Ancient DNA reveals origin of first Bronze Age civilizations in Europe
The first civilizations to build monumental palaces and urban centers in Europe are more genetically homogenous than expected,
Despite marked differences in burial customs, architecture, and art, the Minoan civilization in Crete, the Helladic civilization in mainland Greece and the Cycladic civilization in the Cycladic islands in the middle of the Aegean Sea, were genetically similar during the Early Bronze age (5000 years ago).
The findings are important because it suggests that critical innovations such as the development of urban centers, metal use and intensive trade made during the transition from the Neolithic to the Bronze Age were not due to mass immigration from east of the Aegean as previously thought, but from the cultural continuity of local Neolithic groups.
