Archaeogenetics is the study of ancient DNA using various molecular genetic methods and DNA resources. This form of genetic analysis can be applied to human, animal, and plant specimens. Ancient DNA can be extracted from various fossilized specimens including bones, eggshells, and artificially preserved tissues in human and animal specimens. In plants, ancient DNA can be extracted from seeds and tissue. Archaeogenetics provides us with genetic evidence of ancient population group migrations, domestication events, and plant and animal evolution. The ancient DNA cross referenced with the DNA of

L'archeogenetica è una disciplina che si basa sull'applicazione delle tecniche molecolari negli studi di genetica di popolazione, per lo studio del passato umano, attraverso l'analisi di campioni di DNA antico. Il termine fu coniato da Colin Renfrew nel 2000 allo scopo di identificare le nuove ricerche per lo studio della storia delle popolazioni umane in Europa.
