Basal Eurasian

Basal Eurasian is a proposed lineage of anatomically modern humans with reduced, or zero, Neanderthal admixture (ancestry) compared to other ancient non-Africans. They diverged from other Eurasians after the Out-of-African migration and represent a sister lineage to other Eurasians. Basal Eurasians originate from the Southern Middle East, specifically…

Cause of collapse
Diverged into Ancient West Eurasians, possibly including Iranian hunter-gatherers, and Ancient East Eurasians.
Characteristics
A 2016 study by Lazaridis et al. found that populations with higher levels of Basal Eurasian ancestry have lower levels of Neanderthal ancestry, which suggests that Basal Eurasi…
Dates
c. 60,000-26,000 years ago
Followed by
Likely admixed into West Eurasian groups present in West Asia as early as 26,000 years ago, prior to the Last Glacial Maximum, with this ancestry being subsequently spread by la…
Geographical range
The Middle East, perhaps specifically around the Persian Gulf region, with a 'Common Eurasian Hub' in the Iranian Plateau
Preceded by
Diverged from other Early human migrations after the Out-of-African migration, representing a sibling lineage to other Eurasians
