Our last #commonancestor lived 4.2 billion years ago—perhaps hundreds of millions of years earlier than thought
#Genomes of diverse #microbes point to early #evolution of a rudimentary #immunesystem
The last ancestor shared by all living organisms was a microbe that lived 4.2 billion years ago, had a fairly large #genome encoding some 2600 proteins, enjoyed a diet of hydrogen gas and carbon dioxide, and harbored a rudimentary immune system for fighting off viral invaders.

Well interesting, #matrilocality of the Durotriges people:

'In southern Britain, the Late Iron Age Durotriges tribe often buried women with substantial grave goods. Here we analyse 57 ancient genomes from Durotrigian burial sites and find an extended kin group centred around a single maternal lineage, with unrelated (presumably inward migrating) burials being predominantly male. Such a matrilocal pattern is undescribed in European prehistory, but when we compare mitochondrial haplotype variation among European archaeological sites spanning six millennia, British Iron Age cemeteries stand out as having marked reductions in diversity'
