new research is not agree with that theory they were farmers during the neolithic
You have repeated it countless times on this forum, and I am telling you again that the Balaresque study is wrong. Actually Balaresque et al. only wanted to show that R1b was not of Paleolithic European origin, as everybody thought only 2 years ago. Studies take time to be published. Their research probably originated over 1 year ago, when it only became apparent that R1b subclades were older in the east than in the west, and therefore that R1b could not have originated in western Europe.
Since then people like me have noticed that R1b followed R1a in places settled by the Indo-Europeans from Siberia to South Asia. Recent calculations based on the latest STR from R1b projects like those at FTDNA have given coalescence dates for P312 and its subclades that are far too young to be of Neolithic origin. I had to revise in depth the history of the European Neolithic and Bronze Age, and that of the Indo-European migrations. Only after perusing through many books and comparing the latest coalescence times did I come to the conclusion that the European R1b1b2a was almost certainly of Indo-European origin.
Balaresque et al. did not do such a thorough work of research. Their aim was simply to deny a Paleolithic origin, not to prove a Neolithic one. You should only read that European R1b1b2
cannot be older than Neolithic (but possibly more recent).
The issue that remains highly divisive is where the Indo-Europeans came from. Some say Anatolia or Armenia, others say the Pontic steppes, others the Balkans, and others still Central or South Asia. I do not have
the answer, but the most likely scenario is a merger of R1b population from northern Anatolia/Armenia with the R1a herders from the Pontic steppes, with a merging point around the North Caucasus and north-east of the Black Sea (lower Don and Kuban region). I have explained everything
here. It's long, but yet it is very condensed and you might understand things better by reading first
The Horse, The Wheel, and Language by David Anthony. Nothing in his book contradicts my theory.
