Historical human remains identification through maternal and paternal genetic signatures in a founder population with extensive genealogical record
OBJECTIVES: We describe a method to identify human remains excavated from unmarked graves in historical Québec cemeteries by combining parental-lineage genetic markers with the whole-population genealogy of Québec contained in the BALSAC database. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The remains of six men were exhumed from four historical cemeteries in the province of Québec, Canada. DNA was extracted from the remains and genotyped to reveal their mitochondri…
DNA , Ancient
The ancient DNA (aDNA) field started more than thirty years ago as a promising and sometimes controversial scientific field. The limited retrieval of DNA sequences from extinct hominins such as Neanderthals and also from past modern human populations provided information about hominin phylogeny and past migratory movements, respectively. The advent of massive sequencing technologies after 2005 allowed the retrieval of complete genomes from Neande…
A new subclade of mtDNA haplogroup C1 found in icelanders: Evidence of pre‐columbian contact
Although most mtDNA lineages observed in contemporary Icelanders can be traced to neighboring populations in the British Isles and Scandinavia, one may have a more distant origin. This lineage belongs to haplogroup C1, one of a handful that was involved in the settlement of the Americas around 14,000 years ago. Contrary to an initial assumption that this lineage was a recent arrival, preliminary genealogical analyses revealed that the C1 lineage …
The Technological and Typological Behaviour of a Neanderthal Group From El Sidrón Cave (Asturias, Spain)
This paper presents the first detailed analysis of the lithic industry from El Sidrón Cave. Previously we have published other works concerning Anthropology and Palaeogenetics. The lithic assemblage contains 415 artefacts coming from both unofficial and official excavations and is largely flake‐based. The raw material derives from the immediate cave environment, and is mostly chert, with quartzite in a lesser proportion. To date, 67 artefacts hav…
Stature estimation in extinct Aónikenk and the myth of Patagonian gigantism
The Aónikenk were a hunter-gatherer group that inhabited the southern extreme of Patagonia at European Contact and became extinct at the end of the 19th century. The myth of Patagonian gigantism developed around these aborigines from early Spanish explorer accounts. In this study, the postcranial remains belonging to the Aónikenk (Patagonia) and the Selk'nam (Tierra del Fuego) preserved at the Instituto de la Patagonia (UMAG, Chile) have been mea…
