[QUOTE]Originally posted by xyyman: [QB] Quote from Reviewers “ Nevertheless, the work could be further improved by providing more details on the investigated mummies and a more detailed analysis of a possible foreign influence at the site. I am particularly surprised that the authors have not cited the previous work on the material that derives from the same collection. As far as I understand, Khairat et al. (J. Appl. Genet., 2013) and Lalremruata et al. (Plos One, 2013), also used samples from the mummy collection at the University of Tuebingen.. It should be explained why the previous work was not mentioned. Lines 55-57: “However, methodological problems and contamination obstacles… hampered direct investigations…”. What exactly were these problems and obstacles?? How many of them have an “identity” (e.g. name inscription)? (see also comment 4). Lines 137-140. “The affinity to the Middle East finds further support by the Y-chromosome haplogroups…” This is true, but the two haplogroups are believed to have different origins (J Western Asia, E1b1b1 North Africa). Moreover, both individuals with haplogroup J are from the pre-ptolemaic period and the individual with haplogroup E from the Ptolemaic period. Does this tell us something about their origin or any differences? The authors should comment on this.” [/QB][/QUOTE]
