Abstract
24 25 Objectives 26 The history of dog domestication is still under debate, but doubtlessly, it is a process of an 27 ancient partnership between dogs (Canis familiaris) and humans. Although data on ancient 28 DNA dog diversity are scarce, it is clear that several regional dog populations had been formed 29 in Eurasia up to the Holocene.

This process was due to replacement with newly formed dog 32 breeds. 33
