Molecular Genetic Analysis of 400-Year-Old Human Remains Found in Two Yakut Burial Sites
International audience The excavation of five frozen graves at the Sytygane Syhe and Istekh-Myrane burial sites (dated at 400 years old) in central Yakutia revealed five human skeletons belonging to the Yakut population. To investigate the origin and evolution of the Yakut population as well as the...
