'DNA' Of Ancient Women Closely Related To Far East Asians

A study indicates that the DNA of 7700-year old women is similar to the people who live in Asia today. The study indicates that the population across northern East Asia has little changes in the past years.

According to a report, the DNA was taken from two women who live where Russia borders China and North Korea 8000 years ago. As the DNA of these women were examined and being compared to modern East Asians, the results show that there is a significant resemblance and less change for 8000 years.

 The study indicates that the women from 7700 years ago had brown eyes and they also had thick straight hair. Important information found on the research is that agriculture may have not been introduced before. Instead it developed overtime on its own in this part of the globe.

A report indicates that there has been continuity with the population over the years. It has also been concluded that the people who live in the mountainous areas of Russia are closely related to the ones living in the border of Asia today.

It is indicated in the report that the DNA from the remains of the women found in the cave has been closely similar to the Ulchi. They are the indigenous people that today live near the cave of Amur Basin. Here, these women had fished and hunted for their own existence.

Meanwhile, the results from the study have been published in the journal Science Advances. The lead author of the study is Veronika Siska, a zoology researcher at the University of Cambridge. The study also indicates that there has been a lot of migration which influenced the changes in the population over the years.

In the meantime, the Asian ancestors had stayed put since there is not much change in the genes of the type of race.
