DOGS: DOMESTICATION AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SOCIAL BOND. This book traces the evolution of the dog, from its origins about 15,000 years ago up to recent times. The timing of dog domestication receives attention, with comparisons between different genetics-based models and archaeo-logical evidence.
Introduction. After more than a century of argument and discussion, it is now generally agreed that the single progenitor of all domestic dogs, ancient and modern, was the grey wolf, Canis lupus, but when and where domestication first took place is still much argued about. Was the wolf domesticated in one part of the world or in many regions ...

Jul 6, 2018 · Abstract. Dogs were present in the Americas before the arrival of European colonists, but the origin and fate of these precontact dogs are largely unknown. We sequenced 71 mitochondrial and 7 nuclear genomes from ancient North American and Siberian dogs from time frames spanning ~9000 years.

Dog domestication was multifaceted Dogs were the first domesticated animal, likely originating from human-associated wolves, but their origin remains unclear. Bergstrom et al. sequenced 27 ancient dog genomes from multiple locations near to and corresponding in time to comparable human ancient DNA sites (see the Perspective by Pavlidis and Somel).

Though it is now widely accepted that all dogs were domesticated from ancient gray wolf ancestors (Vila et al. 1997; Freedman et al. 2014), findings diverge on the timing, location, and number of domestication sites.
