CHG lineage as extremely conservative
 
 
: During the Early Holocene (about 11.7-8.2 KYA), the CHG genetic profile continued to be dominant in the South Caucasus. Meanwhile, populations in the neighboring areas—Zagros, Mesopotamia, Anatolia, and the Levant—took important steps toward farming economies, domesticating animals and cultivating plants. Archaeological evidence shows that despite occasional contacts and shared ideas, the South Caucasus remained a land of hunter-gatherers during this long period.
