Fig. 1. — Main features of our spatially explicit simulations and sample locations. (A) Exit out of Africa through the Nile valley and along North African coastlines. (B) Colonization of Eurasia with visible LDD events ahead of the main wave front. (C) LGM refuge areas in Europe and Asia and contraction of sub-Saharan Africa due to the extension of the Sahara. (D) Locations and sizes of the 22 samples used in this study. The samples are found in four geographic regions abbreviated as AFR for sub-Saharan Africa, ENA for Europe, Near-East and North-Africa, CAS for Central Asia, and EAS for East Asia. The different shades of blue are proportional to population densities.
