Min Europeiska Familj by Karin Bojs

De senaste 54 000 åren

A readable popular-science account that uses genetic testing of the author’s family and wider population-data to trace the peopling of Europe across tens of thousands of years, weaving DNA results with archaeology, linguistics and history to reveal successive waves of migration—Paleolithic hunter‑gatherers, Neolithic farmers from the Near East, Bronze Age steppe pastoralists and later medieval and Viking movements—and to show how contemporary Europeans carry complex, surprising mixtures of ancestries and regional connections.
