I know old anthropology cannot provide certainties, but it can help to see some historical changes:
in Latvia and Estonia a change occurred at the beginning of the CCC (Comb...): the prceding types, already well known during Mesolithic, an old mix favouring large dolichocephalic skulls with low and broad faces but rather prominent noses, received a ne input leading to mesocephalic skulls and flatter nose and horizontal face profil, evocating closely enough the Karelia pop of the time and more remotely the Neolithic Siberian types, so richer in north-east-asian input. But only genetics can say us if this modification is correlated to influx of new auDA and new uniparental haplos ( some Y-N1 subclades by examples?) -
this phenotypical influence of north-east-asians seems having been strongly diminished at the LN by the arrival of bearers of CWClike cultures (Battle Axe C)-
BTW, at the physical level, it seems that more than a time, it has been some alternative moves of Europeanlike WHG/EHG pops and Siberianlike ones in the Steppes (look at Botai, look at the Kalmykia Pit Grave) post Maykop Steppes people...
