Abstract：
Shandong province, located in the Lower Yellow River, is one of the birthplaces of ancient Chinese civilization. However, the comprehensive genetic histories of this region have remained largely unknown until now due to a lack of ancient human genomes. Here, we present 21 ancient genomes from Shandong dating from the Warring States period to the Jin-Yuan Dynasties. Unlike the early Neolithic samples from Shandong, the historical samples are most closely related to post-Late Neolithic populations of the Middle Yellow River Basin, suggesting a population turnover in Shandong from the Neolithic Age to the Historical era. In addition, we detect a close genetic affinity between the historical samples in Shandong and present-day Han Chinese, showing long-term genetic stability in Han Chinese at least since the Warring States period.
摘要：
山东省,位于黄河下游，是中国古代文明的发祥地之一。然而,到目前为止，由于缺乏古代人类基因组，该地区的综合遗传历史在很大程度上仍然未知。这里,我们展示了从战国到金元时期山东的21个古代基因组。与山东新石器时代早期的样本不同，历史样本与黄河中游新石器时代后期人口关系最密切，表明山东从新石器时代到历史时代的人口流动。此外,我们检测到山东的历史样本与当今的汉族人之间有密切的遗传亲和力，至少在战国时期以来，汉族人表现出长期的遗传稳定性。
