Alans(with Catacomb burial ritual) from River Don 8-th century 6 had haplogroup G2

Still no R1a/R1b in Stone-Age Europe. I guess there is no point expecting to see any anymore. Also another hint that E-v13 came from Spain in the Balkans (5000 BC sample), not from Anatolia.

Three STA individuals belong to the NRY haplogroup F* (M89) and two specimens can be assigned to the G2a2b (S126) haplogroup, and one each to G2a (P15) and I2a1 (P37.2) (Dataset S3, S5). The two investigated LBKT samples carry haplogroups G2a2b (S126) and I1 (M253). Furthermore, the incomplete SNP profiles of eight specimens potentially belong to the same haplogroups; STA: three G2a2b (S126), two G2a (P15), and one I (M170); LBKT: one G2a2b (S126) and one F* (M89) (Dataset S5).

Interesting. We need more samples to see.

G2a3b1 ( L497 ) is an Austrian marker as per this rootsi paper ..............it is 80% of Austria

I don't know if I understood you right. 80% of Austrians belonging to G are L497, but this is different from saying that L497 is an Austrian marker or that 80% of it are in Austria.
