This category is keeping track of names given to genetic lineages in studies of autosomal ancient DNA. Lineages are usually based on a single ancient genome but given suggestive names as representing a significant lineage in population history, often abbreviated by three letters, as in EEF = "Early European Farmers", ANE = "Ancient North Eurasians", etc.
As of 2018, the scope of this is mostly limited to the Upper Paleolithic, between the "recent out of Africa" migration 70ka, and the substantial miscegenation and formation of modern lineages after about 10ka. Early studies on sub-Saharan genetic history appeared in 2017[1] but so far no specific ancient lineages other than generic "ancient southern African" (=KhoeSan) have been identified.
