But do we really KNOW that the Sardinian was Z585? Could he belong to a branch further downstream? Did he have any Yamnaya ancestry? Or did he have an autosomal ancestry consistent with Phoenician ancestry?
Looking at YFull, every one of today’s members of Z585 is an Italian.
The sardinian was -z585. We can see it in y full tree. They are under italy as cagliari.
He was not yamnaya because nuraghics came in at which was your claim, 1800bc.
And like I said z585 is 3400bc which is over 1000 years apart from the initial nuraghe. And autosomal dna can change in as simple as 3-4 generations. If they were from nuraghic it means they invaded yamnaya peoples and mixed their genetics. Haplogroup positions is more important than autosomal if people are mixing.
-z585 means they dont have z585 mutation.
Also we know that phonecians often hired mercenaries. So its plausible they hired colchians.
