The precise genetic origins of the first Neolithic farming populations in Europe and Southwest Asia, as well processes timing their differentiation, remain largely unknown. Demogenomic modeling high-quality ancient genomes reveals that early farmers Anatolia emerged from a multiphase mixing Asian population with strongly bottlenecked western hunter-gatherer after last glacial maximum. Moreover, ancestors went through period extreme drift during westward range expansion, contributing highly...
Cattle dominate archaeozoological assemblages from the north-central Europe between sixth and fifth millennium BC are frequently considered as exclusively used for their meat. Dairy products may have played a greater role than previously believed. Selective pressure on lactase persistence mutation has been modelled to begun 6000 4000 years ago in central Europe. The discovery of milk lipids late ceramic sieves Poland reflect an isolated regional peculiarity cheese making or signify more...
Analyses of organic residues preserved in ceramic potsherds enable the identification foodstuffs processed archaeological vessels. Differences isotopic composition fatty acids allow differentiation non-ruminant and ruminant fats, as well adipose dairy fats. This paper investigates trends milk use areas where sheep goats are dominant faunal assemblage some sites from Linearbandkeramik culture. Sites include: Colle Santo Stefano, Abruzzo, Italy, Oldest to Young Zwenkau, Eythra Brodau, Saxony,...
Abstract Background The northern European Neolithic is characterized by two major demographic events: immigration of early farmers from Anatolia at 7500 years before present, and their admixture with local western hunter-gatherers forming late farmers, around 6200 present. influence this event on variation in the immune-relevant human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region understudied. Results We analyzed genome-wide data 125 individuals seven archeological farmer sites located present-day Germany....
Studying the dynamic of Neolithic settlement on a local scale and its connection to climate variability is often difficult due missing on-site reconstructions from natural archives. Here we bring together archaeological data regional reconstruction precipitation-sensitive trees. Both archives hold information about dynamics hydroclimate spanning time first farming communities, so called Linearbandkeramik (LBK) in Bavaria, Germany. Precipitation-sensitive tree-ring series subfossil oak are...
ABSTRACT The northern European Neolithic is characterized by two major demographic events: immigration of early farmers (EF) from Anatolia (5500 BCE) and their admixture (from ∼4200 with western hunter-gatherers (WHG) forming late (LF). influence this event on variation in the immune-relevant human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region understudied. Here, we conducted population immunogenetic analyses 83 individuals six EF LF sites located present-day Germany. We observed significant shifts HLA...
<title>Abstract</title> Stable isotope signatures of domesticates found on archaeology sites provide information about past human behaviour, such as the evolution and adaptation husbandry strategies. A dynamic phase in cattle is during 6th millennium BCE, where first herders central Europe spread rapidly through diverse forested ecological niches, little known pasturing Here we investigate foddering practices using a multi-regional dataset stable values (δ13C δ18O; compound-specific isotopic...
In general, the LBK is considered a very assertive cultural phenomenon characterized by rapid expansion and subsequent high population density in agriculturally favorable areas. On one hand, for first time larger long-term populated places were created, on other strong colonial tendency obvious. A closer look at settlement areas upper Danube Bavaria Baden-Württemberg, however, shows an astonishing picture: Both of rural colonization ups downs further are different from region to region....
Zusammenfassung Ein am Heuberg bei Ohlstadt gefundenes Flachbeil aus Kupfer, welches typologisch dem frühen Jungneolithikum respektive der Kupferzeit und somit Zeit um 4000 v. Chr. zuzuordnen ist, wird im Rahmen Studie materialkundlich untersucht. Eine RFA-Analyse ergab nahezu reines Kupfer mit geringen Mengen an Fe, P, Si, Ni Al. Die Elemente As, Sb, S Pb, die in derartigen Kupfergegenständen oft zu finden sind, waren nicht nachweisbar. metallographische Untersuchung zeigt ein sehr...
Abstract The precise genetic origins of the first Neolithic farming populations, as well processes and timing their differentiation, remain largely unknown. Based on demogenomic modeling high-quality ancient genomes, we show that early farmers Anatolia Europe emerged from a multiphase mixing Near Eastern population with strongly bottlenecked Western hunter-gatherer after Last Glacial Maximum. Moreover, branch leading to is characterized by 2,500-year period extreme drift during its westward...
Abstract During the sixth millennium bce , first farmers of Central Europe rapidly expanded across a varied mosaic forested environments. Such environments would have offered important sources mineral-rich animal feed and shelter, prompting question: to what extent did early exploit forests raise their herds? Here, resolve this, we assembled multi-regional datasets, comprising bulk compound-specific stable isotope values from zooarchaeological remains pottery, conducted cross-correlation...
Stephansposching, Lkr. Deggendorf, liegt im niederbayerischen Gauboden direkt an der Terrassenkante lossbedeckten Hochflachen zur breiten Donauniederung hin. Die linienbandkeramische Fundstelle befindet sich in direkter Nahe des heutigen Ortskerns. Zwischen 1984 und 1995 erfolgten ausgedehnten Notgrabungen, wobei rund 3,4 ha insgesamt mindestens 10 grosen Siedlungsflache freigelegt wurden. Beim Fundmaterial kommt die groste Bedeutung Keramik zu. Insgesamt konnten 12.600 Gefaseinheiten...
Auf Einladung des Landkreises Landshut fand die 23. Jahrestagung der Arbeitsgemeinschaft Mesolithikum vom 21.–23.3.2014 im Landratsamt statt. An Tagung nahmen mehr als 60 Wissenschaftler, Studierende und an Mittelsteinzeit interessierte Amateurarchaologen aus Deutschland, Osterreich, Tschechien, Italien, Schweiz Danemark teil. Insgesamt wurden 20 Vortrage gehalten. Neben Berichten den einzelnen Arbeitsgebieten Teilnehmer waren das bayerische ein Workshop zur Siedlungsplatzdynamik Schwerpunkte Tagung.

Abstract Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is often described as a model for modern civilization diseases in which environmental factors trigger manifestation genetically compromised individuals. Little known about the evolutionary history of variants associated with IBD Europeans. Here, we analysed 610 IBD-variants 2445 ancient datasets from human remains spanning last 12,000 years, including genotypes generated 172 newly collected individuals European Neolithic. We found statistically...
