The genetic portrait of the Piast Dynasty
Poland
2025

This project aims to unravel the genetic portrait of the Piast Dynasty, the first historical ruling dynasty of Poland, which reigned from the 10th to the 14th century. By employing advanced genetic analysis techniques, including DNA sequencing of ancient remains, this study seeks to uncover the hereditary characteristics and ancestral origins of the Piast rulers. This research not only provides a deeper understanding of the genetic makeup of one of Europe's formative dynasties but also offers significant insights into the broader historical and migratory patterns in medieval Europe. The findings from this project are expected to enhance our comprehension of early European dynastic histories and contribute to the fields of genetics, archaeology, and medieval studies, thereby enriching our knowledge of cultural and biological heritage.
