  1. Jul 6, 2018 · The first appearance of dogs in the North American archaeological record occurred ~4500 years after the earliest evidence of human activity on the continent ( 4, 11 ). In addition, our molecular clock analysis indicates that the PCD lineage appeared ~6500 years after North American human lineages ( Fig. 1B) ( 10 ).

  2. The domestication of the dog was the process which led to the domestic dog. This included the dog's genetic divergence from the wolf, its domestication, and the emergence of the first dogs. Genetic studies suggest that all ancient and modern dogs share a common ancestry and descended from an ancient, now-extinct wolf population – or closely ...

  5. Jul 7, 2018 · Dogs were present in the Americas prior to the arrival of European colonists, but the origin and fate of these pre-contact dogs are largely unknown. We sequenced 71 mitochondrial and seven nuclear genomes from ancient North American and Siberian dogs spanning ~9,000 years. Our analysis indicates that American dogs were not domesticated from ...

  7. Jun 2, 2016 · They concluded that dogs were domesticated somewhere in Europe or western Siberia, between 18,800 and 32,100 years ago. And genes aside, “the density of fossils from Europe tells us something ...

  8. Mar 2, 2021 · Researchers analyzed the dog's mitochondrial genome and concluded that the animal belonged to a lineage of dogs whose evolutionary history diverged from that of Siberian dogs as early as 16,700 years ago. The timing of that split coincides with a period when humans may have been migrating into North America along a coastal route that included ...
