DNA是从北方蒙古的额济纳旗墓地出土的62个标本的骨骼遗骸中提取的。这个墓地与匈奴时期有关，从世纪B开始使用。C.到公元世纪。D.三种类型的遗传标记被用来确定埋葬在Egyin Gol墓地的个体之间的遗传关系。常染色体和Y染色体短串联重复序列以及线粒体DNA的分析结果显示，几个标本之间存在密切关系，并提供了有关墓地内社会组织以及匈奴人葬礼习俗的额外背景信息。据我们所知，这是第一个研究使用双亲，父亲和母亲的遗传系统，以重建部分家谱在一个史前墓地。
DNA was extracted from the skeletal remains of 62 specimens excavated from the Egyin Gol necropolis, in northern Mongolia. This burial site is linked to the Xiongnu period and was used from the 3rd century B. C. to the 2nd century A. D. Three types of genetic markers were used to determine the genetic relationships between individuals buried in the Egyin Gol necropolis. Results from analyses of autosomal and Y chromosome short tandem repeats, as well as mitochondrial DNA, showed close relationships between several specimens and provided additional background information on the social organization within the necropolis as well as the funeral practices of the Xiongnu people. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study using biparental, paternal, and maternal genetic systems to reconstruct partial genealogies in a protohistoric necropolis.
