• We sequenced the genome of a Neandertal from Chagyrskaya Cave in the Altai Mountains, Russia, to 27-fold genomic coverage.
  • Chagyrskaya is a cave located on the Charysh River, in the Altai mountains, about 100km from Denisova Cave (Russia).
  • We investigated the Chagyrskaya Cave – a key-site of the Sibiryachikha Middle Paleolithic variant. The cave is known for a large number of Neanderthal...
  • The article presents the results of field studies of the Chagyrskaya Cave, a key site of the Sibiryachikha facies of the Altai Middle Paleolithic in 2021.
  • Researchers have sequenced the genome of a Neandertal from Chagyrskaya Cave in the Altai Mountains to high quality [Credit: Dr. Bence Viola, Dept...
  • Here, we present the high-coverage genome sequence of a Neandertal from Chagyrskaya Cave, located 106 km to the west of Denisova Cave ( 9 – 12 ) ( Fig.
  • Among the Middle Paleolithic industries of the Altai, the Chagyrskaya industry is paralleled only by that of Okladnikov (formerly Sibiryachikha) Cave.
  • At two of these — Chagyrskaya and Denisova Caves in the Altai Mountains of southern Siberia — previous studies had analyzed DNA from bones.
