H was also found in some ancient samples of Europe and is still found today at a low frequency in certain southeastern Europeans and Arabs of the Levant. Haplogroup H is frequently found among populations of India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Bangladesh, Pakistan and the Maldives. All three branches of Haplogroup H (Y-DNA) are found in South Asia.
The analysed samples of both studies have little to none of the "Steppe ancestry" component associated with later Indo-European migrations into India. The authors found that the respective amounts of those ancestries varied significantly between individuals, and concluded that more samples are needed to get the full picture of Indian population ...
It has been found that 50% of the Neanderthal genome is present among people in India, [18] and 41% has been found in Icelanders. [19] Previously it was found that about 20% of the Neanderthal genome was found in modern Eurasians, [20] but the figure was also estimated at a third. [21]
The book discusses four prehistoric migrations in India. [18] [19] It posits that the Harappans were a mixture of Zagros agriculturists (from the modern-day Iran area) and First Indians, [20] a wave of migrants who came from Africa into Arabia and then reached India around 65,000 years ago.

Archaeogenetics is the study of ancient DNA using various molecular genetic methods and DNA resources. This form of genetic analysis can be applied to human, animal, and plant specimens. Ancient DNA can be extracted from various fossilized specimens including bones, eggshells, and artificially preserved tissues in human and animal specimens.
During DNA sequencing, a low proportion of the Denisova 2, Denisova 4 and Denisova 8 genomes were found to have survived, but a high proportion of the Denisova 3 and Denisova 25 genomes were intact. [ 11 ] [ 13 ] [ 12 ] The Denisova 3 sample was cut into two, and the initial DNA sequencing of one fragment was later independently confirmed by ...
A ancient giant snake in India might have been longer than a school bus and weighed a ton, researchers reported Thursday. The newly discovered behemoth lived 47 million years ago in western India ...
