a Available ancient whole-genome data from western North Africa obtained from the literature: Taforalt2, Kehf al Baroud and Ifri n’Amr ou Moussa5; decontextualized individuals from Tenerife and Gran Canaria15, and individuals from Cendro site in Gran Canaria21. b Geographical adscription of the archaeological sites considered in this study. Individuals from the Canary Islands with no archaeological site adscription are not included in b: five previously published individuals from Gran Canaria and Tenerife15 and an individual from Fuerteventura generated in this study. c Available radiocarbon data for the Canary Islands indigenous genomes. The dotted line in c indicates the start of the Castilian conquest (1402). The darker grey tile indicates the period in which the indigenous people of the Canary Islands were in contact with European seafarers. Previously published genomes are indicated in grey while genomes generated in this study are indicated in other colors. Maps made with Natural Earth (https://naturalearthdata.com).
