a

The polymorphisms showed are changes referred to rCRS.21

b

Sample names noted in this table, as well as those used in all the text, are the shortened names used in our laboratory. In Supplementary Table S1 the relation between each laboratory sample name and its archaeological label is shown.

c

The polymorphism in brackets was revealed through the authentication analyses performed in the laboratory of Strasbourg (France), since it is out of the region analysed in our laboratory.
