Genetic Legacy of Punan Hunter-Gatherer Groups in Indonesian Borneo

Punan Batu (the “Cave Punan”), the last living nomadic hunter-gatherer (HG) group who still literally live under karst rock shelters in Borneo, is the least-known hunter-gatherer society in Asia. To provide insights on the origin and adaptation of the Cave Punan, here we present the autosomal genome-wide SNPs study of the Cave Punan, including other Punan groups who speak different language from the Cave Punan, which are transitioning into a more sedentary lifestyle.
