Isolated populations are genetically less diverse but linguistically more diverse. A new PNAS study documents an inverse global correlation between genetic and structural linguistic diversity, and the signal is stronger than climate or terrain. #linguistics #populationgenetics #languagediversity https://www.anthropology.net/p/where-languages-diverge-most-genomes

Where Languages Diverge Most, Genomes Diverge Least

A new global study finds that the same demographic forces shaping human genetic diversity also shape language structure — but in opposite directions.

“Here we reframe the inference of coalescence times as a problem of translation between two biological languages: the sparse, observable patterns of mutation along the genome and the unobservable ancestral recombination graph that gave rise to them.” #PopGen #PopulationGenetics
