Aridoamerica and Mesoamerica are two distinct cultural areas in northern central Mexico, respectively, that hosted numerous pre-Hispanic civilizations between 2500 BCE 1521 CE. The division these regions shifted southward because of severe droughts ~1100 years ago, which allegedly drove a population replacement Mexico by Aridoamerican peoples. In this study, we present shotgun genome-wide data from 12 individuals 27 mitochondrial genomes eight archaeological sites across including at the...
The indigenous Mazahua and Otomi have inhabited the same localities in Estado de México since pre-Columbian times. Their languages, Otomi, belong to Oto-Manguean linguistic family, although they share cultural traditions a regional history that suggest close genetic relationships common ancestry, historical records concerning their origin are confusing. To understand biological between we analyzed mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variation. We identified mtDNA haplogroups by restriction fragment...
We identified mitochondrial DNA haplogroups A, B, C, and D in 75 present-day Maya individuals, 24 individuals of the colonial period, 1 pre-Columbian individual from Quintana Roo, Mexico. examined these data together with those 21 populations reported literature, comprising 647 71 ancient individuals. A demographic study based on analysis fertility endogamy was carried out two modern to identify cultural factors that influence haplogroup genetic diversity. Most show a distribution pattern...
Mesoamerica is a cultural and geographic region with northern boundary adjacent to the American Greater Southwest southeastern that includes Maya area, which Caribbean. These regions are of interest analyze genetic structure, ancestry, gene flow between ancient populations. We identified mitochondrial DNA haplogroups haplotypes in 19 colonial 10 pre-Columbian from Xcaret 6 Paquimé individuals. analyzed our data together 603 individuals 95 502 The results show clear differences among...
