- The genetic history of Portugal over the past 5,000 years.Publication . Roca-Rada, Xavier; Davidson, Roberta; Williams, Matthew P.; Villalba-Mouco, Vanessa; Carvalho, António Manuel Faustino de; Ravishankar, Shyamsundar; Collen, Evelyn; Haarkötter, Christian; Taufik, Leonard; Cuesta-Aguirre, Daniel R.; Tente, Catarina; Calleja, Álvaro M Monge; MacRoberts, Rebecca Anne; Melo, Linda; Purnomo, Gludhug A.; Souilmi, Yassine; Tobler, Raymond; Cunha, Eugénia; Tereso, Sofia; Matos, Vítor M. J.; Fernandes, Teresa Matos; Maurer, Anne-France; Silva, Ana Maria; Carvalho, Pedro C.; Llamas, Bastien; Teixeira, João C.Recent ancient DNA studies uncovering large-scale demographic events in Iberia have presented very limited data for Portugal, a country located at the westernmost edge of continental Eurasia. Here, we present the most comprehensive collection of Portuguese ancient genome-wide data, from 67 individuals spanning 5000 years of human history, from the Neolithic to the nineteenth century. We identify early admixture between local hunter-gatherers and Anatolian-related farmers in Neolithic Portugal, with a northeastern-southwestern gradient of increasing Magdalenian-associated ancestry persistence in Iberia. This profile continues into the Chalcolithic, though Bell Beaker-associated sites reveal Portugal's first evidence of Steppe-related ancestry. Such ancestry has a broader demographic impact during the Bronze Age, despite continuity of local Chalcolithic genetic ancestry and limited Mediterranean connections. The village of Idanha-a-Velha emerges in the Roman period as a site of significant migration and interaction, presenting a notably diverse genetic profile that includes North African and Eastern Mediterranean ancestries. The Early Medieval period is marked by the arrival of Central European genetic diversity, likely linked to migrations of Germanic tribes, adding to coeval local, African, and Mediterranean influences. The Islamic and Christian Conquest periods show strong genetic continuity in northern Portugal and significant additional African admixture in the south. The latter remains stable during the post-Islamic period, suggesting enduring African influences. We reveal dynamic patterns of migration in line with cultural exchange across millennia, but also the persistence of local ancestries. Our findings integrate genetic information with historical and archeological data, enhancing our understanding of Iberia's biological and cultural heritage.
- Mobility of populations in the transition from muslim world to portuguese kingdom in the Algarve, South Portugal, 11th-13th centuriesPublication . Maurer, Anne-France; MacRoberts, Rebecca; López-Aceves, Judith Margarita; Ortega-González, Alvaro Felipe; Relvado, Cláudia; Fernandes, Teresa; Curate, Francisco; Teixeira, João; Roca-Rada, Xavier; Llamas, Bastien; Luzia, Isabel; Pires, Alexandra; Simões Dias de Oliveira, Luís Filipe; Garcia, Cristina Alexandra Tété; Barrocas , Cristina; Schöne, Bernd R.; Ribeiro, Sara; Santos, Jose Francisco; Valente, Maria JoãoThis study investigates mobility during the transition from Muslim to Christian rule in the Algarve, southern Portugal (11th–13th centuries), using multi-isotope analysis to understand population dynamics during this complex conquest period. Skeletal remains from two key populations were analysed: the final Muslims buried in Loulé before the Christian conquest (necropolises of Quinta da Boavista and Hospital da Misericórdia) and the earliest Christians buried in Cacela-aVelha following the Order of Santiago’s capture in 1240 (necropolis of Poço Antigo). Contemporary faunal remains from trash pits and storage silos were also examined (Loulé: Oficina do Senhor Carrilho; Cacela: Silo 7 of Largo da Fortaleza). Strontium, oxygen, and sulphur isotope analysis of human and animal remains were combined with plant sampling for environmental baselines. Machine learning algorithms integrated this data with published Iberian Peninsula plant isotope ratios to create updated strontium isoscape maps, enabling probabilistic geographic assignment of non-local individuals. Ancient DNA analysis of selected Muslim individuals provided additional mobility insights. Results reveal strikingly different mobility patterns. Muslim individuals were largely local (~95%) with a few non-local likely from the Maghreb or eastern Spain. Conversely, the Christian population displayed extensive mobility, greater for males than females, with nearly 50% non-local to the Algarve. Potential origins were diverse and included regions along the Guadiana River and N/ NE areas. While Muslims showed no sex-based isotope mobility patterns, paleogenetic analysis suggested patrilocal social structures and highlight the complex genetic landscape of the region. The overall data showcase a colonisation process poorly documented in other sources.
