Extended Data Fig. 7: Two reconstructed pedigrees of Punic individuals.
From: Punic people were genetically diverse with almost no Levantine ancestors
We reconstructed two pedigrees based on inferring biological relatives with pairwise kinship (using IBD segment sharing) and uniparental haplogroups: (a) A pedigree linking five individuals from Kerkouane, North Africa; (b) A pedigree linking three individuals from Tharros, Sardinia. In the Kerkouane pedigree in (a), individuals I24215 and I24194 are inferred to be 3rd-4th degree relatives of the two siblings I24494 and I24193, but the exact pedigree relationship cannot be resolved. Each panel depicts the projection of the related individuals onto the two major PCs used in Fig. 1. Each pedigree specifies the sample IDs for all individuals, the mitochondrial (maternal) haplogroup and the Y (paternal) haplogroup for males. Both pedigrees contain individuals dating to 800–400 calBCE and link several individuals via the maternal lineage: We infer four identical maternal haplogroups in Kerkouane and a maternal grandfather in Tharros–two observations that are inconsistent with strict patrilocality.
