Fig. 1: Archaeological sites and dates of sampled and comparative individuals.
From: Homo sapiens-specific evolution unveiled by ancient southern African genomes
a, All ancient African individuals from >1 ka with complete sequenced genomes (>7× coverage). The seven complete ancient genomes from southern Africa (Matjes River 1, 3 and 11, Great Brak River Cave, Cape St Francis, Springbokvlakte and Ballito Bay A) are studied in detail. The symbol shape indicates archaeological context for southern Africa (see the legend in b). The Zambezi and Limpopo rivers are highlighted in blue. b, Ancient African individuals with genomic data south of the 14th latitude. Archaeological context is given by the shape of the symbol. LSA, Later Stone Age. c, The distribution of sampled and comparative individuals across dates. Maps were created with Natural Earth in R, using vector maps from the package rnaturalearthdata.
