Génétique, linguistique et histoire des peuplements humains.

Year: 2002

Type: article

Abstract: Recent and independent progresses achieved in population genetics and historical linguistics led to the comparison of their results on the origins and migrations of modern humans. Here we present and discuss several studies that show evidence for a strong link between genetic and linguistic differentiation among human populations at the continental scale. We further present the first results of our "boundaries" method, a new interdisciplinary approach used to compare genetic and linguistic data.
