Hungary_BA and Catacomb to model Modern Italians

Indeed, their autosomal admixture looks different according to the Wang et al. 2019 graphic:

The difference is slight, but it looks to me as if the Yamnaya had a smidgeon of Maykop in one sample, a bit more of Piedmont, and a bit less WHG than Catacomb Culture, plus a bit more of the "green" component, which here is CHG, or is it CHG plus EHG?

Sorry, wrong thread.

Following Jovialis Post #8 by adding Iberomausian samples to Target Data.

^^Ancestry fits even better, and it likely has more SNPs.

Here is a PCA with the samples in the code, projected against the other aDNA western Eurasian samples:

Thanks Jovialis for corroboration. I agree, Ancestry tends to give me the best fits.

I'm not sure how to interpret the green. My first guess would be CHG. But it seems a bit high.
