Ancient DNA and protein preservation and transfer in concretions covering human remains

Project description:Archaeological remains covered with concretions, including human bones, are commonly found in certain areas and time periods of interest for understanding the past, but have yet to be investigated for potential ancient DNA (aDNA) and protein content. We extracted aDNA and proteins in tandem from human dental remains and the concretions surrounding them and compared them to non-concreted human dental remains from the same site. Concretions appeared homogeneous in colour and texture, consisting of a hard dark grey sediment adhered to the bone surfaces, presumably as a result of cyclical waterlogging of the burial deposits as well as postcranial human remains from a contemporary site. Concretions were found to contain human oral microbiome genomic and proteomic leached from the original skeletal source, as well as environmental and human proteins. Despite this, both the original element and concretions lacked endogenous human aDNA, indicating that the use of this type of material in future molecular archaeological applications is limited.

Ancient nuclear genomes enable repatriation of Indigenous human remains

Project description:For many decades Indigenous people, including Native Americans and Aboriginal Australians, have fought for their return of their ancient people. By sequencing ten ancient nuclear genomes of Aboriginal Australians and 27 mitogenomes from ancient pre-European Aboriginal Australians (up to 1,540 yr BP) of known provenance we demonstrate the feasibility of successfully identifying the geographic origins of unprovenanced ancestral remains using genomic methods.

Species identification of ancient Lithuanian fish remains using collagen fingerprinting

Project description:Morphological identification of ancient bone is often problematic due to heavy fragmentation that generally influences zooarchaeological assemblages. Fish bones are more taphonomically sensitive than those of other vertebrates as they are typically smaller and less biomineralised. Thus, taxonomic identification based on the preservation of morphological features is often extremely limited and can reduce or eliminate the usefulness of an assemblage for inferring taxon information. Currently, one of the most time- and cost-efficient methods of achieving faunal identity from ancient bone is by the collagen fingerprinting technique known as ZooMS (Zooarchaeology by Mass Spectrometry). ZooMS harnesses the potential of preserved collagen, which is the most dominant and time-stable protein in bone. In this research, ZooMS is applied to ancient Baltic region fish assemblages that are between 500 and 6000 years old in order to define species identity and construct assemblage compositions. Alongside inferences into environmental and biological shifts from the Neolithic era to present day in the Baltic region, we demonstrate for the first time the ability to distinguish between recently diverged members of the Salmo (salmon) and Scophthalmus (turbot) genera. ZooMS analysis highlights 7% of the collagen-containing assemblage as having been morphologically identified incorrectly and has facilitated taxonomic refinement of a further 28% of samples, including some of the morphologically indeterminate bone fragments. This research emphasises the great potential of ZooMS in identifying ichthyoarchaeological bone remains to species-level, and provides a case for the use of collagen fingerprinting in contributing to baseline fisheries and ecological data, to inform modern management.
