Effects of spatial and temporal variance among lineages within ancient population samples when computing genetic distances between ancient and modern population samples. a Fst is calculated between the group of modern lineages and the group of ancient lineages considered as one population sample. Fst values are given for all sampling schemes in comparison with a homogeneous sampling (dotted horizontal line), with SP-H1 being the less heterogeneous and SP-H7 being the most diverse, for Nm 5 (dark grey) and Nm 50 (light grey). b The same principle is applied for the variation in temporal sampling, with TP-H1 being the least variable in terms of ages and the TP-H4 the most. See Fig. 2 for a graphical representation of the sampling schemes
