The total coefficient of inbreeding (F) ranges in the particular villages from F = 0.0049 to F = 0.0122. The non-random component of F (Fn) appears to be an insignificant factor in Moravský Jan, whereas in the two other villages Fn values are higher than the random (Fr) ones, suggesting that marital isonymy is a major factor of Fn. The observed RP values exceed the random RP (RPr) ones in all three populations, indicating that these populations experienced subdivisioning due to the influence of lineage-like behaviour in mate choice with concomitant decrease in genetic variability. The z score testing the null hypothesis of RP = RPr is statistically significant in all three populations. The results on endogamy and exogamy, differential migration by sex and mean marriage distance show: The average coefficient of endogamy ranges from 51.62 % to 61.12 % in particular villages; greater migration by males than females in all three populations; the mean marriage distance ranges between 7.89-19.99 km in particular populations.","PeriodicalId":46008,"journal":{"name":"Anthropologischer Anzeiger","volume":"67 1","pages":"289-301"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"1999-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64053818","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Biostratigraphic correlation with a more precise Bison FAD, shows the relevance of paleontology in prehistoric reconstruction. The LAD (last appearance date) of medium-sized Bison chaneyi, 26,820 ± 350 yr B.P., and the FAD o short-horned B antiquus 22,130 ± 350 yr B.P., indicate that species replacement was around 30,000 yr B.P. B. antiquus occurs at Tequixquiac, Upper Becerra, and Valsequillo, Fauna Zone II, av. date 23.000 yr B.P., Mexico. Unifacial edge-trimmed tools occur at the base of the Upper Becerra, Tequixquiac, in the level with B. chaneyi, and unifacial tools occur in the Faunal Zone II, Valsequillo, at the level with B. antiquus. Both sites are isochrons of fossil soil fB01 with minimum date of 23,980 ± 1000 yr B.P. at Malinche volcano in Puebla and traced westward over the Sierra Nevada into the Valley of Mexico. This supports the conclusion that the Central Mexico Paleoindian sites represent the earliest documented FAD.","PeriodicalId":46008,"journal":{"name":"Anthropologischer Anzeiger","volume":"58 1","pages":"13-24"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"1999-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64054114","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Further, the tribal populations of South India reveal higher frequencies of rare variants than the caste populations. However, the presence of rare variants that are phenotypically neutral may be plausibly due to their high selective value.","PeriodicalId":46008,"journal":{"name":"Anthropologischer Anzeiger","volume":"57 1","pages":"41-49"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"1999-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64054143","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using the 7 restriction enzymes for the analysis of site's polymorphism in 16106-16545 region of mtDNA, we studied the structure of the most frequent DNA haplotypes, and estimated the intrapopulational nucleotide diversity of the Neolithic population. Comparison of the Neolithic and modern indigeneous populations from Siberia, Mongolia and Ural showed, that the ancient Siberian population is one of the ancestors of the modern population of Siberia. From genetic distance, in the assumption of constant nucleotide substitution rate, we estimated the divergence time between the Neolithic and the modern Siberian population. This divergence time (5572 years ago) is conformed to the age of skeletal remains (5542-5652 years). With use of the 14 C dates of the skeletal remains, nucleotide substitution rate in mtDNA was estimated as 1 % sequence divergence for 8938-9115 years.","PeriodicalId":46008,"journal":{"name":"Anthropologischer Anzeiger","volume":"56 1","pages":"1-6"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"1998-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"64053565","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
