In 2016, a research team led by bioarchaeologist Greger Larson (Frantz et al. cited below) published mtDNA evidence for two places of origin for domestic dogs: one in Eastern Eurasia and the other in Western Eurasia. According to that analysis, ancient Asian dogs originated from a domestication event from Asian wolvesat least 12,500 years ago, and ...
The earliest confirmed domestic dog anywhere is from a burial site in Germany called Bonn-Oberkassel, which has joint human and dog interments dated 14,000 years ago. The earliest confirmed domesticated dog in China was found in the early Neolithic (7000–5800 BCE) Jiahusite in Henan Province. Evidence for the co-existence of dogs and humans, but no...
Some studies of dog burials dated to the Late Mesolithic-Early Neolithic Kitoi period in the Cis-Baikal region of Siberia suggest that in some cases, dogs were awarded "personhood" and treated equally to humans. A dog burial at the Shamanaka site was a male, middle-aged dog that had suffered injuries to its spine, injuries from which it recovered. ...
Evidence for the appearance of breed variation is found in several European Upper Paleolithic sites. Medium-sized dogs (with wither heights between 45–60 cm) have been identified in Natufian sites in the Near East dated to ~15,500-11,000 cal BP). Medium to large dogs (wither heights above 60 cm) have been identified in Germany (Kniegrotte), Russia ...
Scholars now agree that most dog breeds we see today are recent developments. However, the astounding variation in dogs is a relic of their ancient and varied domestication processes. Breeds vary in size from the one-pound (.5 kilogram) "teacup poodles" to giant mastiffs weighing more than 200 lbs (90 kg). In addition, breeds have different limb, b...

Scientific Reports7(1):13443.Mar 1, 2019 · More recent studies suggest humans may have first domesticated dogs some 6,400-14,000 years ago when an initial wolf population split into East and West Eurasian wolves, which were domesticated independently of each other and gave birth to 2 distinct dog populations before going extinct.

Jun 2, 2016 · The question, ‘Where do domestic dogs come from?’, has vexed scholars for a very long time. Some argue that humans first domesticated wolves in Europe, while others claim this happened in Central Asia or China. A new paper, published in Science, suggests that all these claims may be right.
The analysis reveals that dog domestication can be traced back 11,000 years, to the end of the last Ice Age. This confirms that dogs were domesticated before any other known species.
