Abstract
Summary of the research findings
The origins and timing of the Neolithic transition in North Africa remain controversial. Archaeological evidence supports both indigenous development and migration hypotheses. Here we analyze genome-wide data from seven North African individuals dating from the Late Pleistocene to the Middle Neolithic (13,000-6,000 BP) and compare them with published ancient and modern data.
