Update on ancient DNA: paleontoLogicMind coscious evolutionary consciousness become geopolitical as danisovian - Neandertal’s and Sapiens’ missing link - are occupying the Eurasian continental center as a nodding link with multi regional... more
This review revealed a new mechanism for gene regulation through “gene silencing” at the transcriptional level (TGS) or at the post -transcriptional level (PTGS), which play a key role in many essential cellular processes. Today dsRNA... more
With the advent of ancient DNA, as well as other methods such as isotope analysis, destructive sampling of archaeofaunal remains has increased much faster than the effort to collect and curate them. While there has been considerable... more
Ancient DNA (aDNA) approaches have been successfully used to infer the long-term impacts of climate change, domestication, and human exploitation in a range of terrestrial species. Nonetheless, studies investigating such impacts using... more
For societies with writing systems, hereditary leadership is documented as one of the hallmarks of early political complexity and governance. In contrast, it is unknown whether hereditary succession played a role in the early formation of... more
"The Neanderthal extinction approximately 30 ka BP has been a contentious issue in archaeology, where the role of the deteriorating climate and/or the arrival of modern humans (from 40 ka BP) could have played a part. By reconstructing... more
