Holderin the problem is you seem to have weak knowledge on some of these things you open up. A corner stone of the Kurgan Hypothesis is that the Anatolian branch reached Anatolia by 4000 BC because of linguistics, this are not my claims this is part of the theory, just because it doesn't taste...

I think she can, since we have studies that exactly prove this. A study a year ago clearly stated that Paleolithic mainland Europeans were distinct from any known modern population. And WHG pops up just by mesolithic. A clear distinction needs to be made here between WHG and WHG like...

How can Villabruna look like EHG minus the ANE, if the whole difference of WHG to EHG is the extend of ANE admixture ;) That is not possible. EHG, SHG, WHG all seem to be the same with only their ANE admixture being the differenting point. And Balkan H&G seem to be something of their own too...

It is so in general that people arrive before they are historically attested. And the main linguistic point is, if Hittite came from the Steppes via Balkan route it needs to have arrived in Anatolia already by 4000 BC, due to several reasons. One being Hittites very archaic- ness so the...

I didn't quite understand this one. Are their some IranNeolithic samples in it. And do these mean yDNA T, A, C where found or that a R haplogroup was found and these are the calls for it? or is it something completely different.

You are not misremembering. That is correct R1b1 and L1a as far as I remember. This West Anatolian Bronze Age samples are from the province of Isparta. A little later Anatolian IE language Sidetic was spoken there, seems to be connected to that because beyond the Neolithic pops only Indo...

There we have the origin of Villabruna. But there seems to be allot of R1 clades during the mesolithic in Balkans. It rivals Mal'ta. As I argued in the past. R1 is far too old to be just the lineage of one group, and must have been spred around the globe much earlier. Also it is far to...

It must have been East of the Caspian because even the Sarmatians show a little East Eurasian admixture and all their descendence do so too. Like the Ossetians. However I am not quite sure that we can talk of Sarmatians yet. Sarmatians seem to be the product of a Massagetae tribe moving into the...

Some more Sarmatian samples have been analysed. R1b has popped up too. So far Sarmatian/Alan Haplogroups seem to include G2a, R1a, J1/J2 and R1b. Pretty much typical "diversity" you see in most modern Iranic speakers.

Genetikers "teal" component is based on modern populations of the Caucasus. It does compose of CHG/Iran_Neo as well Anatolian_Neo and Levant_Neo. It lacks some of the CHG ancestry that is nowadays typical for East Europeans and therefore gets eaten up in the "East European" components in his...

I have tried to tell him this several times on this board already. But it kinda appears like he is ignoring it and keeps posting Genetikers admixture analysis which are allot of times bogus. With all due respect to bicicleur and his opinion (Most of his theories make allot of sense) but in this...

This thread is from 2011 holy cow since than almsot 6 years are gone. And I have far more information today then the time when I made this thread. You can link some features to DNA but pigmentation isn't a major one of them. Yet today you can tell by aDNA even pigmentation. It doesn't mean that...

nothing new here. I can confirm what is written in the article from experiences with various people. There is some truth in "Money doesn't make you happy". At least not if you have mental issues. But I have also realized these kind of mental problems are especially common in industrial nation...

Whatever it is about the image above is from near Khomein (warvasi/Yafte caves) they are dated to Paleolithic you can read it there. THe only paintings that are dated to 4000 BC are from Susa.

Nah LeBrok look at the website. It says those from Warvasi and Yafte caves are around 40000 years old (38000 BC). that is near the city Khomein. No one put a zero too much there ;). The Susa paintings are 4000 BC, thats still Late Neolithic/Bronze Age but from Susa .

unfortunately, only a link to a site with more drawings. Some of them (those from Susa) are dated to 4000 BC however some other are dated to Paleolithic. And Palisto confirms that the dating is though as certain 40000 years old, he wouldn't claim this if he wasn't certain and I know he does has...

Drawing recently discovered near Khomein show a person riding a horse with archery. Based on Dutch archeologists the drawings are 40,000 years old. If this turns out to be true then this would be oldest evidence of horse domestication. Horse Archery 40000 years ago amazing...

I have seen aDNA from Iraqis on 23andme beside a few outliars who looked either Arabian or Kurdish, the large majority of them appeared to be something like a mix of 6/10 Kurdish or Iranian, 3/10 Arabian and 1/10 something Assyrian like.

You think a population that does not cluster with any modern population, that basically is ~50/50 EHG/CHG-Iran_Neo like would look distincly European. Additional to that you assume you can say that someone with typical "European" aDNA could look nothing less than "typical European" just like you...

Even funnier, the fact that they weren't blonde but looked more like northern West Asians via skin color.
