Age and sex structure mitochondrial DNA lineage attribution of the 12 Neandertal individuals present at the El Sidrón site

Individual Sample Age Morphological sex Genetic sex Mitochondrial lineage
Adult 1 Tooth Young adult Male Male A
Adult 2 Tooth Young adult Male Male A
Adult 3 Mandible Adult Female ? B
Adult 4 Tooth Young adult Female ? C
Adult 5 Tooth Adult Female ? A
Adult 6 Tooth Adult Male Male A
Adolescent 1 Tooth 12–15 y Male Male C
Adolescent 2 Tooth 12–15 y Male? ? A
Adolescent 3 Tooth 12–15 y Male ? A
Juvenile 1 Femur 5–6 y ? ? C
Juvenile 2 Tooth 8–9 y ? ? A
Infant Phalanx 2–3 y ? ? C

Lineage A has the 200A-204T-16124A haplotype, lineage B the 200G-204C-16124G haplotype, and lineage C the 200G-204T-16124G haplotype (Vi33.16 reference sequence). In addition, all lineages differ from the Vi33.16 Neandertal by an A to C transversion at position 16177. Vi33.16 has the following haplotype at El Sidrón polymorphic positions: 200G,-204T-16124A.
