Genomic history of early dogs in Europe
13 hours ago Nathan Newby, a hero hospital patient who stopped a “lone-wolf terrorist” from detonating a bomb at Leeds hospital’s maternity wing, says the would-be attacker “asked for a cuddle.” Mohammad Farooq was jailed last year for life with a minimum term of 37 years after taking a home-made pressure cooker bomb into St James’s Hospital, intending to “kill as many nurses as possible”. Mr Newby will receive the George Medal, the second-highest civilian gallantry award, for his bravery.
Dogs were widely distributed across western Eurasia during the Palaeolithic

Abstract Archaeological evidence suggests that dogs diverged from wolves during the Palaeolithic, more than 15,000 years ago1,2,3,4,5,6,7. The earliest unequivocal genetic evidence, however, is associated with dog remains from Mesolithic archaeological contexts approximately 10,900 years ago8,9.

Genomic history of early dogs in Europe
|
Abstract The earliest morphologically identifiable dogs are from Europe and date to at least 14,000 years ago1,2,3,4,5, although early remains are also found in other regions. The origin of early dogs in Europe, and their relationships to other dogs, has remained elusive in the absence of genome-wide data.

Ancient DNA suggests modern wolves trace their origin to a Late Pleistocene expansion from Beringia
Abstract Grey wolves (Canis lupus) are one of the few large terrestrial carnivores that have maintained a wide geographical distribution across the Northern Hemisphere throughout the Pleistocene and Holocene. Recent genetic studies have suggested that, despite this continuous presence, major demographic changes occurred in wolf populations between the Late Pleistocene and early Holocene, and that extant wolves trace their ancestry to a single Late Pleistocene population.
