DNA evidence of bowhead whale exploitation by Greenlandic Paleo-Inuit 4,000 years ago
Our current understanding of the demographic history of Greenland relies on preserved fossils. Here, the authors sequence ancient DNA from four midden deposits and find a prominent role for caribou, walrus and whale species in Paleo-Inuit cultures not evident from the fossil record.
