CHG admixture in early western Anatolian farmers


Anatolian Neolithic farmer I0708 from the Mathieson et al. 2015 dataset belongs to Y-haplogroup J2a and is the most Caucasus-shifted of the early Anatolian farmers in my Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of West Eurasia (see below). This is unlikely to be a coincidence and provides strong evidence that at least some Neolithic farmers in western Anatolia harbored Caucasus Hunter-Gatherer (CHG) ancestry.


Note that the two CHG genomes sequenced to date courtesy of Jones et al. 2015, Kotias and Satsurblia, belonged to Y-haplogroups J and J2a. Moreover, J2 today shows peaks in frequency and diversity in and around the Caucasus. In other words, Y-haplogroup J, and in particular J2, appear to represent paternal signals of CHG admixture.

Unfortunately, it's not yet possible to demonstrate with formal tests beyond any doubt that I0708 has CHG admixture.

For instance, the D-stats below, in which a couple of the least Caucasus-shifted Anatolian farmers are Anatolia Neolithic1, while I0708 is Anatolia Neolithic2, fail to reach significance (Z=3). Please note, I ran the stats with the Amerindian and Siberian samples to test for Ancient North Eurasian (ANE) admixture, which appears to be a feature of CHG.

However, the results are all clearly positive, and might reach significance with higher quality data and/or a better reference than Anatolia Neolithic1.


Indeed, the subtle difference in ANE affinity between Anatolia Neolithic1 and Anatolia Neolithic2 is underlined by the D-stats below. Note that here Kotias shows significant signals of admixture when paired with Anatolia Neolithic1, but not when paired with Anatolia Neolithic2. This is despite the fact that Anatolia Neolithic2 is a higher coverage sequence (6.95x vs 2.66x) and offers more markers.


I0708 is unlikely to be the only early western Anatolian farmer with CHG/ANE admixture. The PCA above show that a couple of others are also pulling strongly towards the Caucasus. Indeed, all of the Anatolian and European Neolithic samples might harbor low levels of CHG ancestry. The problem with testing this idea at present is a lack of more basal Near Eastern ancient genomes from core areas of the Near East, like, say, the Levant.

Hopefully they're on their way, but in any case, it's almost certain now that CHG was already expanding west, and in all likelihood east, during the early Neolithic. This probably has some important implications for the peopling of West Eurasia and their linguistic affinities. Feel free to post what these might be in the comments.

Update 11/02/2016: I came up with new Anatolia Neolithic1 and Anatolia Neolithic2 sets using D-stats (by comparing each of the Anatolians to Kotias versus sample I0708). For a breakdown see here. Anatolia Neolithic2 now shows significant signals of admixture from Kotias, Dai, Surui and Han. This implies that it not only harbors CHG ancestry, but also ANE and East Asian-related admixtures.

If I didn't mess anything up here, then these results make the discussions about Kum6's CHG admixture redundant.

This should also be able to detect CHG in Anatolia_Neolithi2.

Simon_W said...

Congrats to this discovery. The question if Kum6 had any CHG seems redundant now, but not if he had any more than the others. There still was a remarkable increase in CHG ancestry in western Anatolia, eventually. And presumably this later swapped over to Greece and Italy. (Two of the Bronze Age Hungarians show a shift along the Greek/Italian cline, and we know there was yDNA J2 among them.)

George Okromchedlishvili said...

I am still entertaining the idea that kartvelians despite being probably the most CHG-related language group on Earth (at least on par with Abkhazs) actually belong to a language group carried by ENF.

There are four strong reasons for my conviction:

1.A very strong presence of G2a in "core" Kartvelian groups like Svans and Mingrelians. Especially Svans who look like they are super-dominated by G2a. I don't think that this is a coincidence especially given how patrilineal their society is.
2.A very well reconstructed farming vocabulary for proto-Kartvelian
3.The unrealtedness of Kartvelian to NE and NW Caucasian languages together with the abundance of J2 and J1 among NE-Caucasian speakers. Again I don't think that it is a coincidence that guys who are very CHG-like by Y-DNA speak totally different languages from Kartvelians
4.Isolate status of Kartvelian languages. If they are the remnant of ENF-like language group then it is not surprising that they don't have living "relatives". ENFs have basically "emigrated" to Europe where their language carriers got overrun by Indo-Europeans while "at home" Semitic, IE and Turkic languages have totally wiped out all "ancient" language groups of West Asia.

David, why do you say "and their linguistic affinities"? Are you saying that IE could have from them or do you allude to non-IE languages?

I am not sure that we will ever get a definitive answer to the proto-IE question, because we just don't have ancient data in the way we do with genetics. Its not like we can point to sample XYZ from 6,000 years ago and say "he was IE!"

@George

Agree with you, Early Anatolian Farmers might were speaking pre south west caucasian language. But on the other hand we should not neglect mtDNA lines as far as lingustics are concerned. I have not any idea whats the common mtDNA lines between south caucasia and neolethic Anatolians.

FrankN said...

Generally, CHG presence in ENF makes a lot of sense.
Animal husbandry seems to have developed along the Upper Tigris. It reached the Levante from there, possibly promoted by and accompanying Obsidian trade from the Lake Van area that is attested already for the late 11th mBC (linkl).
https://www.researchgate.net/publication/257155131_Networks_and_Neolithisation_Sourcing_obsidian_from_Kortik_Tepe_SE_Anatolia

Specifically, it has been demonstrated that the first domesticated NE pigs bore the Arm1T haplotype, which dominates in southeastern Anatolia, Armenia, Syria, Georgia, and Iran. Early Western Anatolian domesticated pigs (late 6m BC) however carried Anatolian Y1/Y2 lineages, and these are also the lineages found in EEF contexts.
http://mbe.oxfordjournals.org/content/30/4/824.full

"This temporal and geographic pattern (fig. 1) could be the result of two different processes. First, it is possible that genetically differentiated wild boar populations in eastern and western Anatolia were domesticated independently. More likely, however, is a scenario in which southeastern Anatolian wild boar were initially domesticated and subsequently transported west out of the Neolithic “core zone” (Özdoğan 2011). Then, following admixture with female wild boar indigenous to western Turkey, they acquired the local Y1 lineage that prevailed over the Arm1T lineage in this area."

Thus, pre-/proto-neolithic linkage between the Lake Van area and the Levante, ultimately also Western Anatolia has long been without doubt. The only question was/is, to which extent the Lesser Caucasus was permeable and allowed interaction between West Georgia and the Lake Van area.
Excavations form Armenis show this to be the case: Armenian highland sites served as seasonal camps during the UP (14-15 ky calBC) and the early mesolithic (11-10 ky calBC, unrel. for contam./ reservoir effects, 2nd phase 8 mBC)). They are culturally clearly tied to W. Gerogia. For the mesolithic Kmlo2 site, east of the Aragats massif, it is stated;
http://www.academia.edu/2563557/From_the_Late_Upper_Palaeolithic_to_the_Neolithic_in_north-western_Armenia_Preliminary_results

"The most frequent types of microliths are the backed bladelets and scalene (straight-backed andobliquely truncated) bladelets, which are related to the Late Upper Palaeolithic tradition of Kalavan-1, but are found also on Mesolithic sites of the 10-9th millennium BC in Georgia, for exampleat Kotias Klde (Meshveliani et al. 2007);

Other artefacts (“Kmlo tools”), which carry a very particular retouch (Fig. 10), are reminiscent of the pre-pottery Neolithic (8-7th millennia BC), both of the Near East and of north-western Transcaucasia;"


Obsidian dominated the Armenian lithic assmblage, but came from regional sources, not the Lake Van sources that are characteristix for the NE PPN. Which leaves us with some 400 km distance between CHG and ENF, for which AFAIK evidence of interaction is still lacking. However, obsidian gatherers, sheep and goat hunters/herders coming from the south and the north should have roamed that area. Chance enough for contact.

When looking for CHG further NE - the following article demonstrates the "export" of domesticated sheep through the Caucasus to the Mongolian Plateau some 7 ky ago, making tentative connection to the arrival of millet in the NCauc foothills by around the same time. [Accidentally, dogs were also on a move from WEurasia to Mongolia during the mesolithic].

@ David

Here is another clue pointing at CHG admixture in Anatolians. I seriously doubt that Iraqi Kurd C3, who is loaded with CHG admixture, could be modeled with qpAdm so well using only Anatolians and Potapovka steppe.

I don't have the exact numbers in front of me but they were very close to:

POPULATION Kurd_C3 Chisq Tail Probability
Anatolian 62.00% 0.55 94%
Potapovka 38.00%
Kotias CHG 0%

compared to these other very good qoAdm fits:

POPULATION Kurd_C3 Chisq Tail Probability
Stuttgart 47.80% 0.235 97.20%
Potapovka 22.60%
Kotias CHG 29.60%

POPULATION Kurd_C3 Chisq Tail Probability
LBK_EN 50.00% 0.35 95.00%
Potapovka 32.20%
Kotias CHG 17.80%

Potapovka would simply not have sufficient CHG for Kurd C3 to get such a good fit, if Anatolians did not contain CHG.

Taymas said...

George,

That would also make sense in terms of climate specialization, no? I've no knowledge as far as 6000 BC, but based on modern maps it would make a lot of sense to me that Georgia would be far more attractive to the neolithic package than the north side of the Caucasus.

Matt said...

Thanks. Those look consistent to me with AnatoliaNeolithic_2 being like AnatoliaNeolithic_1 plus a measure of CHG and AnatoliaNeolithic_1 having slightly more Basal Eurasian ancestry/less of some low level sharing with ENA that is in CHG.

Do you think qpAdm would work to fit AnatoliaNeolithic_2 as AnatoliaNeolithic_1 and CHG?

Davidski said...

I haven't been able to get it to work. But mixing Anatolia_Neolithic and Kotias in the same qpAdm models is usually very difficult, and especially in this case, I'm not sure which outgroups to use, because anything from North and East Asia, or even the Americas, might skew the results.

I did get a half decent result with about 12% of Okunevo admixture into Anatolia_Neolithic2, using Kostenki14 and Ust_Ishim as some of the outgroups, but the standard errors were huge, something like 24%.

@George

One thing I want to mention in the context of your post is that Svans have preserved a very interesting linguistic/social relic, namely a 4-partite division of siblings into man's brother, woman's brother, man's sister, woman's sister. It's a very rare pattern (I wrote about it in my book The Genius of Kinship) and it's not found anywhere in Eurasia besides Svans (we can reconstruct it for proto-Kartvelian), Basques and Burushaski. The latter two are linked into a hypothetical Dene-Caucasian phylum, but Kartvelians are not. (North Caucasian-speakers may have lost it but the fact remains - they don't have it.) This could be part of Kartvelians' and Basques' agricultural legacy but this pattern is not found anywhere in West Asia or North Africa.

Have you not counted Korean among these languages because it recognizes such a four-way distinction only for elder siblings?

male's elder brother: 형 hyeong (apparently from Chinese 兄 Mandarin xiōng, Cantonese hing1 "elder brother," but very well-integrated into the Korean colloquial lexicon with many dialectal variants, such as hei, hing-i, hia, seong, seongga, sei, siya)

female's elder brother: 오빠 oppa, 오라비 orabi, 오라버니 orabeoni, 오라버님 orabeonim (In order from least to most honorific. Some of these words, e.g. orabi, have also been used to refer to a female's younger brother or to all the male siblings of a female regardless of relative age.)

male's elder sister: 누나 nuna, 누님 nunim (the latter is more honorific than the former)

female's elder sister: 언니 eonni (also may be used to refer to the wife of a female's elder brother, and some people have adopted a habit of using this word to refer to any elder sibling, even those who normally should be called hyeong, oppa, nuna, etc.)

Other Korean words for siblings include the following:

아우 au < Late Middle Korean 아ᇫᄋ azgh: An old word for a younger sibling (originally, probably only one of the same sex). Now used mainly to refer to a male's younger brother, though it may sometimes be used to refer to a younger individual among a group of elderly women.

동생 dongsaeng < Chinese 同生 ("same-born," i.e. an individual born of the same parents): This is the normal word for "younger sibling" in Modern Korean. It may refer to a younger sibling of a male or of a female. To refer to a younger brother, the prefix 남 nam- (< Chinese 男 "man, male") may be added. To refer to a younger sister, the prefix 여 yeo- (< Chinese 女 "woman, female") may be added.

누이 nui: A somewhat antiquated word for a male's sister. Apparently related to Modern Korean nuna ~ nunim ("a male's elder sister"), but nui is more commonly used to refer to a male's younger sister.

I think You will be proven correct by future aDNA studies. More Imho the G2a/ENF will be found in Western Georgia earlier than most scholars assumed.

Just one remark.

**3.The unrealtedness of Kartvelian to NE and NW Caucasian languages together with the abundance of J2 and J1 among NE-Caucasian speakers. Again I don't think that it is a coincidence that guys who are very CHG-like by Y-DNA speak totally different languages from Kartvelians***

NW Caucasians aka Abkhaz-Adygheans also have high levels of G2a. Imho their level of J2/J1 is insufficient to link them definitively with NEC groups.
Their G2a is another branch G2a-P303>U1>L1264. The last common ancestor of U1>L1264 and G2a1-Y5797 ( very frequent in Kartvelians ) lived 17600 years ago. So the split happened even before the farmers existed.

Do this pattern give a hint to us that Early Farmers where more inclined to be monogamous ?

Davidski said...

Check out the update!!!11

Matt said...

Do the new sets have any interesting stats with European EN or MN or WHG or MA1?

Also, I had a look at the Supplement for Mathieson and the samples for both Anatolia_Neolithic 1 and 2 all look like they're from the Barcin site with one exception, so I guess that means the population structure doesn't maps to two different sites used, more maybe different ancestry in one community / location.

Anatolia Neolithic2 now shows significant signals of admixture from Kotias, Dai, Surui and Han. This implies that it not only harbors CHG ancestry, but also ANE and East Asian-related admixtures.

Another option could be that 1 has more ancestry from the Levant that depresses the relatedness to ANE, ENA, CHG. But we don't have any good evidence of that atm.

In terms of the PCA,the AN group didn't look unusually dispersed compared the EEF EN and MN, so I guess a question of whether the later groups also break up into these subsets of different relatedness to CHG (which I guess would show this the CHG / ENA related ancestry would take a long time to homogenise over history, maybe longer than expected from just purely random mating).

Davidski said...

These are the same as in the updated table. Only Karelia_HG with a significant Z score.

But I think that neither PCA nor D-stats like the way I ran them do a good job of finding the most CHG and least CHG Anatolians, because, as usual, the basal ratios get in the way. The ideal solution would be a Neolithic genome from somewhere like Lebanon or Jordan.

Here's a bit of the Admixture bar graph from the Mathieson et al. preprint. I can actually see the CHG in some of the Anatolians and even LBK farmers here. But the Hungary_EN samples lack it completely.

PF said...

Nice work! You know a discovery is good is there are some 1s after the exclamations points!!!11 ;-)

Well, I mentioned back in the day that Otzi seemed to have some ANE, obviously before the CHG genomes were uncovered, for which I was promptly laughed at. I still don’t know what to make of it, but obviously *something* is going on…

I also find it really interesting that Basal dampens the CHG/ANE signal, yet at the same time where there’s likely a ton of Basal, there’s also a ton of CHG and hg J. Though not vice versa. So there must have been insane population turnovers in the middle east, or continuous constant gene flow from northeast Africa, which is what “Basal” may simply be reflecting.

No doubt the most significant open question right now is what “Basal” is exactly. Like Davidski said, ancient Levantine DNA is sorely needed — not just one genome, but many.

FrankN said...

Under "Ancient European mitogenomes", I had provided a link to the most recent World Language Tree established by Jaeger e.a., 2016, using automated lexical comparison:
http://evolang.org/neworleans/pdf/EVOLANG_11_paper_147.pdf

In the tree three types of "unexpected" linkages show up:
a) S(E)A to Africa, partly continuing into S. America,
b) SEA/Oceania to the Americas,
c) East Eurasia to the American Pacific

I'll provide more detail on a) and b) later. Here a focus on c) pertinent to the discussion, where the tree shows:

1. Yenissean forms a clade with Tsimishian (SE Alaska, BC), which is linked to the Altaic macrofamily

2. Kartvelian forms a clade with Takelma (Oregon coast, extinct). This clade sorts into the Altaic macro-family, inbetween its Mongolic-Tungusian and Yukhagir-Turkic branches

3. Mochica (NW Peru, extinct) clusters into Uralic, next to Samoyedic. Uralic and IE are sisters.

4. Within the Amerind macrofamily, a closely connected substructure comprises
a) N Caucasian
b) Chukotko-Kamchatkan and Eskimo-Aleut
c) the Mosan Sprachbund (Wakashan, Salish, Chimakuan, Sahaptian, Molala, Coosan, Alsea, Siuslaw) from the US/Canadian Pacific

5. Also in that Amerindian macrofamily, Aimu clusters together with Maku (Braz-Ven border, unclass.). A sister clade is made up by Yawa (Japen Isl. off Papua) and Kebar (Bird's Head), next follow Zaparoan and Peba-Yaguan (b. Ecuad/Peru) [This already goes towards the Oceanian-SAmer links to be described later].

6. A (S)EA macrofamily made up of Sino-Tibetan, Hmong-Mien and Japanese includes Siouan as fourth member. Together with Siouan clusters Yuchi (Tennessee, isol., acc. to WP "well known mound builders"). With Japanese cluster Munichi (NE Peru, isol., ext.) and Busa (NW PNG).

Note that this is just lexical comparison that can't tell apart genetic relationship and borrowing/ "Sprachbund". However, even the latter is sufficient to indicate substantial contact, possibly resulting in genetic exchange.
Also, "chance correspondence" can't be excluded, but the multiplicity of identified connections makes it unlikely they all result from chance.

At least two patterns appear to shine through:

a) A trail from/ to the Caucasus (Kartvelian, N Caucasian) and Urals (Samoyedic, Yenissean), to/ from the American Northwest. [Note, btw., that the tree denies Dene-Caucasian, even Dene-Yenissean. Na Dene clusters tightly with Oto-Manguean (SW Mexico).]
In the "out of America/Beringia" direction, there has already been quite some genetic confirmation for that trail. Dave's CHG analysis here might be taken as support to the "out of Eurasia" move. Kartvelian-Takema (OR) is intriguing. If the connection can be confirmed, it would supply us with a terminus ante quem for the migration, namely early 2m BC, before Svan split from the remainder of Kartvelian.
Equally intriguing is Samoyed-Mochica. The Mochica were likely bearers of the Mocha culture (200 BC - 600 AD) that provides the first American evidence of fully developed ore smelting.

b) Japan to SC Amer. Pacific. Several waves may be considered. The first one would be the transfer of Jomon ceramics to coastal Ecuador during the late 4th mBC, signified by the Ainu-Ecuadorian linguistic connection.
A second, broader wave may tentatively be dated to the IA. It possibly rather originated in NE China/ Korea, but may have been better preserved by Japanese which was introduced about the same time. Evidence includes a Chinese report (Hui Sheng, 458 AD), American wolf DNA in Chinese dogs, a rare gene mutation shared by the Xoloitzcuintli, the Peruvian Hairless and the Chinese Crested dogs, and parallels between Japanese maki-e and Mexican maque lacquering technology.
Siouan as East Asian language family is particularly intriguing, and provides a possible link from Chinese to North American mound building, which started around 3500 BC.

Matt said...

Thanks. There's not a strong clear pattern to those (Esperstedt_MN near the highest, then Iberia_Chalcolithic least significant, Iberian_MN intermediate, Bichon non-sig etc.) so maybe an effect of the Basal Eurasian or other slight differences in population structure affect those. Might be that because those closely West Eurasian populations are close, even though the overlapping SNPs are high, random effects can get involved it's harder to find enough to distinguish.

PF: continuous constant gene flow from northeast Africa, which is what “Basal” may simply be reflecting

The theory against BE being anything related to Africans is that a) African admixture that would pushes EEF away from WHG / ANE / ENA would take it closer to Africans than they are and b) more tenuously maybe, the level of Neanderthal admix is the same so Basal Eurasian had to have gone through that event (I say more tenuously because Neanderthal admix is hard to measure).

I think Basal Eurasian not being anything African would also mean D stats like

should all be basically around D: 0 and Z:0 (although a population without Eurasian ancestry close to the Eurasian bottleneck like a working version of the Mota sample would work better).

FrankN said...

Continuing with a run through the 2016 World Language Tree, here the SEA/ Oceania connections to the Americas. Linkage has been demonstrated through shared Denisovan ancestry, and in the Raghavan e.a. and Skoglund/Reich e.a. 2015 studies on the peopling of the Americas. Other evidence includes Coconut DNA (from S Phillip. to Mesoamerica by 300 BC) and Polynesian-American contact.
Sorting out the initial and follow-up contacts will be difficult, and should, aside from aDNA (of which Raghavan 2015 has supplied some), also call for much more fine-grained sets of Papuan DNA.

1. Great and South Andamese (incl. Onge) cluster with Maybrat (PNG Bird's head) and Anem (New Brit., isol.). Sister clades are Lakes-Plain, Eleman and W.Bougainville languages (all PNG). The latter form a clade with Piraha (Amaz. Brazil, isol.).

2. Inside a primarily Papuan-Australian macro-family that includes Trans-New Guinea (TNG) and Pama-Nyungan (PN), Asmat-Kamoro (Papua, TNG) cluster with Chapacura (Amaz., extinct). A sister clade combines Kwerba, Kapauri (both NC Papua), Waroani and Arawan (both Amazonia). The "cousin" structure, otherwise mostly Papuan, clusters together Kamsa (Colombia), Yaruro (Venez.) and Senagi (C NGuin), with N. Halmaheran as sister clade. Further down in that structure, deeply nested within various TNG languages, Pawaia (SC NGuin) and Warao (Venez/Guyana) form a sub-clade.

3. Nested in the Amerind macrostructure is a clade of Andoque (S Colomb), Kwomtari (N NGuin) and Enggano (off Sumatra, AN). Sister clades are Tucanoan, Saliban and Yuwana (all Orinoco Basin), and the Tupian family, widespread across Brazil, which ao includes Surui and Karitiana.

4. What appears to be a Pacific Coast family, comprising a/o Yamana (S.Chile), Guahiban (Col), Lencan (Hond/El Salv), Chumash and Penutian (CA to WA), includes the following sub-clades:
a) Pech (Hond., Chibchan), Yokuts (CA, isol) and Kayagar (SW NGuin);
b) Jivaroan (Ecuad) and Yele (Rossel Isl. off SE NGuin)

5. The Timor-Alor-Pantar (TAP) Family includes, in addition to a few Papuan isolates (Yale, Kaure, Hattam), the following subclades:
a) Atakapa (Louisiana, isol.), Pyu (NW PNG, isol.) and Abui (NW Alor Isl., TAP)
b) Wiyot (CA, Algic) and W Bomberai (Papua, TAP)
c) Fur (Darfur, NS), Puri (SW Brazil, MGe)

6. The Tai-Kadai Family includes Guachai (WBraz, isol.)

7. A separate clade, attached to Oceanic (AN), is made up by Central Solomons languages and Karaja (Braz., MGe).

Note in addition the Ainu and Japanese linkages listed in my previous post, which include "stopovers" in Northern Papua en route to Ecuador/Peru. Trans-Indian Ocean linkages to be described in my next post will provide a few more Oceanic-South American links.

To finish up with the World Language Tree, here the connections between Asia and Africa, and beyond both:

1. Dravidian forms a macro-family with Nilo-Saharan, Niger-Congo and KhoiSan. Kunama (Eritrea, NS) clusters immediately with Dravidian.

2.The Afro-Dravidian macrofamily also includes, next to most of Nilo-Sudanic, a subcluster made up by
a) South Birds Head and Mairasi (both W New Guinea)
b) Temne-Baga (Sierra Leone/ Guinea, NC)
c) Hadza (Tanz,isol) and Shabo (Eth, NS)
d) Sko (PNG, isol) and Kanoé (E Brazil, isol)
e) Ijoid (Niger Delta, NC)

3. Attached to Afro-Dravidian is a separate family, consisting of
a) Kenabol (Malaya, extinct) in a clade with Kulango-Lorhon (CIV, NC);
b) Gumuz-Koman (WEth/SSudan, NS)

4. Within Afro-Dravidian, the first branches off the KhoiSan Family are
a) Sandawe and Kawesqar (Patagonia, isol)
b) Sape (SW Venez, isol) and Kambot (PNG, LSR)

5. Within AfroAsiatic, Nihali forms a clade with some Cushitic languages, Moggodo, a HG language from Central Kenya being the closest relative. The clade furthermore includes South Cushitic languages from Tanzania (Iraqw, Burunge, Jwadza), and Abun (Papua, Birds Head)

6. Within a generally Papuan-Australian macrofamily, the following clades are found:
a) Korean and Burushaki, directly next to
b) Songhay (NS), Pulabu (N NGuin, TNG), Klamath (Oregon coast), Kala Lagaw Ya (N Queensland, PN)
c) Laal (Chad, unclass.) within Nuclear Trans-New Guinea,
plus, all clustering together with Australian languages,
d) Nivkh and Araucarian (SC Chile)
e) Trumai (C. Brazil, isol.) and Kaingang (Brazil, MGe), clustering with Banaro and Awar (b. N NGuin, LSR) and a couple of PN languages from N Queensland.
f) Kordofanian (S Sudan, NC) and Tiwi (Tiwi isl., NAustr., isol)

7. Embedded in a SW American/Andean cluster of Quechua, Aymara, Barbacoan, Chipaya and, Yuracare,, which also includes Tunica (low.Miss., ext.),
a) Beria and Berti (E. Saharan) form a clade with Kunza (N Peru, isol.);
b) a sister clade is made up by Leko (S L. Chad, NC), Cofan (Ecuad/ Col.) and Paez (Col lowland).

Afro-Dravidian and Nihali-Cushitic correspond to post-Mota Indo-African contacts. The spread of bananas, possibly also taro/yam, from insular SEA to W.Afr. may be reflected in some of the linkages under 2/3/6. Kunza (7) shows strong SEA (TK, AuA) influence, e.g. numerals, that isn't reflected in the tree, but may provide the bridge to East Saharan.
Some of the other clusters (e.g. Nivkh-Autralian-Araucarian, KhoiSan-Sape/Venez.) just look weird and so far lack archeologically plausible explanation. However, remember that there also have been "weird" D-stats showing up in Skoglund/Reich 2015, e.g. for Maya-Turkmen or Pima-Tshwa. Thus, I wouldn't exclude the possibility of quite ancient and basal connections showing up here, possibly somewhat randomly and on the borderline to "chance correspondence".

Otherwise worth mentionning from the tree:

1. Attached to AusA is a clade of Kusunda and Shom Penh;

2.The earliest spin-off within IE is a clade of Celtic, Albanian, and Brahui (NDrav, attached to Albanian). The further splitting sequence (2) Armenian, (3) Indo-Aryan, (4) Graeco-Romance (5) Germanic vs. Balto-Slavic. Hittite and Tocharian are not included.

FIY, Imeretians (i.e. another Kartvelian population) have considerably greater G2a frequency than Megrelians. In particular, the ones in Upper Imereti are almost 'super-dominated' by G2a and represent the largest G2a population among Kartvelians based on pretty representative samples.

George Okromchedlishvili said...

@Lexo.

Wow, missed this. Could be another support to "my" "theory" (just a speculation so far)
Then again we know that kartvelians have spread from South-West to North-East (for example most Kakhetia was Caucasus Albanian just 2 thousand YBP)

@Aram

That's interesting. Do you have a link to this estimate? I thought it was more like 8-10 thousand years of separation.
NWC is tricky but it seems like it likely is connected to NEC on a deeper level. Or it could be another Neolithic Farmer language, who knows.

German Dziebel said...

@Ebizur

"Have you not counted Korean among these languages because it recognizes such a four-way distinction only for elder siblings?"

This Korean type is upstream from the one found among Basques, Svans and Burushaski. Sibling terms get progressively simplified as distinctions get removed: Korean has 6, Svan has 4, Georgian, Mingrelian has 2. Uralics and Altaics removed the relative sex distinctions but kept the relative age distinctions, Basques, proto-Kartvelians and Burushaski did the opposite - kept the relative sex distinction but dropped relative age. The oldest sibling term sets in Eurasia are found in Ainu, Koreans, some Hmong-Mien groups, some Sino-Tibetan groups (very rare) and Papua New Guineans. But the one that Svans and Basques have are rather unique.

They split just under the G2a-P15. Estimate based on Yfull

http://yfull.com/tree/G-P15/

In fact the Kartvelian G2a1 seems to be very old and unique branch.


FrankN

**2.The earliest spin-off within IE is a clade of Celtic, Albanian, and Brahui (NDrav, attached to Albanian). **

Woow. I think You are aware that Albanians have high level of J2b2a. But the most perplexing thing is that the basal J2b2* is found in South Asia. I have strong suspicion that J2b is a secondary minor IE marker. Some calculations shows that perhaps it's real TMRCA is much lower than is assumed by Yfull

Matt said...

Thanks David. Those show that if anything Mbuti and Yoruba seem to have more sharing with the Anatolia_Neolithic2 group, Kotias, Loschbour, Samara_Yamnaya and Dai than they do with Anatolia_Neolithic1 group. Although without significance.

Krefter said...

@Chad,

Did you get that email with D-stats I sent you, David, and Tobus? The results will be interesting.

Matt said...

@ Chad, thanks for all those. As expected looks like the D(Chimp,West African,Anatolia_Neolithic,Eurasian) stats are non-significant below 3, particularly with the Loschbour HG and Dai, except for the ones involving modern day Near East / Middle East populations who do seem to have African ancestry (BedouinA, BedouinB, Palestinian, Egyptian).

Interesting that the Iberia_EN stats, although they're *all* significant below 3, they all consistently change by around -0.0064 in their D (compared to the equivalent Anatolia_Neolithic stat), and this causes the NE / ME comparisons to become non-significant. That sounds like it could be West African ancestry contribute to them, or another population could contribute to both West Africans and Iberian_EN (Mesolithic North Africans?), or could be some Iberia_EN to West Africa (but then I would expect that to mean relatedness to Anatolia_Neolithic as well, since not much time for Iberia_EN and Anatolia_Neolithic?).

I also wonder if, if Davidski has identified a least admixed subgroup of Anatolia_Neolithic in Anatolia_Neolithic1, whether that would give significant D(Chimp,West African,Anatolia_Neolithic1,Iberia_EN stats). Also, Chad, do you find any signal in the D(Chimp, West African,Loschbour, La Brana) if you tried any of those?

Unknown said...

I can check it out. One interesting thing is that an f3 Anatolian Loschbour EEF pop is negative for LBK and Hungary, but not Iberia. Even though Iberia shares the most drift with Loschbour. There is something special about Iberia.

This is somewhat off topic, but not too much. At Anthrogenica, Chad has posted these results, in order to gauge levels of steppe ancestry in South Central Asia:

As Alberto pointed out, a serious issue here is that Paniya are terrible non-IE references for the Tajiks, and probably for the Pashtuns as well, considering BMAC were quite unlikely to resemble the Paniya (same for IVC as well). This is very problematic, but we can't change that until we have South Central Asian aDNA.

But one thing that can be changed is the European population in the formula.

It really doesn't make sense to use Loschbour, as South Central Asians don't have much in the way of WHG ancestry (although they seem to have very substantial EHG/MA1-related ancestry). Which is quite expected, as steppe populations seem to have very little of it themselves (in the case of Sintashta and Andronovo, it seems that they don't have any WHG admixture. They just have WHG-related ancestry via EEF), and South Central Asians are a mix of ancient steppe, West Asian/Caucasus, and South Asian ancestries.

And surely the middle Neolithic population is very far from being a good gauge of steppe ancestry either, as it lacks both EHG and CHG. It's just Anatolian Neolithic + WHG.

If one wants actual estimates of steppe ancestry, why not use steppe populations? So, I was hoping Chad could try these:

Chad said...

Sein,

What I was doing is using f4. You have to use a West Eurasian that is more distant from L3. That is how you're supposed to do it. I've already done the f4 on Paniyas. They came out 75% Onge, 25% Kotias. What I was looking for is the percent of Sintashta and then comparing it to the Dstat Onge Tajik_Ishkashim Kotias Sintashta. This allows me to compare the best admixing population and how the f4 looks. If you look over the previous two pages on that thread and my explanation to Alberto, you'll understand why I did it that way. What you're asking for is just shared drift with Andronovo. That doesn't tell us much as far as admixing populations and it can't give us any percentages.

Chad said...

This had nothing to do with presuming what BMAC or anything else was like, with the Paniya. But, it can tell us just where to go from Paniyas to that pop by looking at my dstat admixing population and the f4. Please, read over those pages again. Alberto didn't understand what I was doing and why.

BTW, I'm very certain Sintashta does have a good amount of WHG. I think it is close to the amount in Iberia_MN. In my new calculator, they're about 26% WHG, 22% Near East, 23% CHG, and 29% EHG.

I'll continue to work on this.

When I say Iberia_MN, I mean the European farmer admixture looks very similar to Iberians in terms of WHG/Near East

Davidski said...

And again with Andronovo (minus outlier RISE512), but this time with Paniya. Very similar to the above results with Pulliyar, and my TreeMix runs.

Yoruba Esperstedt_MN Tajik_Shugnan Paniya 0.755721
Yoruba Esperstedt_MN Tajik_Rushan Paniya 0.708391

Yoruba Esperstedt_MN GujaratiD Paniya 0.2765
Yoruba Esperstedt_MN Punjabi_Lahore Paniya 0.265459

Btw, in regards to WHG in Sintashta, the issue there I think is that one of the Sintashta with the highest marker count has no WHG above what is in Anatolia_Neolithic, and this probably caused the lack of WHG in Sintashta in the modeling done in the Mathieson paper.

Analyzed individually, most of the Sintashta samples do show extra WHG in all of the analyses that I've run.

Unknown said...

I think that Sintashta had more CHG to EHG than Yamnaya. Which number was that? I'll remove it and try it again?

Davidski said...

Can't see Sintashta having a higher ratio of CHG to EHG than Yamnaya Kalmykia.

The modeling in Haak et al. shows that Corded Ware came from a Yamnaya-like pop with a slightly higher EHG ratio than Yamnaya Samara. Sintashta is probably ultimately from the same source, albeit with more EEF admix than Corded Ware.

The Sintashta samples, from most basal to least basal...

Sintashta:RISE386
Sintashta:RISE394
Sintashta:RISE392
Sintashta:RISE395

The last one definitely has more extra WHG than Srubnaya.

Chad said...

Nevermind. Rise386 has 3% African from the deamination. Rise394 has about 1.5%. That might be the issue. I'll remove them and try it again.

Chad said...

Without the samples featuring African noise..... BOOM!

Davidski said...

Yeah, I had a feeling the post-mortem damage might be making them more basal than they really are.

Chad said...

Yeah. Sintashta has about as much WHG as Central Europeans.

Chad said...

Those around the Carpathians and Alps that is.

Seinundzeit said...

Chad,

Now I understand what you were trying to do.

David,

Thanks for running those. It's striking how those numbers match qpAdm, and TreeMix. Rather consistent.

Chad said...

Just a few with separated Beaker and Corded males and females, with their respective best admixing population.
