Links: Hawks on Hominids, Personal DNA is a scam, genetics and voodoo linguistics
A few good links have come my way in the last few days, so here they are:
- John Hawks has more information on new Middle Pleistocene hominid from Turkey, that I mentioned a few days ago, and also has a fun piece describing his recent paper about genetic introgression in humans.
- The folks over at Anthropology.net tear apart an article by Meredith Small calling personal DNA testing a scam ‘cos “if you want to know who you are, look in a mirror“
- Greater Blogazonia reviews the paper on genetic variation in Native American populations that we encountered two weeks ago in “Genetics meets voodoo linguistics“.
