By the end of the LGM, around 19 to 11 ka, the familiar varieties of Eurasian phenotypes had emerged. However, the lineage of Mesolithic hunter-gatherers of Western Europe (WHG) does not survive as a majority contribution in any modern population. They were most likely blue eyed, and retained the dark skin pigmentation of pre-LGM EEMH. [37]
Human Y-chromosome DNA haplogroups in Morocco and the world. [1] Moroccan genetics encompasses the genetic history of the people of Morocco, and the genetic influence of this ancestry on world populations. It has been heavily influenced by geography. In prehistoric times, the Sahara desert to the south and the Mediterranean Sea to the north ...
The genetic history of the Middle East is the subject of research within the fields of human population genomics, archaeogenetics and Middle Eastern studies.Researchers use Y-DNA, mtDNA, and other autosomal DNA tests to identify the genetic history of ancient and modern populations of Egypt, Persia, Mesopotamia, Anatolia, Arabia, the Levant, and other areas.
Other Indo-Aryan peoples. The Kho (/ koʊ /, [3] Khowar: کھو) or Chitrali people, [4] are an Indo-Aryan ethnolinguistic group [5] native to the Chitral District in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan and the Gupis-Yasin and Ghizer districts of Gilgit-Baltistan. [6] They speak an Indo-Aryan language called Khowar.
The genetic history of North Africa encompasses the genetic history of the people of North Africa.The most important source of gene flow to North Africa from the Neolithic Era onwards was from Western Asia, while the Sahara desert to the south and the Mediterranean Sea to the North were also important barriers to gene flow from sub-Saharan Africa and parts of Europe in prehistory.
While many studies conducted on Horn of Africa populations estimate a West-Eurasian admixture event around 3,000 years ago, [57] [40] [39] [58] Hodgson et al. (2014) found a distinct West-Eurasian ancestral component among studied Afroasiatic-speaking groups in the Horn of Africa (and to a lesser extent in North Africa and West Asia), most ...
A genetic study published in the "European Journal of Human Genetics" in Nature (2019) showed that Middle Easterners (Arabs) are closely related to Europeans and Northern Africans as well as to Southwest Asians. [38] The "Arab macropopulation" is generally closely related to other "West-Eurasian" populations, such as Europeans or Iranian peoples.
E1b1b-M215 is the second most prevailing haplogroup amongst Serbs, accounting for nearly one-fifth of Serbians. It is represented by four sub-clusters E-V13 (17.49%), E1b1b-V22 (0.33%), and E1b1b-M123 (0.33%). [2] In Southeast Europe, its frequency peaks at the southeastern edge of the region and its variance peaks in the region's southwest.
