Despite its strategic importance at the furthermost edge of the Neolithic expansion in Europe, archaeogenetic data from Mesolithic and Neolithic human remains from Portugal are still very limited. Here we present ancient mtDNA evidence (mostly unpubl...

Mobility and kinship in the world’s first village societies (2023)
Journal Article
Pearson, J., Evans, J., Lamb, A., Baird, D., Hodder, I., Marciniak, A., …Fernández-Domínguez, E. (2023). Mobility and kinship in the world’s first village societies. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 120(4), Article e2209480119. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2209480119

Around 10,000 y ago in southwest Asia, the cessation of a mobile lifestyle and the emergence of the first village communities during the Neolithic marked a fundamental change in human history. The first communities were small (tens to hundreds of ind... Read More about Mobility and kinship in the world’s first village societies.
