‘Viking’ was a job description, not a matter of heredity, massive ancient DNA study shows
It was a Viking saga written in genes. In 2008, construction work on an isolated Estonian beach near the town of Salme uncovered the skeletons of more than 40 powerfully built men.

DNA from the bones has now added a poignant detail: Four of the men, buried shoulder to shoulder holding their swords, were brothers.

Azeriak 42.000 urtez profitatu dira gizakiek sortutako soberakinez
Haiek baino handiagoak diren harrapakariek uzten dituzten arrastoez elikatu ohi dira azeriak, baina, gaur egun, gizakiak sortutako janari-soberakinek gero eta pisu handiagoa dute animalia hauen dietan. Komentsalismoan oinarritutako harreman hau, ordea, ez da oraingoa. Are gehiago, ikertzaile talde batek proposatutakoaren arabera, lotura hau Paleolitoan hasi zen. PLOS ONE aldizkarian argitaratutako ikerketa batean argudiatu dutenez, azeriek gizakiarekiko mantentzen duten komentsalismoak gutxienez 42.000 urte ditu.

Rulers of Ancient Egypt’s Enigmatic Hyksos Dynasty Were Immigrants, Not Invaders
