Genomic evidence for the Pleistocene and recent population history of Native Americans
Genetic history of Native Americans Several theories have been put forth as to the origin and timing of when Native American ancestors entered the Americas. To clarify this controversy, Raghavan et al. examined the genomic variation among ancient and modern individuals from Asia and the Americas. There is no evidence for multiple waves of entry or recurrent gene flow with Asians in northern populations. The earliest migrations occurred no earlier…
The genetic prehistory of the New World Arctic
Arctic genetics comes in from the cold Despite a well-characterized archaeological record, the genetics of the people who inhabit the Arctic have been unexplored. Raghavan et al. sequenced ancient and modern genomes of individuals from the North American Arctic (see the Perspective by Park). Analyses of these genomes indicate that the Arctic was colonized 6000 years ago by a migration separate from the one that gave rise to other Native American …
The Palaeoindian-Archaic transition in North America
The transition from Palaeoindian to Archaic societies in North America is often viewed as a linear progression over a brief but time-transgressive period. New evidence from the Wilson-Leonard site in Texas suggests social experimentation by Palaeoindians over a 2500-year period eventually resulted in Archaic societies. The process was neither short nor linear, and the evidence shows that different but contemporaneous lifeways existed in a variety…
Alluvial Geology and Archaeological Potential of the Texas Southern High Plains
Alluvial geology studies indicate that valleys crossing the Texas High Plains have significant archaeological and paleontological potentials. Paleo-Indian and Ceramic/Historic sites are unexpectedly common, and are associated with ancient lake and marsh environments, spring deposits, entrenched meander necks, and buried strath terraces. Paleogeologic maps illustrate prehistoric topography and relate known sites to depositional environments. Archa…
