Investigating population continuity with ancient DNA under a spatially explicit simulation framework

Investigating population continuity with ancient DNA under a spatially explicit simulation framework

Abstract Background Recent advances in sequencing technologies have allowed for the retrieval of ancient DNA data (aDNA) from skeletal remains, providing direct genetic snapshots from diverse periods of human prehistory. Comparing samples taken in the same region but at different times, hereafter ca...
