What is the ancient genetic history of Britain and Ireland? In one of my previous videos on the genetic history of Britain, I looked at the impact of migrations and invasions from the likes of the Romans, the Vikings, the Anglo-Saxons and the Normans. But what migrations took place into Britian and Ireland thousands of years prior to this?

If we go way back, species of humans – Homo neanderthalensis and Homo heidelbergensis – were in Britain from 800,000 years ago, living by hunting wild animals and gathering plant foods. Our species of humans (homo sapiens) are thought to have reached Britain somewhere around 44,000 years ago, during the last ice age, which itself lasted from around 115,000 – 11,700 years ago.

Rapid changes in climate caused humans to move in and out of Britain during the last ice age. During the last glacial maximum for instance, the period during the last ice age when ice was at is greatest extent, around 26,000-20,000 years ago, Britain was pretty much uninhabitable, and humans had to live further south. Somewhere around 12,000 years ago after the Younger Dryas period, Britain and the world finally emerged from the last ice age.
