Abstract
The first complete ancient mitochondrial genome of a vicuña (Vicugna vicugna) (3200–2400 B.P.) recovered from the Tulán-54 site (San Pedro de Atacama, Northern of Chile) was sequenced using mitochondrial enrichment by hybridization capture and subsequent Next Generation Sequencing (NGS). Morphometric analyses place this individual inside of a small size camelid group and Bayesian phylogenetic analysis confirms that this specimen belonged to an ancient vicuña.
