Ancient DNA Shows Genetic Link Between Egypt And Mesopotamia
Ancient DNA has revealed a genetic link between the cultures of ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia, according to research published Wednesday in the journal Nature. This finding is significant as it gives evidence of an insight hinted in earlier works.

Ancient Europeans Retained Dark Skin, Hair and Eyes Until the Iron Age, Claims New Study
A genetic study analysing 348 ancient DNA samples reveals that most prehistoric Europeans had dark skin, hair, and eyes well into the Iron Age. Although genes for lighter pigmentation appeared around 14,000 years ago, they remained rare until about 3,000 years ago. Lighter skin may have been advantageous for vitamin D production, while lighter eyes...

Ancient DNA Sheds Light on the Diverse Genetic Origins of the European Huns
A new study has analysed ancient DNA from 370 individuals buried between the fourth and sixth centuries, revealing that the European Huns were genetically diverse. While some showed direct ties to Xiongnu elites from Mongolia, most carried mixed Northeast Asian ancestry. Researchers found no evidence of a single large-scale migration but instead ob...

AI-Powered Evo-2 Model Generates DNA, Advances Genome Research
Evo-2, an AI model developed by the Arc Institute, Stanford University, and NVIDIA, has been trained on 128,000 genomes, enabling it to generate DNA sequences and predict mutations. It analyses both coding and non-coding DNA, helping researchers understand gene functions and diseases. The model has already demonstrated capabilities in designing CRI...

Ancient Egyptians Consumed Psychedelic Cocktails Mixed With Bodily Fluids, Alcohol
The research combined chemical and DNA analyses uncovered the first physical evidence of plants with psychotropic and medicinal properties in an Egyptian mug.

Pompeii DNA Study Reveals Surprising Ancestry and Uncovers New Insights on Family and Gender Assumptions
Recent DNA findings from Pompeii reveal complex ancestry and social diversity, challenging earlier assumptions about family structures and cultural roles in the ancient city. Analysing skeletal remains has shown that some groups presumed to be family members were not biologically related, while traditional gender roles were also re-evaluated. This ...

3D Maps Find Loops in Human Genome
Researchers used a technology called "in situ Hi-C" to collect billions of snippets of DNA that were later analysed for signs of loops.

Bigfoot Hair Samples Mostly From Bears, Wolves
DNA testing is taking a bite out of the Bigfoot legend. After scientists analysed more than 30 hair samples reportedly left behind by Bigfoot and similar mythical beasts like the Himalayan Yeti, they found all of them came from more mundane creatures like bears, wolves, cows and raccoons.
