That is what many people have been speculating and that is what some bloggers fear most, CHG like ancestry in every Indo European or Indo European like culture popping up independently from Yamnaya in different propotions. The reason why they fear this, is because as the studies had been...
It's the same story with Mal'ta boy. Man it is really tiring to see some people making over and over again the same mistake (on purpose or not) that you sometimes feel it just doesn't make sense to explain it.
There are two possibilities with how we can explain Mal'ta.
A: Mal'ta (the ANE)...
Actually the ~50% ancestry they based on the CHG samples. Back than there wasn't really any Armenian Caolcolthic samples. Also the Armenian Calcolthic sample has less affinity to NE Europeans than the former mesolithic CHG samples. So there is no way it has any.
I have realized that you are...
Something else. Why are they holding back the Maykop samples? I mean they have published even allot of samples that they sampled after Maykop. Are the results so
big or why are they waiting. The same with the Harrapa samples.
Genetikers CHG component is flawed it is actually Gedrosia renamed. CHG like admixture in Yamnaya is around 40-50% why in the world would someone take the numbers of Genetiker before any of the real studies plus even most of the bloggers (many of them being actually biased towards EHG) giving...
Well yes, you need contact to learn something from another people and as we know contact always meant at least a little mixing in human history. Even if it was only as low as 5%.
Also as Angela stated some Eastern archeologists have a weird understanding of the term "Neolithic and agriculture"...
Yes but to learn how to drive a truck you need someone who knows how to do it and teach you, you can't learn to drive a truck by simply watching from far distance.
What I find fascinating, despite all these old R1b clades we have yet to find any R1b p25 let alone M343 there. Despite us having allot of samples from Europe and the Steppes, These two have yet to be found. Up to date they are only found in West and South Central Asia.
My bad I should have written CHG like, because it is unlikely that the CHG directly contributed to the Steppes since they are a mesolithic people and by mesolithic everyone was a H&G. However we know by fact that the descends of these CHG people became herders since we have herders from the...
The Steppe people themselves were already an agricultural people (herders) like their CHG ancestors, they were no foragers like their EHG ancestors. So the conclusion is obvious in itself. For what do they need extra farmer ancestry? Though they seem to had even some EEF.
Yes and you know what is so fascinating about the Iberian sample. It has absolutely zero signs of Steppic like admixture. Infact it is a very typical Anatolian_Farmer.
If that was the case we wouldn't see light skin genes and blue eyes in Anatolian Neolithic samples (yes even Blue eyes were found). Even Iranian_Meso sample had the genes for Blue eyes. And CHG had light skin and some light eyes too. The only "ancestry" that actually connects all these is...
How many samples mesolithic Europe alone do you have in comparison to the sample size in total even Neolithic, mesolithic, Bronze and Iron Age combined from West Asia? Exactly. Three if not four times the size.
Let alone South and Central Asia.
Very unlikely, it actually looks more like Northeast Europeans adopted it from Farmers/herders groups by cultural exchange. However how else are we going to explain the 25-30% EEF in Northeast Europe today?
Edit. As I see in previous comments it could be from CHG.
R1b in mesolithic Italy and Neolithic Spain. R1 in Paleolithic Siberia. Iberia to Italy to Siberia Proto_Indo European homeland confirmed.
Sarcasm off.
Contrary these two Haplogroups being so widespred confirm what I have been speculating and saying all along, that these Haplogroups outside...
Percentages are relative. Relative in comparison to group x. For example all modern Humans are like 95% almost identical, relativly to their other close cousins within the Homo group.
if we use only modern Humans for comparison with an interval of West Eurasians on one end and East Eurasians...
