Yes, new results pop-up from time to time which is good. As seen on the tree on Yfull, the European branches departed from the Levant around 6500 years ago which would support the good-old (late) Neolithic theory that we discussed long ago. I believe the crossing point was Anatolia > Balkans. This line managed to reach as far as Portugal in about 1000 years. This line was never a major one, that is the reason why it is not showing up in ancient DNA so far.
Very plausible scenario.
