Furthermore we examine ancient DNA of medieval Székely individuals from Udvarhelyszék (Odorheiu Secuiesc) region, in order to gather genetic information from Hungarianspeaking long-time residents of Transylvania and aim to monitor possible continuity and relationships of the region’s populations. Here we provide 18 modern and 24 ancient whole-genome results (2.5-3x coverage for the modern samples and 0.3-0.9x coverage for the medieval samples) from the aforementioned regions and analysed 1240k SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) in the context of geographically and historically relevant populations. We discuss how uniform or different these Hungarian-speaking populations are genetically, and whether a regional genetic structure is observable. A further aim of our research was to unveil genetic relationships between ancient and recent populations. Our results demonstrate a predominantly local uniparental make-up of the populations and indicate limited admixture with neighbouring populations. Presumably due to intra-regional movements, there are no signs of inbreeding in the populations, but a signal of small population size is present. The whole genome results demonstrate the homogeneity and continuity of the medieval Székely population up to the recent Székely population. The results open up new possibilities not only for research on recent populations, but also for comparative analyses of the genetic heritage of populations of historical age. The research has a wider social significance: it provides an opportunity to interpret the genetic composition of contemporary Hungarians in a geographical and historical context.}, year = {2023}, pages = {148-148}, orcid-numbers = {Szécsényi-Nagy, Anna/0000-0003-2095-738X} } @inproceedings{MTMT:34484589, title = {Lifeway narratives of a Bronze Age community from Balatonkeresztúr (Western Hungary) based on bioarchaeological analyses}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/34484589}, author = {Kiss, Viktória and Gerber, Dániel and Szeifert, Bea and Székely, Orsolya and Egyed, Balázs and Gyuris, Balázs and I.

Our results indicate the presence of high steppe ancestry in the Somogyvár-Vinkovci culture. They were then replaced by the Kisapostag group, who exhibit an outstandingly high (up to ∼47%) Mesolithic hunter-gatherer ancestry, despite this component being thought to be highly diluted by the time of the Early Bronze Age. The Kisapostag population contributed the genetic basis for the succeeding community of the Encrusted pottery culture. We also found an elevated hunter-gatherer component in a local Baden culture associated individual, but no connections were proven to the Bronze Age individuals. The hunter-gatherer ancestry in Kisapostag is likely derived from two main sources, one from a Funnelbeaker or Globular Amphora culture related population and one from a previously unrecognised source in Eastern Europe. We show that this ancestry not only appeared in various groups in Bronze Age Central Europe, but also made contributions to Baltic populations. The social structure of Kisapostag and Encrusted pottery cultures is patrilocal, similarly to most contemporaneous groups. Furthermore, we developed new methods and method standards for computational analyses of ancient DNA, implemented to our newly developed and freely available bioinformatic package. By analysing clinical traits, we found carriers of aneuploidy and inheritable genetic diseases.

The Székelys can be traced back to the 12th century in the region, and numerous scientific theories exist as to their origin. We carefully selected sample providers that had local ancestors inhabiting small villages in the area of Odorheiu Secuiesc/Székelyudvarhely in Romania. The results of our research and the reported data signify a qualitative leap compared to previous studies since it presents the first complete mitochondrial DNA sequences and Y-chromosomal profiles of 23 STRs from the region. We evaluated the results with population genetic and phylogenetic methods in the context of the modern and ancient populations that are either geographically or historically related to the Székelys. Our results demonstrate a predominantly local uniparental make-up of the population that also indicates limited admixture with neighboring populations. Phylogenetic analyses confirmed the presumed eastern origin of certain maternal (A, C, D) and paternal (Q, R1a) lineages, and, in some cases, they could also be linked to ancient DNA data from the Migration Period (5th–9th centuries AD) and Hungarian Conquest Period (10th century AD) populations.}, year = {2023}, eissn = {2073-4425}, orcid-numbers = {Borbély, Noémi/0000-0002-1488-5298; Egyed, Balázs/0000-0003-3960-2052; Szécsényi-Nagy, Anna/0000-0003-2095-738X} } @article{MTMT:33701445, title = {A korai magyar történelem régészeti és archeogenetikai kutatásának legfrissebb eredményei Nyugat-Szibériától a Középső-Volga vidékig}, url = {https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/33701445}, author = {Szeifert, Bea and Türk, Attila and Gerber, Dániel and Csáky, Veronika and Langó, Péter and Sztashenkov, Dimitrij A. and Botalov, Szergej G. and Szitgyikov, Ajrat G. and Zelenkov, Alekszandr Sz. and Mende, Balázs Gusztáv and Szécsényi-Nagy, Anna}, doi = {10.1556/0208.2022.00031}, journal-iso = {ARCHAEOL ERT (BP)}, journal = {ARCHAEOLOGIAI ÉRTESÍTŐ (BUDAPEST)}, volume = {147}, unique-id = {33701445}, issn = {0003-8032}, year = {2022}, eissn = {1589-486X}, pages = {33-74}, orcid-numbers = {Szécsényi-Nagy, Anna/0000-0003-2095-738X} }
