On various map of Proto Germanic people, we can see that before the late iron ages, Netherland, Belgium and Luxemburg were not in the Germanic area.R1b U106 is high in the Benelux area and the surroundings regions.
It could have brought La Tène in England before being Germanized. (so English R1B U106 would be both La Tène and Anglo Saxon)
R1b U1O6 is higher than R1b U152 in Austria, the craddle of Halstatt culture.
So there are at least 2 Hotspot of R1b U106 that became "Germanic" very later.
Also R1B U106 is low in Sweden and Poland were Germanic culture is recorded very early.
To me, it seems that R1b U106 was germanized during the late iron age by R1a and I1 people from the Germanic Homeland (Scandinavia, Norterhn germany, Northern Poland).
