Hello, Antarctica. Unlike previously anticipated, from 460 km above, it is only pure white, no human activity is visible.

New DNA paper from Australia! - Supports Pama-Nyungan spread via diffusion - Yolngu speakers (2) most closely related to neighboring Non-PN speakers (3 & 4) BUT - Yolngu ancestors likely migrated west 11-8 kya - Non-PN have mysterious Papuan admixture not seen in Yolngu

Genetic evidence shows that Papuans were sailing around Wallacea 15 kya (red). So my theory is that they traded or even settled along the coast of what is now Australia. But Pama-Nyungan ancestors (blue) may have lived too far inland to make contact x.com/ClstlObserver/…

He lost me at using Ust Ishm as a proxy rather than TKH. The recent study on TKH shows Zlaty Kuhn, which is even more "Basal" that Ust, is a terrible proxy for the derived ancestry in SSA. That would stand out like Austronesian in Malagasy! Also Hofmeyr? Lol.

Mapping and analyzing nearly 5,000 full mitogenomes across Africa

Papua New Guinea developed agriculture around 10,000 years ago, close to the time it developed in Eurasia. It was the first region to cultivate bananas and sugarcane, along with taro, yam, and several other crops, though it lacked cereal grains. Interestingly, Papua’s rugged

glass beads manufactured at Ife (Nigeria) and silver coins from Tadmekka (Mali) were imported into medieval Kanem which exported dyed cloth that was weaved locally africanhistoryextra.com/p/a-forgotten-…

Hadza is a language spoken along the shores of Lake Eyasi in Tanzania. It is one of only three languages in East Africa with click consonants.

Very proud of my talk about genomic diversity in #Africa at the #HumanEvo25. Kudos to the Scientific Committee for their impressive work this week at the Wellcome Sanger Institute, UK. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Ultimately it was the Dutch and the Germans who ended up wiping out most hunter-gatherer Bushmen groups and the British who displaced many of the rest, not the Bantu
