Refimprove date October 2007 Geneticanthropology is a new branch of scientific study which deals with combining DNA data with available physical evidence and past histories of civilizations.

The database is scheduled to become publicly available from June 28, 2007 in PLoS Genetics , an open source , peer reviewed magazine.
