 kya. Results: The coalescence ages of all Eurasian (M,N) and African (L3 ) lineages, both around 71 kya, are not significantly different. The oldest M and N Eurasian clades are found in southeastern Asia instead near of Africa as expected by the southern route hypothesis. The split of the Y-chromosome composite DE haplogroup is very similar to the age of mtDNA L3. An Eurasian origin and back migration to Africa has been proposed for the African Y-chromosome haplogroup E.

I just feel the book may aim more towards the academic or undergraduate actually studying this subject rather than the casual, educated reader. The study initially hypothesised that the modern Chinese population evolved from Homo erectus in China but concluded that the Chinese people did in fact evolve and migrate from Africa like the rest of world's population. Roberts' stays with indigenous peoples and her musings on how our ancestors in those areas made their living, relating them to modern day humans. Season 1, Episode 4. Otherwise good, Roberts traveled the world for 6 months meeting experts in paleoanthropology and related fields, looking at human migration patterns and what we know about our progress out of Africa drawing together what we know about that distant set of journeys.

Box 1675, Galveston, TX 77553-1675, USA Correspondence should be addressed to Samuel Mark; [email protected] Received 19 June 2017; Revised 2 October 2017; Accepted 17 October 2017; Published 9 November 2017 Academic Editor: Adalberto R. Santos Copyright © 2017 Samuel Mark. This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. For over a century, it has been widely accepted that leprosy did not exist in the Americas before the arrival of Europeans. This proposition was based on a combination of historical, paleopathological, and representational studies. Further support came from molecular studies in 2005 and 2009 that four Mycobacterium leprae single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and then 16 SNP subtypes correlated with general geographic regions, suggesting the M. leprae subtypes in the Americas were consistent with European strains. Shortly thereafter, a number of studies proposed that leprosy first came to the Americas with human migrations around 12,000 or 13,000 years ago. These studies are based primarily on subsequent molecular data, especially the discovery ofanew leprosy species Mycobacterium lepromatosis and its close association with diffuse lepromatous leprosy, a severe, aggressive form of lepromatous leprosy, which is most common in Mexico and the Caribbean Islands.

  • An Analysis of Marine Shell Ornament Distribution

This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without permission of the author. Human-Material Interaction in the Aurignacian of Europe, 35,000-27,000 BP: An Analysis of Marine Shell Ornament Distribution by Lisa Rogers B.A. (Hons), University of Victoria, 2013 Supervisory Committee Dr. April Nowell, Supervisor Department of Anthropology Dr. Ann Stahl, Departmental Member Department of Anthropology ii Abstract The Aurignacian period (35,000-27,000 BP) is the earliest phase of human occupation in the European Upper Paleolithic. As early inhabitants moved across the landscape they came into contact with others and left behind material traces of these interactions. Ornaments, or beads and pendants, made from marine shells are found in large numbers in Aurignacian assemblages. These objects are particularly useful for exploring the circulation of people and materials, as their presence far from the sea can be indicative of dynamic interactions between materials, individuals, and groups. This research explores the processes of human-material interactions during the Aurignacian based on the shapes of marine shells used as ornaments. More specifically, a network analysis is used to determine whether there are discernible patterns in the geographic distribution of marine shell shapes used for the creation of ornaments.

    PALEOANTHROPOLOGY SOCIETY MEETING ABSTRACTS, HONOLULU, HI, 2-3 APRIL 2013 Latest Miocene Hominin From Kenya, Orrorin tugenensis, Exhibits Intermediate Femoral Morphology Between Earlier Miocene Apes and Later Bipedal Hominins Sergio Almécija, Anatomical Sciences, Stony Brook University, USA Melissa Tallman, Biomedical Sciences, Grand Valley State University, USA David Alba, Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont, SPAIN Marta Pina, Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont, SPAIN Salvador Moyà-Solà, Institut Català de Paleontologia Miquel Crusafont, SPAIN William Jungers, Anatomical Sciences, Stony Brook University, USA Orrorin tugenensis (Kenya, ca. 6 Ma) is one of the earliest putative hominins in the fossil record. The Orrorin hypodigm includes three partial femora, with one of them—BAR 1002’00—preserving most of its proximal morphology and exhibiting inferred adaptations for terrestrial bipedalism. This specimen was originally described as being very human-like, even more so than later hominins, although subsequent multivariate analyses showed that it actually shares a distinctive shape with australopiths. However, some traits of this femur (e.g., greater and lesser trochanteric form) recall the morphology seen in earlier Miocene apes. Here we reassess the morphological affinities of BAR 1002’00 using three-dimensional geometric morphometrics (13 coordinates covering functionally meaningful landmarks of the proximal femur), within an extensive sample of modern humans, great apes, and hylobatids, as well as with fossil hominins, and—for the first time—Miocene apes. Since Miocene apes have been described by some as monkey-like for certain features, we also included a broad sample of cercopithecoid and platyrrhine monkeys (N of total sample=448). Our multivariate results (based on between-group principal components analysis [bgPCA] and phylogenetic methods) indicate that platyrrhines, cercopithecoids, and hominoids can be reliably distinguished from each other, thereby indicating a strong phylogenetic signal in the shape data (p<0.0001).

BMC Biology 2011, 9:2 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1741-7007/9/2 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Inland post-glacial dispersal in East Asia revealed by mitochondrial haplogroup M9a’b Min-Sheng Peng1,2,6, Malliya Gounder Palanichamy3, Yong-Gang Yao4, Bikash Mitra3,5, Yao-Ting Cheng1,2,6, Mian Zhao1,2,6, Jia Liu3, Hua-Wei Wang3, Hui Pan1,2,6, Wen-Zhi Wang1,2,6, A-Mei Zhang4,6, Wen Zhang4,6, Dong Wang4,6, Yang Zou4,6, Yang Yang3, Tapas Kumar Chaudhuri5, Qing-Peng Kong1,2*, Ya-Ping Zhang1,2,3* Abstract Background: Archaeological studies have revealed a series of cultural changes around the Last Glacial Maximum in East Asia; whether these changes left any signatures in the gene pool of East Asians remains poorly indicated. To achieve deeper insights into the demographic history of modern humans in East Asia around the Last Glacial Maximum, we extensively analyzed mitochondrial DNA haplogroup M9a’b, a specific haplogroup that was suggested to have some potential for tracing the migration around the Last Glacial Maximum in East Eurasia. Results: A total of 837 M9a’b mitochondrial DNAs (583 from the literature, while the remaining 254 were newly collected in this study) pinpointed from over 28,000 subjects residing across East Eurasia were studied here. Fifty- nine representative samples were further selected for total mitochondrial DNA sequencing so we could better understand the phylogeny within M9a’b. Based on the updated phylogeny, an extensive phylogeographic analysis was carried out to reveal the differentiation of haplogroup M9a’b and to reconstruct the dispersal histories.
