David Reich – Bronze Age shock, the Neanderthal puzzle, & the sudden spread of farming
Ancient-DNA analysis finds at least 479 genome positions under selection at 99% confidence and 7,200 at 50%, showing selection was widespread but obscured by migration, drift, and population structure.Signals intensify in immunity, metabolism, depigmentation, and a schooling predictor during the Bronze Age, while the trait’s meaning and Reich’s Neanderthal alternative remain important unresolved questions.
