Distribution of the 'Yamnaya' genetic component in the populations of Europe (data taken from Haak et al., 2015). The intensity of the colour corresponds to the contribution of this component in various modern populations. The scale of intervals is to the right. The purple line represents the borders of the Yamnaya area. The brown arrow shows the direction of migration postulated by the proponents of a Yamnaya origin for the Indo-Europeans of Europe. The red arrows show the direction of the movement of the 'Yamnaya' component in accordance with the gradient shown on this distribution. The map shows that the 'Yamnaya' genetic component is hardly Yamnaya in origin; rather it is a more ancient component originating in the populations of northern Europe from whence it spread both to the steppes and to the cultures of central Europe and elsewhere.

The data, as written, were taken from Haak 2015. So the data was largely adjusted, and invented to make the map and a point, because in Haak 2005 the results were based on only a few samples, and many national and regional populations were not even present.
The results of Haak 2015 are those published many times over.

FWIW, my haplogroup is from the Balkans in the Bronze Age.
To the best of my recollection, Lazaridis, in response to a query, said that Spain-North in Haak et al is Spanish Basque. It's by no means half of Spain. In fact the rest of Spain doesn't even look like it's 20%, so I don't know what the heck Kristiansen is doing.

Yes, absolutely, this is with ancient analyser from Eupedia
