The studied material and its origin. a One of the chewing gums from Huseby Klev, (Fynd 2037), with two plastelina casts for each side. The cast to the left captures several teeth imprints from the left side of the maxilla, the one to the right is of the corresponding teeth from the mandible. The presence of the second molar and analysis of tooth wear suggest that the individual, who left these imprints was in the early teens (12–14 years old)11. Scale bar: 50 mm (photo by Verner Alexandersen). b The location of the sites, genomes from which were used in this study. 1—LaBrana; 2—Loschbour; 3—Bichon; 4—Hummervikholmen; 5—Huseby Klev; 6—Steigen; 7—Motala; 8—Stora Bjers; 9—Stora Förvar; 10—Yuzhnyy Oleni Ostrov; 11—Samara
