Neolithic
Genetic analysis of remains from a megalithic tomb near Bury, 50 kilometers north of Paris, reveals a complete population turnover around 3000 BC. The earlier group shared genetics with northern European farmers, while newcomers arrived from southern France and the Iberian Peninsula. Researchers link the shift to disease, environmental stress, and social changes.

Researchers used isotope analysis to show that victims were outsiders subjected to deliberate, symbolic acts of brutality. The findings suggest prehistoric conflicts involved structured displays of power rather than random chaos.
