Our collaborative research explores the genetic link between Pakistan's Dravidian-speaking Brahui & India/Bangladesh's north-Dravidian Kurukh-speaking Oraon. Surprisingly, no direct genetic connection was found, suggesting extensive admixture may have erased the Brahui's original genetic signature.
HPGG has two new papers out!
