Ancient DNA reveals Ice Age Europeans maintained continent-wide genetic ties

Team identifies evidence of long-term regional genetic persistence

While populations exchanged genes across distances, other ancient Europeans maintained continuous genetic presence in particular regions for thousands of years. Evidence from Chufín Cave in northern Spain and El Mirón Cave in Cantabria suggests western European ancestry persisted in southwestern Europe through the Last Glacial Maximum. Researchers recovered human DNA directly from cave sediments at El Mirón, obtaining about 14,000 genetic markers from a 22,000-year-old layer despite finding no identifiable human remains.

“Our results show that eastern and western European populations were not as genetically isolated as previously assumed. Gene flow across such large distances adds a new dimension to our understanding of how Gravettian populations were connected.”
