A new publication by our group on the interactions between hunter-gatherers and neolithic farmers along the continental route: science.org/doi/epdf/10.11… Congratulations to Alex Tsoupas and the team! @Biologie_UNIGE @genevunige @ScienceAdvances

Une étude de l’UNIGE révèle que le passage des chasseurs-cueilleurs aux premiers agriculteurs au Néolithique ne s’est pas fait par la violence, mais par des mélanges progressifs.  @mathiascurrat @Biologie_UNIGE ow.ly/ovLz50WI5vn

A UNIGE study reveals that the transition from hunter-gatherers to early farmers in the Neolithic period did not occur through violence, but through gradual mixing. @mathiascurrat @Biologie_UNIGE ow.ly/SVy750WI5wU
