Founder effects in modern populations The genomes of ancient humans can reveal patterns early human migration (see the Perspective by Achilli et al. ). Iceland has a genetically distinct population, despite relatively recent settlement (∼1100 years ago). Ebenesersdóttir examined Icelandic people, dating to near colonization Iceland, and compared them with modernday populations. DNA revealed that founders had Gaelic Norse origins. Genetic drift since initial left Icelanders allele frequencies...

In northern Iroquoia, late pre-contact and early contact decoration commonly occur on collars-thick bands clay that encircle pot extend several centimeters down lip. These decorations constitute signals conveyed information about pot's user(s). southern Ontario period A.D. 1350 to 1650 witnessed substantial changes socio-political settlement...

Bioarchaeological research must balance scholarly commitment to the generation of new knowledge, descendants' interests in their collective past, and now common practice rapid re-interment excavated human remains. This paper documents first results a negotiated protocol built on retention one tooth per archaeologically derived skeleton, teeth that can then be used for destructive testing associated with ancient DNA stable isotope investigations. Seven archaeological sites dating from 13th...
