NEW YORK [Reuters Health] – A recent study of 31,000-year-old tooth decay found in Siberia shows how ancient humans lived.

The researchers said in a new study that these people lived in northeastern Siberia during the Ice Age and were genetically distinct from other groups in the region, according to the site "Live Science".

The scientists analyzed the genetic data extracted from the teeth along with the DNA from ancient remains found in other sites in Siberia and central Russia, and reconstructed 34 ancient genomes dating from 31,000 to 600 years ago. They compiled the puzzle of how humans are distributed in the age The old Siberian Cross and how they crossed the Beringland Bridge to the Americas.

The study said the teeth belonged to male children who lived in the Yan River region of Siberia, an area first discovered in 2001.

The study confirmed that the remains of teeth are the first evidence of human existence in this area. Surprisingly, although the location of the Yana River is located in the northeastern part of Siberia, the DNA found in the teeth showed scientists that these ancient northern Siberians were closely related to ancient fishermen West of Eurasia.
