# Ancient DNA sheds light on the genetic origins of early Iron Age Philistines

Michal Feldman, Daniel M. Master, Raffaela A. Bianco et al., 2019. _Science Advances 5(7), eaax0061_.

Genome-wide data from ten Bronze and Iron Age individuals at Ashkelon show European-related admixture in the early Iron Age population that is no longer detectable later; the authors conclude a migration occurred at the Bronze to Iron Age transition.
