  1. Uncalibrated distances expressed as a percentage of the total length of Phylotree’s edges, as determined by our methods compared with BEAST2. The values correspond to p, and indicate the estimation’s location in Fig. 3. In the parentheses, we provide the standard deviation for each estimator, obtained from bootstrapping 100 site samples for every modern human – ancient sequence pair in the dataset. Note that the BEAST2 values presented here were de-calibrated as described in Calibration section
