Inferring linguistic transmission between generations at the scale of individuals
Historical linguistics strongly benefited from recent methodological advances inspired by phylogenetics. Nevertheless, no available method uses contemporaneous within-population linguistic diversity to reconstruct the history of human populations. Here, we developed an approach inspired from population genetics to perform historical linguistic inferences from linguistic data sampled at the individual scale, within a population. We built four with…
Du bon usage de la vodka
La culture de la vodka est très différente de celle du vin. La vodka ne se différenciant pas par des terroirs et n'ayant aucune saveur particulière, on ne la boit pas pour son goût, mais pour ses effets. Un rituel presque immuable permet de partager et de maintenir une agréable griserie collective. La succession codifiée des toasts, appelés par des formules consacrées, renforce la cohésion des convives

Sex‐specific genetic diversity is shaped by cultural factors in Inner Asian human populations
OBJECTIVES: Sex-specific genetic structures have been previously documented worldwide in humans, even though causal factors have not always clearly been identified. In this study, we investigated the impact of ethnicity, geography and social organization on the sex-specific genetic structure in Inner Asia. Furthermore, we explored the process of ethnogenesis in multiple ethnic groups. METHODS: We sampled DNA in Central and Northern Asia from 39 p…
A Central Asian Language Survey
We have documented language varieties (either Turkic or Indo-European) spoken in 23 test sites by 88 informants belonging to the major ethnic groups of Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan (Karakalpaks, Kazakhs, Kyrgyz, Tajiks, Uzbeks, Yaghnobis). The recorded linguistic material concerns 176 words of the extended Swadesh list and will be made publically available with the publication of this paper. Phonological diversity is measured by the Leve…
No Evidence of Neandertal mtDNA Contribution to Early Modern Humans
The retrieval of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences from four Neandertal fossils from Germany, Russia, and Croatia has demonstrated that these individuals carried closely related mtDNAs that are not found among current humans. However, these results do not definitively resolve the question of a possible Neandertal contribution to the gene pool of modern humans since such a contribution might have been erased by genetic drift or by the continuous…
