Ancient human genome-wide data from a 3000-year interval in the Caucasus corresponds with eco-geographic regions, Published online: 04 February 2019; doi:10.1038/s41467-018-08220-8

The Caucasus mountain range has impacted on the culture and genetics of the wider region. Here, the authors generate genome-wide SNP data for 45 Eneolithic and Bronze Age individuals across the Caucasus, and find distinct genetic clusters between mountain and steppe zones as well as occasional gene-flow.
