I2a1 from the Dolmen of La Pierre Fritte (circa 2800 BC) in France

This is the PhD thesis of Marie Lacan, in French. It was posted at
World Families by Bernard Secher.
I don't read French, so I am depending on others and on Google Translate,
but apparently...
I think there was a basic Mediterranean-type population inhabiting much of Europe before R1b got there, from the Neolithic villages in the Balkans to those in Iberia, France and even Britain. On the y-dna side of things, it was probably mostly what we have seen thus far from the various...
I mean no offense, but you're too fixated on the "Dinaric phenotype" thing, its name ("Dinaric"), and on connecting it to y haplogroups found frequently among peoples supposedly possessing Dinaric traits today. That is my opinion.
I-P37.2 has been found at non-Beaker, Neolithic Treilles in...
Here are my y-dna (surname) line great great grandparents, James Holmes Stevens (1835-1902) and his wife, Olive Augusta Washburn Stevens (1839-1918).
My great great grandfather would have been R-L21, like me, but my great great grandmother's father was I1 (I-M253), which I discovered through...
R1b is not uncommon in the Balkans. It is just less frequent there than it is in western Europe. Unless I am mistaken, the R1b SNP trail leads through the Balkans on its way northwest. That is, there is more R-11* and R-L23 (xL11) in the Balkans than elsewhere in Europe. As one moves north and...
Honestly, I don't know about the original entry of R1b into Europe and how that worked. There are so many conflicting opinions and so little evidence that it's nearly impossible to say.
What we do know is that no R1b predating 2600 BC has been found in Europe and that R1b has been found among...
Sure those R1bs prove something: that R1b-M269 (xU106) was present among Beaker Folk, at least at the Kromsdorf, Germany, site. If all the other aDNA finds "prove" anything, those two prove at least that much.
The various anthropometrics you mentioned bring in the vacillations of autosomal...
While it is true that two Beaker Folk R1b results are precious little, it is all we have for now. It is worth noting that these are the earliest R1b finds we have and that no R1b has been recovered at non-Beaker Neolithic sites. It is also worth noting that Bell Beaker is primarily a western...
The first person I ever recall making the Beaker Folk/R1b connection was a man named Rick Arnold. That was back in 2008 at the now-defunct dna-forums web site.
But a number of past scholars have suggested that an early Celtic language arrived in the British Isles with the advent of the Beaker...
Apparently there is a problem with radiocarbon dating for the 3rd millennium BC, and especially with the use of charcoal from fires, due to the problem of old wood. Scholars like Marc Vander Linden have concluded that it is impossible to fix the location of the very earliest Beaker sites with...
I am not that familiar with Genebase, but they should have your haplotype listed somewhere. That is where you will see values for 437, 448, and H4.
Please consider becoming a Family Tree DNA customer so you can join the R-P312 and Subclades Project. P312 and S116 are just two different names...
Just go to http://www.ysearch.org/, click on "Create A New User", at the top, and follow the instructions. If you are a Family Tree DNA customer, it's easier. Just go to your Y-DNA Matches page and scroll down. There is a link there to automatically upload your results to Ysearch.

Did you mean L165 instead of M165? L165 and S68 are the same thing.
Do you have 437=14, 448=18, and H4=10? If so, you are in the "R1b North-South Cluster" and very likely L176.2- and Z209+.
Do you have a Ysearch ID you are willing to share?
My "pre-fabricated" opinion? Where did I get it, all "pre-fab" and ready-made like that? When I got into genetic genealogy, the idea was that R1b had been in Western Europe since before the LGM and signified descent from the Cro Magnons.
I don't think you know to which y haplogroups the ancient...
You could be right, but thus far the oldest Carbon-14 dated Beaker remains (~2900 BC) are from Zambujal in Portugal. The stuff farther east is younger.
What is especially "polemic" about what I posted, in contrast, say, with what you have posted on the same subject?
I am not certain what you mean by my opinion on the Iberians, but I suppose you are asking what y haplogroup I think was predominant among them. In answer to that, I would say that...
