Although the selection of LP and the consumption of prehistoric milk must be linked, considerable uncertainty remains concerning their spatiotemporal configuration and specific interactions(2,3). Here we provide detailed distributions of milk exploitation across Europe over the past 9,000 years using around 7,000 pottery fat residues from more than 550 archaeological sites. European milk use was widespread from the Neolithic period onwards but varied spatially and temporally in intensity. Notably, LP selection varying with levels of prehistoric milk exploitation is no better at explaining LP allele frequency trajectoriesthan uniform selection since the Neolithic period. In the UK Biobank(4,5) cohort of 500,000 contemporary Europeans, LP genotype was only weakly associated with milk consumption and did not show consistent associations with improved fitness or health indicators. This suggests that other reasons for the beneficial effects of LP should be considered for its rapid frequency increase. We propose that lactase non-persistent individuals consumed milk when it became available but, under conditions of famine and/or increased pathogen exposure, this was disadvantageous, driving LP selection in prehistoric Europe. Comparison of model likelihoods indicates that population fluctuations, settlement density and wild animal exploitation-proxies for these drivers-provide better explanations of LP selection than the extent of milk exploitation. These findings offer new perspectives on prehistoric milk exploitation and LP evolution.
- New upper palaeolithic rock art complex in the Tejo Valley, Central PortugalPublication . Pereira, Telmo; Garcês, Sara; Danelatos, Dionysios; Giraldo, Hipólito Collado; Nash, George H.; Adewumi, Opeyemi L.; Gomes, Hugo; Monteiro, Patrícia; Oosterbeek, LuizThis short report presents newly discovered Palaeolithic rock art panels within the Ocreza Valley (Lower Tejo River), central Portugal, comprising several engraved zoomorphic figures, including auroch and horse. Together, they substantially increase upon the previous headless horse found in 2000, and the style of the engravings is identical to Upper Palaeolithic open-air engravings from other areas of western Iberia, including the C & ocirc;a, Sabor, Tua, Siega Verde, La Salud, Z & ecirc;zere valleys, and Vale Boi. Currently, no clear deposits with Upper Palaeolithic artefacts have been identified over and next to the newly discovered rock. However, these discoveries indicate the occupation of Ocreza Valley during the Upper Palaeolithic and a possible concentration of Upper Palaeolithic rock art in this area of the Tejo Valley, yet to be established. If confirmed by future fieldwork, such Palaeolithic rock art may be overlapping the territory of an already-known Holocene-dated Tejo Rock Art Complex.
