Introducing a Hermeneutics of Cispicion
A hermeneutics of cispicion challenges cisnormative presuppositions that shape and, at times, occlude the variations in gender and sex exhibited by key characters in the ancestral narrative of Genesis 12–50. It charts the progression from Paul Ricoeur's hermeneutics of suspicion, through liberation, feminist and queer approaches. Focusing on Deryn Guest's queer and trans hermeneutics, Henderson-Merrygold then offers a new strategy for reading aga…
Evidence for Pleistocene gene flow through the ice-free corridor from extinct horses and camels from Natural Trap Cave, Wyoming
An age-depth model and revised stratigraphy of vertebrate-bearing units in Natural Trap Cave, Wyoming
Excavations at Natural Trap Cave (NTC) began in the mid-1970's and quickly yielded evidence of a diverse steppe fauna that existed during the Last Glacial Maximum (MIS 2) along the western slope of the Bighorn Mountains in north central Wyoming. NTC is a karst pit cave with a 24.5 m vertical drop into a roughly 43 m wide bell-shaped ‘Main Chamber’ and during the course of early excavations a plugged entrance to a fossil-bearing ‘Lower Chamber’ wa…

When did Homo sapiens first reach Southeast Asia and Sahul?
Anatomically modern humans ( Homo sapiens , AMH) began spreading across Eurasia from Africa and adjacent Southwest Asia about 50,000–55,000 years ago ( ca . 50–55 ka). Some have argued that human genetic, fossil, and archaeological data indicate one or more prior dispersals, possibly as early as 120 ka. A recently reported age estimate of 65 ka for Madjedbebe, an archaeological site in northern Sahul (Pleistocene Australia–New Guinea), if correct…
Reconstructing the Deep Population History of Central and South America
We report genome-wide ancient DNA from 49 individuals forming four parallel time transects in Belize, Brazil, the Central Andes, and the Southern Cone, each dating to at least ∼9,000 years ago. The common ancestral population radiated rapidly from just one of the two early branches that contributed to Native Americans today. We document two previously unappreciated streams of gene flow between North and South America. One affected the Central And…
Consequences of colonialism
Nearly all Indigenous populations today suffer from worse health than their non‐Indigenous counterparts, and despite interventions against known factors, this health “gap” has not improved. The human microbiome—the beneficial, diverse microbial communities that live on and within the human body—is a crucial component in developing and maintaining normal physiological health. Disrupting this ecosystem has repercussions for microbial functionality,…

From the field to the laboratory
High-Throughput DNA Sequencing (HTS) technologies have changed the way in which we detect and assess DNA contamination in ancient DNA studies. Researchers use computational methods to mine the large quantity of sequencing data to detect characteristic patterns of DNA damage, and to evaluate the authenticity of the results. We argue that unless computational methods can confidently separate authentic ancient DNA sequences from contaminating DNA th…
Ancient Microbial DNA in Dental Calculus
Ancient human migrations provide the critical genetic background to historical and contemporary human demographic patterns. However, our ability to infer past human migration events, especially those that occurred over rapid timescales, is often limited. A key example is the peopling of Polynesia, where the timing is relatively well defined, but the exact routes taken during the final stages and the source populations are not. Here, we discuss th…
Ancient mitochondrial DNA provides high-resolution time scale of the peopling of the Americas
Native American population history is reexamined using a large data set of pre-Columbian mitochondrial genomes.
Closing the gap
The chronology of the extinction of the Balearic fossil bovid Myotragus balearicus in Mallorca and Menorca has been under discussion since its discovery in 1909, and especially in the last decades, thanks to the radiocarbon dates that have been obtained from several deposits of the island of Mallorca. Here, we present new radiocarbon dates of M. balearicus bones (including the most recent date ever obtained for the species, 4035 ± 32 BP, 2830–247…
Massive migration from the steppe was a source for Indo-European languages in Europe
Genome-wide patterns of selection in 230 ancient Eurasians
Amplification of TruSeq ancient DNA libraries with AccuPrime Pfx
Recent developments in high-throughput sequencing (HTS) technologies have enabled the reconstruction of complete genome sequence and nucleosome and methylation maps from ancient individuals. A diversity of degradation reactions affect DNA molecules after an organism dies, introducing specific nucleotide misincorporation patterns in HTS data that are typically exploited to distinguish modern contaminants and authentic DNA templates. In this study,…

Ancient DNA Reveals Key Stages in the Formation of Central European Mitochondrial Genetic Diversity
The Origins of Europeans To investigate the genetic origins of modern Europeans, Brandt et al. (p. 257 ) examined ancient mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and were able to identify genetic differences in 364 Central Europeans spanning the early Neolithic to the Early Bronze Age. Observed changes in mitochondrial haplotypes corresponded with hypothesized human migration across Eurasia and revealed the complexity of the demographic changes and evidence of…

The King's Four Highways
Legal compilations of the twelfth century include the idea that there were four roads in England, on which travellers enjoyed unique protection. This idea has been regarded as a statement of the origin of the King's Highway from which wider definitions grew. In fact, the Four Highways did not exist as a category in Anglo-Saxon law, but were a twelfth-century fabrication that came to be quite antithetical to the genuine law of the highway. The ide…
The Museum and the Book
The publishing history of one extraordinary book is investigated here, the Metallotheca or mineralogical museum catalogue which the naturalist Michele Mercati compiled in late sixteenth-century Rome, and which finally saw the light of day over a century after his death, with its posthumous publication in the early eighteenth century. Examining the changes wrought during the intervening period as these are revealed in the form of the book itself, …
The Festivals of Israel and Judah and the Literary History of the Pentateuch
It has long been recognized that the biblical accounts of Israel's sacred feasts represent the conflation of several different festival calendars. The present article, a summary of a larger work in progress, offers a new reconstruction of the early festival calendars of Israel (the Northern Kingdom) and Judah respectively, and an explanation of how and why the two distinct festival traditions were drawn together. The paper focuses on the redactor…

Game Theory and Partnership in Child Protection Practice
The aim of this paper is to highlight one of the contradictions between the main English government guidance for child protection practice--Working Together to Safeguard Children (1999), compared with the official published guidance on assessment practice: the Framework for Assessing Children in Need and their Families (2000). The contradiction refers to radically different models of decision that lie deep at the heart of both sets of guidance. T…

Beringia as an Ice Age genetic museum
Thousands of Late Pleistocene remains are found in sites throughout Beringia. These specimens comprise an Ice Age genetic museum, and the DNA contained within them provide a means to observe evolutionary processes within populations over geologically significant time scales. Phylogenetic analyses can identify the taxonomic positions of extinct species and provide estimates of speciation dates. Geographic and temporal divisions apparent in the gen…
Rise and Fall of the Beringian Steppe Bison
The widespread extinctions of large mammals at the end of the Pleistocene epoch have often been attributed to the depredations of humans; here we present genetic evidence that questions this assumption. We used ancient DNA and Bayesian techniques to reconstruct a detailed genetic history of bison throughout the late Pleistocene and Holocene epochs. Our analyses depict a large diverse population living throughout Beringia until around 37,000 years…

Worldwide Phylogeography of Wild Boar Reveals Multiple Centers of Pig Domestication
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequences from 686 wild and domestic pig specimens place the origin of wild boar in island Southeast Asia (ISEA), where they dispersed across Eurasia. Previous morphological and genetic evidence suggested pig domestication took place in a limited number of locations (principally the Near East and Far East). In contrast, new genetic data reveal multiple centers of domestication across Eurasia and that European, rather tha…
