"During the last ten years writers from France, the United States and Spanish America, and, although rarely, also in other countries, have begun to use the terms Latin America, Latin American, for the old and proper terms Spanish America, Spanish American. A third term, Ibero America, Ibero American, is also used by recent writers. Which are the proper terms? Which should we use? In the following article I beg to discuss this matter briefly."

🇮🇷 "The results show an autochthonous but non-homogeneous ancient background mainly composed by J2a sub-clades with different external contributions. The phylogeography of the main haplogroups allowed identifying post-glacial and Neolithic expansions toward western Eurasia but also recent movements towards the Iranian region from western Eurasia (R1b-L23), Central Asia (Q-M25), Asia Minor (J2a-M92) and southern Mesopotamia (J1-Page08)."

"We present 14 new ancient mitogenome sequences from pre-Phoenician (~1800 BCE) and Phoenician (~700–400 BCE) samples from Lebanon (n = 4) and Sardinia (n = 10) and compare these with 87 new complete mitogenomes from modern Lebanese and 21 recently published pre-Phoenician ancient mitogenomes from Sardinia to investigate the population dynamics of the Phoenician (Punic) site of Monte Sirai, in southern Sardinia."

Currently #AmReading Barry Cunliffe's 'By Steppe, Desert, & Ocean: The Birth Of Eurasia'. The illustrated #maps are so helpful for understanding and contextualising the written material in the #book. Trying to keep a track of the content without the #maps would be difficult.
