After thinking about the genetic pre history of Europe, a question came to mind and I'm curious if anyone here knows. Is there any estimates on the population size of certain key periods in Europe's pre-history from geneticists. In particular I'm wondering how many farmers left Anatolia to colonize Europe during the Neolithic or the population size of the Yamnaya culture and how many people left the steppe to spread the Indo-European Languages. For both of these sets of migrations are we talking, thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands?
