Oh yes it is. Shulaverian hypothesis, is born and raised in my mind, against all odds, and I took too much BS, offence and put down from too many people for, if it is proven right, me not getting the full load of credit.
If you go to my runmymouth blog (Kickedoutdogs) I started detailing the migration to the north caucasus after 4900bc in summer 2016 so not really recent. The same for the incoming population (forefathers of Shulaveri) from the Balkans after reading Conoly et al 2012 about incoming pastoral populations during 7 millenium BC as far into near east as Hogoshim in Israel. So, summer 2016 (and I figure that out earlier) is not "recent" by any stretch of the imagination. And earlier to all that, endless comments on Eurogenes, obviously.
Note: When, and its all about when, not where, do you "propose" that migration occur and in what archeological context?
True, my personal hypothesis is pre-6000 BCE in the Ukraine/Balkans (M269) to 5500-5000 BCE in Eastern Anatolia/Northern Mesopotamia (L23, perhaps via Ikiztepe?), followed by one branch moving into the Caucasus around 4500 BCE (Z2103) and another reaching Iberia by about 4000 BCE (L51). So you seem to propose an earlier migration unrelated to copper metallurgy (as Shulaveri had none).
