Overview

Genetic study uncovered mitochondrial DNA of a medieval woman in Old Ryazan, indicating Western European ancestry.

Key Points

  • To explore the genetic structure of the urban population of medieval Old Ryazan using anthropological samples.
  • Analyzed a sample from museum collections of Old Ryazan
  • Conducted whole-genome and mitochondrial DNA analysis
  • Reconstructed the complete mtDNA sequence
  • Identified the sample as belonging to a woman
  • Found mtDNA haplogroup HV4a1a, rare in medieval Rus'
  • Showed potential maternal lineage connections to modern European populations
