Inauguration of the Center for the Human Past


A new interdisciplinary center of excellence will be inaugurated at Uppsala University at the end of April. The central theme of the Center for the Human Past (CHP) is to connect the efforts of archaeology, genetics and linguistics to unravel the complexities of human population history, movement, mixing, culture and subsistence of the world’s peoples during the last 10,000 years.
