Ancient DNA traces the history of hepatitis B Hepatitis virus (HBV) infections represent a worldwide human health concern. To study this pathogen, Kocher et al . identified 137 remains with detectable levels dating between 400 and 10,000 years ago. Sequencing analyses these ancient viruses suggested common ancestor 12,000 20,000 There is no evidence indicating that HBV was present in earliest humans as they spread out Africa; however, likely populations before farming. Furthermore, Americas...

Abstract The article provides a bioarchaeological perspective on the dietary practices of Late Bronze Age Southern Ural communities, which once inhabited steppe and forest‐steppe zones modern Bashkiria (Russia), via studying pathological dental conditions aspects tooth use in skeletal remains from four kurgan cemeteries. As children adolescents constitute majority remains, focus is non‐adult dentition. cemeteries were used by Srubnaya Srubnaya‐Alakul communities that are believed to have...
Introduction. In this paper, we compared patterns of longitudinal long bone growths the Late Bronze Age population from Southern Urals, representing pastoral communities, predominantly cattle breeders, and relatively synchronous agricultural Central Asia using standardized z-scores.

The present study is based on materials obtained during archaeological excavations at the Akberdino-3 site in 2009. located right bank of Belaya River forest-steppe zone Southern Pre-Urals (modern Iglinsky District Republic Bashkortostan, 15 km southeast from Ufa-city). It shown that a single thin cultural layer this small settlement contains Imendyashevo, Turbasly ceramics, and ceramics with mixture both these traditions, can be dated to 4th century AD (most likely middle end period), but...

The article aims to assess the method of individual visual typological definitions in biological anthropology and compare it with results multivariate statistical analysis based on cranial materials coming mainly from Yuezhi / Kushan period Central Asia. database contains information 185 crania. We have established that sex has a highly significant effect variation facial craniometric traits, while artificial deformation is less prominent but still statistically significant. PCA shown...
Abstract The article describes tumour‐like lesions in a Bronze Age skeleton from Southern Turkmenistan. combination of pathological manifestations observed the does not permit making exact conclusions. Based on skeletal lesions, malignant bone tumour (chondrosarcoma or parosteal osteosarcoma) seems to be most feasible diagnosis. If this diagnosis is correct, represents one earliest cases primary tumours known date.

Discussion.Cranial non-metric data demonstrate the proximity of Gonur materials to Yamnaya and Catacomb cultures Dnieper region.This fact is interpreted not from standpoint genetic mixing representatives "steppe" populations with BMAC ones, but as evidence presence a common ancient "Proto-Indo-European" stratum.Moreover, there are no analogies (at least until middle 2nd mill.BC) based on craniometric data, between agricultural groups populations.
