Figures

Figure 1 The geographical distribution of compounds (circles) in the village. Compounds are colour-labelled according to: (a) the Y-sub-haplogroup within Y-E1b1a*-M2, (b) the reported clan. The lines correspond to the spatial classification of the compound labels with a density-based Parzen classifier. The diameter of each circle is proportional to the number of sampled males in that compound; the smallest diameter represents one male, the largest represents nine males. The colour coding in (b) corresponds to that used in Figure 2.

Figure 2 Median joining networks for (a) Y-STR haplotypes, and (b) mtDNA HVS1 sequence haplotypes. Each haplotype pie is colour-labelled according to the reported clan of males carrying that haplotype; the colour labels correspond to those in Figure 1b. In the Y-STR haplotype network (a), the segments with the same Y-haplogroup are indicated by a similar background colour that corresponds to the colour labels in Figure 1a. The smallest distance between two haplotypes equals one repeat length difference in one STR. The diameter of each pie is proportional to the frequency of that haplotype; the smallest pies represent a single male, the largest 81 males.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
