Upper Paleolithic People of Sunghir

Sunghir is a prominent Upper Paleolithic archaeological site near the city of Vladimir, Russia.

The archaeology of the Sunghir site provides invaluable insights into Upper Paleolithic life, particularly regarding social structures, burial customs, and cultural practices among early humans. the remains at Sunghir date back to approximately 34,000 years ago.

The analysis revealed that all individuals were genetically male. None of the individuals were closely related (3rd degree or lower), indicating a diverse genetic background within the community.

The Sunghir individuals belonged to Y haplogroup C1a2 and displayed mitochondrial haplogroups U8c and U2. They are classified as West Eurasian. They show strong genetic connections to other Upper Paleolithic populations, particularly those associated with the Gravettian culture, Kostenki individuals & Muierri woman.

qpf4ratio analysis indicate that Sunghir individuals possess about 1.8% Neanderthal ancestry.

Genetic breakdown of Ancient North Siberians (ANS).

~62.4% Kostenki14 (Early West Eurasians) ~37.6% Tianyuan (Basal East Asian)

The Yana RHS human remains represent the earliest direct evidence of human presence in northeastern Siberia, a population that refers to as Ancient North Siberians.

The two Yana RHS individuals were unrelated males who carry mitochondrial haplogroup U (which is predominant among ancient West Eurasian hunter-gatherers) and Y chromosome haplogroup P1, which is ancestral to haplogroups Q and R.

Using qpf4ratio, about 2% Neanderthal ancestry is estimated in the Yana RHS genomes.

the Yana RHS individuals are genetically closer to West Eurasians (Sunghir & Kostenki14).

Estimating Neanderthal Admixture in Stone Age Populations Keep in mind that I haven't done this before, so I may have gotten some things wrong. Overall, the results seem consistent with studies I've read on a few of these samples. Here's my takeaway; 1. Some IUP samples have genuine extra Neanderthal admixture aside what they'd have from Crown Eurasian. Particularly, Oase 1 has been estimated in studies to have 6-9% Neanderthal admixture from a recent ancestor. 2. Paleolithic and Mesolithic Europeans without supposed "Basal Eurasian" admixture do have slightly more than Middle Eastern stone age populations that supposedly do. However, it doesn't seem like anything that significant. Sometimes the standard errors could have the values overlap when comparing two from either group. It's still possible that Proto-Aurignacians could've encountered some remnant Neanderthals and admixed with them on their way to Europe. Overall, I still don't see why any of this needs to be explained by Basal Eurasian.
