Horse domestication revolutionized warfare and accelerated travel, trade, the geographic expansion of languages. Here, we present largest DNA time series for a non-human organism to date, including genome-scale data from 149 ancient animals 129 genomes (≥1-fold coverage), 87 which are new. This extensive dataset allows us assess modern legacy past equestrian civilizations. We find that two extinct horse lineages existed during early domestication, one at far western (Iberia) other eastern...
Being at the western fringe of Europe, Iberia had a peculiar prehistory and complex pattern Neolithization. A few studies, all based on modern populations, reported presence DNA likely African origin in this region, generally concluding it was result recent gene flow, probably during Islamic period. Here, we provide evidence much older flow from Africa to by sequencing whole genomes four human remains northern Portugal southern Spain dated around 4000 years BP (from Middle Neolithic Bronze...
Abstract The Romans were among the first to extensively exploit fish resources, establishing large-scale salting and preservation plants. Small pelagic fermented produce sauces like garum. Here, we recover DNA from specimens collected at Adro Vello (O Grove), Galicia, dating 3rd century AD. Whole genome resequencing, confirmed these as European sardines ( Sardina pilchardus ) assigns all samples a population ranging North Morocco Bay of Biscay. low admixture levels in ancient suggest lower...
Taxonomic identification of whale bones found during archaeological excavations is problematic due to their typically fragmented state. This difficulty limits understanding both the past spatio-temporal distributions populations and possible early whaling activities. To overcome this challenge, we performed zooarchaeology by mass spectrometry on an unprecedented 719 palaeontological specimens probable bone from Atlantic European contexts, predominantly dating
There is the tendency to assume that endangered species have been both genetically and demographically healthier in past, so any genetic erosion observed today was caused by their recent decline. The Iberian lynx (Lynx pardinus) suffered a dramatic continuous decline during 20th century, now shows extremely low genome- species-wide diversity among other signs of genomic erosion. We analyze ancient (N = 10), historical 245), contemporary 172) samples with microsatellite mitogenome data...
The coastal lagoon‐beach complex at the Cíes Islands located opening of Ría de Vigo ( NW Iberia) is an important ecosystem currently threatened by anthropogenic impacts and climate variations. We used multiproxy marine sediment analyses to reconstruct millennial environmental dynamics this insular system and, in particular, recent history its lagoon. Geophysical surveys were obtain bathymetry identify major sedimentary units closest submarine basin as well their sources. Core samples taken...
With the conquest of Iberian Peninsula by Roman Empire, different societies in north, north-west, north-east, east, and centre were grouped into same province, Hispania Tarraconensis. This article sets out to assess whether this new, Roman, territorial organization affected previous animal husbandry hunting practices. The taxonomic osteometric study faunal remains from ninety-four sites dated between fifth century bc third ad provides an overview before after conquest. It shows that...
This paper reviews the Mesolithic in northwest Atlantic and inland area of Iberian Peninsula it is considered overall context rest Peninsula. The Cantabrian Mountains are northern boundary study area, which excludes adjoining coastal area. In addition to geographical, geological environmental settings, chronology human remains also reviewed, paying special attention specific characteristics each main sites. primary faunal, plant remain, bone stone industry - including raw material supply,...
Abstract Processed fish is known to have been systematically traded in Europe since the Early Middle Ages meet increasing demand of incipient markets and religious precepts, yet specific details regarding supply different Southern often missing. Here, we address this gap through an integrated approach involving bone metrics stable isotopic analysis archaeological European hake ( Merluccius merluccius , Merluccidae) from Iberian Peninsula. The results offer new insights historical fisheries...
El presente artículo propone una aproximación al registro material del yacimiento de Castelo da Veiga (Culleredo, A Coruña), fortificación pequeñas dimensiones datada en el siglo X y ubicada un emplazamiento conspicuo con gran control visual a larga distancia. valor su arqueológico radica dos aspectos principales: primer lugar, la (relativa) cantidad materiales documentados, contraposición habitual ausencia evidencias resto los castillos roqueros excavados Noroeste. Este hecho permite, por...

The physiographical features of the Galician sea, in particular its temperature, marine currents and plankton richness, have turned waters into one most biologically diversified regions planet. 1500 km shorelines from this Northwest Iberian region are dotted with rías (Galician fjords) where settlements devoted to fishing trade existed since prehistoric times. These activities left abundant testimonies terms archaeological deposits. In recent decades, urban/industrial development, as well a...
Con motivo de presentar dos tumbas individuales en fosa inéditas, se aborda un estudio conjunto sobre las prácticas funerarias del Calcolítico Precampaniforme la submeseta norte española. Pese a su carácter mayoritario el registro arqueológico, discute representatividad como norma este tipo sepulturas; rastrean comportamientos propios rituales enterramiento tiempos, preludio los documentados mismo espacio Edad Bronce; aporta información ADN mitocondrial y sexo molecular uno difuntos, pone...
