At Scotland’s ancient Cladh Hallan, homes were full of human bones.
These Bronze Age farmers pieced together mummies from multiple skeletons. Then lived with them.

With the amazing new research from @trevorcousins_ and @RegevSchweiger pointing in the direction of complex speciation between Chimps and Humans, there has been quite a bit of interest in this topic online
I recommend those interested read Patterson 2006

@RegevSchweiger @richard_durbin The key argument we are making is that we can reliably estimate great ape effective population size history (taken as the inverse of the coalescence rate) as anciently as ~10 million years ago, using just PRESENT DAY diploid sequences. This figure shows inference from PSMC...2/n

Wolves have made a spectacular comeback in Europe. But attacks on livestock and humans have caused a heated debate about the limits of coexistence.

Huge news from the @ERC_Shadows project!!! By sequencing bones and sediments, we are improving the genetic history of the pre-LGM and LGM populations of SW Europe. Detecting undocumented genetic connections!😍🧬🦴⛰️! An amazing project and team! 🥰science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
