Early Indians: The Story of Our Ancestors and Where We Came From is a 2018 nonfiction book written by Indian journalist Tony Joseph,[1][2][3] that focuses on the ancestors of people living in South Asia today.[4][5] Joseph goes 65,000 years into the past[6]—when anatomically modern humans first made their way from Africa into the Indian subcontinent.[7][8][9] The book relies on research findings from six major disciplines: history, archaeology, linguistics, population genetics, philology, and epigraphy, and includes path-breaking ancient DNA research of recent years.[10][11] It also relies on the extensive study titled "The Genomic Formation of Central and South Asia", co-authored by 92 scientists from around the world and co-directed by geneticist David Reich of Harvard Medical School, in which ancient DNA was used.[12][13][14] The book has been translated into Tamil, Hindi, Odia, Telugu, Marathi, Malayalam, Gujarati, and other languages.[15][16][17]
