Modern #inhabitants of the #TibetanPlateau are #descendants of people who have occupied the ‘#RoofOfTheWorld ’ for the past five #millennia . In the biggest #study of its kind, #researchers sequenced dozens of #ancient #genomes from the region, #revealing where its ancient #settlers came from and how they #adapted to #HighAltitude living.
Despite its inhospitable environment, #humans have been present on the #plateau since #prehistoric times.
