A vast stretch of islands across the South Pacific holds one of the oldest human stories on Earth. For tens of thousands of ...
New fossil discoveries are reshaping scientists’ understanding of a pivotal chapter in human evolution, revealing that several human ancestor lineages lived side by side nearly 3 million years ago.
A Harvard-led team analyzed nearly 16,000 ancient and over 6,400 modern genomes to identify 479 gene variants strongly selected for or against in West Eurasia over the past 10,000 years. The findings ...

New discoveries keep rewriting the human evolutionary timeline
This overview argues that the story of human evolution is being reshaped by a series of recent discoveries rather than by one ...
Over the past 10,000 years, natural selection has contributed to the evolution of nearly 500 genes in the DNA of West Eurasians, affecting their looks and susceptibility to different illnesses, a new ...
This has been quite the wild year in human evolution stories. Our relatives, living and extinct, got a lot of attention—from new developments in ape cognition to an expanded perspective of a ...
Applying new analytic methods to nearly 16,000 ancient genomes reveals natural selection has acted on hundreds, not dozens, of genes in West Eurasia over the last 10,000 years. More than half of the ...
A recent study proposes a new paradigm for understanding the role of carrion in the subsistence of human populations throughout their evolution. Ana Mateos and Jesús Rodríguez, scientists at the ...
Hundreds of hominin fossils reveal that human body size remained stable for ages before a sharp increase in early members of ...
