Geneticists have found out the family ties of people from the American early colonial necropolis
American paleogenetics have sequenced the nuclear DNA of 11 people who were buried on the territory of the modern state of Delaware in one necropolis (consisting of two groups of graves) between 1674 and 1714. They confirmed the preliminary conclusions that in one group of graves there were the remains of three people with African origin, while in the other – with European ones. The researchers found that several people were closely related. So, among the Africans there were an adult dad and his little son, and among the Europeans there were an adult mother and daughter, as well as the son of the latter, who died in infancy. The results of the study were published in the journal Current Biology .
In 2006, American archaeologists began to carry out security and rescue excavations of one of the earliest colonial settlements in Delaware. This monument represented the land where Captain John Avery, a shipping man, and his family settled in 1674. It is known that after the death of John, his wife remarried in 1682, and his daughters divided the land among themselves. One of them lived here until 1715.
In 2014, archaeologists discovered a necropolis at this site, consisting of two parts: the northern group of three graves and the southern group, which includes eight graves. An examination of the bones showed that they contained the remains of 11 people: two women, seven men and two children, one of whom died at the age of four to six months, and the second at about five years of age. After studying their remains and mitochondrial DNA, scientists came to a preliminary conclusion that people from Africa were buried in the northern group of graves, and people from Europe were buried in the southern group.
A group of American scientists led by Raquel Fleskes of the University of Connecticut continued to study human remains found at the Rest Avery archaeological site. This time, paleogeneticists with low coverage (between 0.17 and 0.643 times) managed to read the nuclear genomes of all 11 people.
Principal component analysis confirmed past findings that three of the people in the northern grave group were from Africa, while eight of the people in the southern grave group were from Europe, with British and French populations closest to each other. Judging by the graph, the origin of African people was different. So, individual AR09grouped with the population of West Africa, the individual AR10 – with populations from the western regions of Central Africa. The origin of the third person (AR11) proved difficult to establish by this method, since he did not group with any particular population (apparently, modern data does not reflect the entire African diversity) and rather occupied an intermediate position between the populations of West and East Africa.
The researchers also confirmed these results when analyzing impurities using the ADMIXTURE program. Judging by the simulation, the AR10 individual is genetically close to the modern inhabitants of Cameroon and Gabon. For the other two, more accurate information about their biological relationship with modern Africans could not be established. AR09all also matched West African populations, and AR11 may have been of mixed origin (although it is still likely that its population is not represented in the database).
Geneticists also determined the gender of all 11 people buried at Rest Avery. It turned out that among them were two women (both of European origin) and nine men. Thus, they confirmed the anthropological assessment of sex, made on the bones of adults. In addition, scientists have determined for the first time that one infant of European descent (AR02) who died at the age of four to six months and an African child who lived about 4.5–5.5 years were boys.
Analysis of mitochondrial genomes showed that people with European origin belonged to haplogroups H, J, U, T and W, which are widespread in Western Europe. At the same time, two adult women (AR06 and AR07), as well as a baby (AR02) belonged to the same h2af1a haplogroup. This indicates that with a high probability they were relatives on the maternal side. In the three remaining people, the researchers identified clearly African haplogroups L0a1a2, L3d2 and L3e3b.
All men of European origin turned out to be carriers of Y-chromosome lines included in haplogroups I1, I2 and R1b1a. The first of them is usually found in the countries of Northern Europe, the second in Western and Eastern Europe, and the third in Western Europe. The three Africans belonged to the Y-chromosomal haplogroup E1b1s, which is common in populations of West, Central and South Africa, as well as among people of African descent in the Americas.
The scientists then decided to find out if any of the 11 people were biologically related, for which they analyzed autosomal data. So, individuals AR06 and AR07, AR07 and AR02, AR10 and AR11 turned out to be first-degree relatives, and individuals AR06 and AR02 were second-degree relatives. Drawing on data from their mitochondrial genomes and Y chromosome sequences, the researchers concluded that an adult AR10 African male was the father of a young AR11 child, the earliest known example found in an African population of North America. It appears that the infant AR02 was the son of an adult female AR07 who died at the age of 35-45. And her mother was an adult AR06 woman who lived to be about 50-60 years old.
The researchers concluded that five unrelated European men were buried with three generations of relatives (son, his mother and grandmother). This picture confirms historical evidence that in the early colonial settlements of this region, small family groups and unrelated men formed social and labor collectives.
Earlier on N + 1 it was said that paleogenetics examined the remains of 36 people (probably slaves) from the American city of Charleston, who died around 1760-1790 years. Nuclear and/or mitochondrial DNA of 31 of them confirmed that these people originated from Africa. Apparently, they or their ancestors ended up in America as a result of the transatlantic slave trade in the second half of the 18th century.
Syria restores family ties – Kommersant
On Friday, in Saudi Jeddah, representatives of the Persian Gulf monarchies will discuss whether they are ready to agree to the return of Syria to the “Arab family”. There is no unanimity, besides, the United States is putting pressure on the Arabs, which are sharply against any legitimization of the Syrian authorities. However, the process of normalizing relations between Damascus and other Arab capitals can hardly be stopped. So, on the eve of Saudi Arabia, the first visit in 12 years was made by Syrian Foreign Minister Faisal Mikdad.

The Cooperation Council for the Arab States of the Gulf (GCC) will meet on Friday in Jeddah. The main task is to agree on a position on the possibility of Syria returning to the League of Arab States (LAS). The meeting will also be attended by the foreign ministers of Egypt, Jordan and Iraq. Arab League summit to be held on 19May in Riyadh. And, as Reuters previously reported, King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud of Saudi Arabia plans to invite Syrian President Bashar al-Assad to it.
The Arab League as a structure has not played a significant role in the political arena for a long time, but the return of Syria to this organization can be an important step in legitimizing the power of Bashar al-Assad. In addition, this will open up opportunities for Damascus to develop trade ties with its neighbors, as well as receive economic assistance and investment from the Gulf monarchies. True, those who make contact with Damascus run the risk of being subject to American and European sanctions, but the East has always been able to find options.
Recall that Syria’s membership in the Arab League was suspended in November 2011, a few months after the start of the Syrian conflict. Around the same time, many Arab countries severed diplomatic relations with Damascus. The condition for normalization was the search for a political solution in Syria, that is, a compromise between the authorities and the opposition. Since then, however, all attempts by the international community to resolve intra-Syrian differences have failed.
Gradually, the Arab capitals came to the conclusion that the isolation of Syria would not lead to anything and it was necessary to re-engage with Bashar al-Assad. Moreover, having lost partners in the Arab world, Damascus has sharply stepped up relations with Tehran.
The strengthening of Iran’s military, political and economic positions in Syria was perceived by the Arab countries as a potential threat.
The gradual restoration of contacts with Damascus began in 2018. The United Arab Emirates and Bahrain were the first to do this. At the same time, the question of Syria’s return to the Arab League arose, but this was opposed by Saudi Arabia and Qatar, which all these years actively supported the Syrian opposition, both its political and military structures. In Doha, they still emphasize that they have not changed their position. Announcing this week the participation of Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Mohammed bin Abderrahman Al Thani in a meeting in Jeddah, the Qatar Foreign Ministry said that “the reaction of the Syrian regime to the expectations of the Syrian people is necessary. ”
According to the American newspaper The Wall Street Journal, in addition to Qatar, at least four other Arab League members are against the return of Syria to the Arab League. These are Morocco, Kuwait, Qatar and Yemen. Egypt is also reportedly hesitant, although relations between Cairo and Damascus have warmed significantly in recent months. The Qatari site The Middle East Eye also confirms information about Egypt’s thoughts. Citing sources, he points out that Cairo “is afraid of the return of Damascus to the Arab fold because of the threat of US sanctions.”
In recent weeks, Washington has repeatedly made it clear that it is against any action that would lead to the legitimization of the regime of Bashar al-Assad. The US insists that Damascus must first make concessions to the opposition.
In particular, last week it became known that CIA director William Burns visited Riyadh, where he expressed dissatisfaction with the course of the Saudi authorities to restore relations with Iran and Syria. However, the Saudis, unlike the Egyptians, who are more dependent on the United States, were not frightened by this.
Back in 2018, the crown prince of the kingdom, Mohammed bin Salman, admitted the possibility of a dialogue with the President of Syria, provided that Damascus stopped rapprochement with Tehran. However, after Riyadh and Tehran announced the restoration of diplomatic relations in March, the issue of the Iranian presence in Syria has ceased to be the main obstacle, although the problem has not disappeared. Nevertheless, Mohammed bin Salman decided that the role of a peacemaker was important to him, and after establishing contacts with Iran, he came to grips with the conflicts in Syria and Yemen.
At the same time, Riyadh demonstrates that its policy of dialogue with Damascus does not negate the need to find a political solution in Syria. This was precisely what was emphasized during the unexpected visit to Jeddah of Syrian Foreign Minister Faisal Mikdad and his meeting with his Saudi counterpart Faisal bin Farhan.
The joint ministerial statement following Wednesday’s talks largely takes into account the position of Damascus. “The parties pointed out the need to support Syrian state institutions, expand their control over Syrian territory in order to stop the presence of armed groups and outside interference in the internal affairs of Syria,” the text of the statement published by the state news agencies of the two countries says. But at the same time, it is emphasized that the political settlement of the Syrian crisis “will contribute to the return of Syria to its Arab environment.”
That is, Riyadh does not promise anything, but opens the door to the Arab League for Damascus. At the same time, the Saudis are ready to develop cooperation on a bilateral basis.
The ministers agreed, in particular, to expand cooperation in the fight against drug trafficking, which is of fundamental importance for Riyadh, as well as to resume air travel between the countries and the provision of consular services.
