The genetic history of Portugal over the past 5,000 years.
Roca-Rada, Xavier; Davidson, Roberta; Williams, Matthew P.; Villalba-Mouco, Vanessa; Carvalho, António Manuel Faustino de; Ravishankar, ShyamsundarRecent ancient DNA studies uncovering large-scale demographic events in Iberia have presented very limited data for Portugal, a country located at the westernmost edge of continental Eurasia. Here, we present the most comprehensive collection of Portuguese ancient genome-wide data, from 67 individuals spanning 5000 years of human history, from the Neolithic to the nineteenth century. We identify early admixture...
