The great shift


Here's a Principal Component Analysis (PCA) featuring some of the ancients from the recent Saag et al. paper at Science Advances. To see an interactive version of the plot paste the Global25 coordinates here into the relevant field here.

Note that the Fatyanovo culture agropastoralists, who are rich in Y-haplogroup R1a and steppe ancestry, cluster with present-day Eastern Europeans. On the other hand, the Volosovo culture singleton sits near the European hunter-gatherer cline that no longer exists.

This Volosovo individual belongs to Y-haplogroup Q1a. However, most of the Volosovo males whose genomes are soon to be published belong to Y-haplogroup R1b.

Thus, in much of Eastern Europe during the Bronze Age, agropastoralists rich in R1a and steppe ancestry replaced hunter-gatherers rich in R1b and with no steppe ancestry. Of course, that's not where the story ends, but I'll get back to that later this year.

By the way, the relatively high coverage Fatyanovo Y-chromosome sequences are being analyzed at YFull. You can check out the results here.

I don't know what the Volosovo R1b subclades are exactly. I've seen some conflicting info about that.

Genos Historia said...

The Great shift.......

This touches on a bigger trend in European prehistory, which is that hunter gatherers didn't do well when farmers moved into their land. They were in large part "replaced" by Anatolian farmers then in large part "replaced" by Corded Ware.

Farmers became 0-30% hunter gatherer. Baltic Corded ware became 30% Baltic hunter gatherer.

This is the general trend with important exceptions. Like Patrilocal farmer tribes having hunter gatherer Y DNA.

Ric Hern said...

Where does East Asians fit into all of this ? Very interesting is the Ancient Central Asians form two almost seperate clusters with Ancient South Asians in the middle...? Does the Ancient Central Asian cluster on the right pull more towards East Asians ?

Ric Hern said...

I can already see some salivating with the words R1b and No Steppe. But I guess the surprise will be that some R1a and R1b formed joint clans in the Steppe just before CHG admixture came into the picture which would have made those clan 100% Steppe...?

Vladimir said...

Thus, we now know that at least three districts are being investigated in Russia. The first is the Volosovo and forest zone of the Moscow region, the second in the steppe and forest-steppe of the Don region, the third in central and western Siberia. These samples are transferred to the Max Planck Institute. I wonder if any work is being done on the forest-steppe of Ukraine?

Well the Volosovo samples will turn out to be mostly R1b M 269 IMHO

Vladimir said...

Taking into account this result for Volosovo, it is now clear that the entire population of Eastern Europe from the Black Sea to the Baltic Sea, at least since the Mesolithic, was EHG/WHG, to the west more WHG, to the east more EHG. Then CHG appeared somewhere in the south and another story began.

@ vladimir

the new story you are talking about is the birth of PIE? I'm quite skeptical on CHG being the vector of PIE. It seems to me more likely that a WHG/EHG population on the pontic steppe and till the lower don was the main vector at least of archaic PIE.

R1b Le destructeur de chattes said...

Judging by their autosomal, it's almost impossible that they be R1b m269, or at least they got the full m269 mutations package

"This Volosovo individual belongs to Y-haplogroup Q1a."

There is not a sample not of Volosovo culture, but of an indefinite culture that with equal probability can be Volosovo or L'yalovo. Don't forget about L'yalovo culture.

All Fatyanovo in this study and another Fatyanovo from Volosovo is Z94-.

Obviously you need to rename RUS_Volosovo_N to RUS_LyalovoVolosovo_N or RUS_Berendeyevo_N.


RUS_Fatyanovo_BA can be uniformly called Corded_Ware_RUS (Corded_Ware_Fatyanovo_RUS) since they are one and the same.

Davidski said...

I'm not renaming it because what really matters is that it's a pre-Fatyanovo sample.

Also, I know for a fact that it's very similar to Volosovo samples that will be coming out soon.

And when they come out, I'll be dumping this one because of its low quality.

Vladimir said...

Indeed, the document is marked l'yalovo\Volosovo. But I also think it's Volosovo because it has too much WHG. Volosovo is considered a culture that originated on the basis of the Valdai culture and the culture of pit-comb ceramics. And the Valdai culture is somehow connected with the Narva culture.
In Russia, it is believed that there are two groups of Volosovo. One is from the Volga Region and the other is from the Oka River. This one is obviously from the second group.

Anonymous said...

@Vladimir

"But I also think it's Volosovo"

This sample is too early for Volosovo. At that time Volosovo did not yet exist.

Norfern-Ostrobothnian said...

I don't think the Narva influence on Volosovo is that drastic, it seems to be more diffusion and blending of Baltic and West Russian HGs. Valdai came from the Upper-Volga culture after all.

Vladimir said...

I read somewhere that the Upper Volga culture was once called " the Upper Volga version of Ahrensburg culture"

Anonymous said...

Vladimir said...
"I read somewhere that the Upper Volga culture was once called " the Upper Volga version of Ahrensburg culture""

It was not called that. It was one of countless versions of the origin of cultures by certain authors. This was due to the fact that the Fosna culture of Scandinavia originated from the Ahrensburg culture, which turned out to be associated with the Komsa culture of Scandinavia, which in Europe was mistakenly considered a genetic relationship, but the Komsa culture, respectively, originates from Lake Onega and the Barents Sea and, accordingly, was linked with the Upper Volga culture. But Komsa culture is not genetic relationship to Fosna culture.

Vladimir said...

It would be like this if this person Q1b-pre-L804 was 100% EHG, then it is logical that in Scandinavia he would mix with the Fosna group of the I2a culture and get WHG. But he already has a WHG while still on the Upper Volga, so it was more complicated. Another is the hypothesis that the culture of the Upper Volga is based on Svidersky culture.

I'm sorry but I'm not buying the angle that there's little to no correlation between Y-hap and genomic ancestry, and it's all founder effects. Despite cultural similarities and a greater level of shared ancestry compared to their neighbors, CWC and Yamnaya look like very different populations with different histories/destinies. CWC is connected to major branches of IE and possibly somewhere near it's root, the actual PIE source. And I'm not talking a magical transformation from Yamnaya.

@Vladimir

The Upper Volga culture is from the Butovo culture, which in turn is from the Ressetta culture, which being there is the most ancient Mesolithic, it is not known from what. All outdated hypotheses about the origin of the Arenburg culture, the Swiderian culture are connected with the fact that earlier it was seriously believed that all people came to Eastern Europe from Western Europe, that the Mesolithic and Neolithic came from the West. Which was now unambiguously refuted.

Q1a2 has been there for a long time, since the beginning of the Neolithic, so they started mixing with WHG long ago.

the east Baltic area has long been recognised to have 2 components - eastern technocomplexes (pressure blades) and western . The western are linked to Ahresnburgians & Swiderians from northern Europe moving east , chasing reindeer. The issue is- even the western component does not look to be from western Europe, because it harbours I2a2, mtDNA U4, U5a2, etc; whilst northwestern Europe is mostly U5b1, I2a1b. The 'western' admixture therfore looks to be from east-Central Europe, or Ukraine even. its still tbd

Y26/M780/AM00483 R1a1a1b2a1~ C->T Found T : Y26 Positive

Y2 is negative. C->T is the most common deamination damage error... Therefore y26+ is a false positive, therefore no scientist has claimed this explosive discovery so far, only some internet geneticists have done so..

Ancient DNA Damage
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3685887/

"High-throughput sequencing of libraries constructed from ancient DNA has confirmed that C to T substitutions are greatly increased in number over other substitutions (Stiller et al. 2006; Gilbert et al. 2007). Moreover, it has been found that these substitutions are primarily localized to fragment ends where up to 40% of all cytosines appear as thymines, followed by an exponential decrease of such substitutions along the DNA molecule"

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S187249731830108X

"Cytosine deamination is observed in a characteristic pattern in ancient and degraded samples. While found at low levels across the length of a degraded DNA molecule, cytosine deamination is most prevalent on the outermost 10 bases of the ends of DNA fragments [[4], [16], [17]]. In fact, ancient DNA (aDNA) samples commonly show cytosine deamination at frequencies as high as 50% on the outermost few bases of DNA template (e.g., [16])."

@coldmountains
I do not understand how you can claim so much with no male ancient sample from India yet. The only R1a-Y3+ adna is from a pallan farmer like sample 850ad. Need at least 100+ male samples from all over india over various ancient periods for proper sampling..

Till then i will bet that you will not find your sample wherever you are looking for it.

Lol. As always, you ignored that they are Z93+ and Z94+, the rest is just your opinion that does not matter. The Z93 and Z94 came to India from Eastern Europe and no amount of your interpretation of the Y3 will change anything. The Aryans came to India from Eastern Europe, otherwise is impossible and two opinions do not exist here in nature.

Coldmountains said...

@vAsiSTha

Medieval or modern samples from India with R1a-L657+ are as much as relevant to the orign of R1a-L657 as I1 on the Mars at 2500 a.d. . We have Z94+ Z2124+ and even downstream Z2123+ from Potapovka and Poltavka_o around 2500 B.C and according to Yfull Z2124 formed during more or less the same time when Z94>Y3 and Z94>Y3>L657 formed so parallel Y3 and slightly younger L657 must orginate west of the Urals somewhere between Poland and the Urals probably even rather in Ukraine than in the Ural considering that Yfull often underestimates the ages and TMRCA of clades (netherless they do very great work). Like i mentioned before nowhere in Central Asia EBA, BMAC, South Asia or even Siberia are any signs of Z93+ before 2000-2200 B.C so more samples from these regions before the MLBA will not show anything interesting about Z93 or even Y3.

I want to draw your attention to the fact that this is not Poltavka culture at all, these are the Potapovka kurgans "Potapovka I, Sok River, Samara", there the neighboring burials from the same kurgan 5 belong to the Potapovka culture. Even this burial could belong to the Potapovka culture if not for the date. It is known for certain that it does not belong to the Poltavka culture, but there is no more accurate information.

There's a Maglemosean U5a2c (Hansen et al. 2017), and the uniparentals of the SHGs look very "eastern" for their autosomal profile, so it surely looks like the Ahrensburgians and spinoffs in Central and Northern Europe were uniparentally quite "eastern" already before the known Mesolithic mixing with EHGs started.

I would rather suggest that SHGs are eastern because of U5a2 (rather than “before” it. Not sure what you mean there)
That’s the only way to explain the EHG admixture in Scandinavia . Otherwise there’s no Yhg R1 or Q1, nor MtDNA C or R1b

"so it surely looks like the Ahrensburgians and spinoffs in Central and Northern Europe were uniparentally quite "eastern" already before the known Mesolithic mixing with EHGs started."

Most likely, all Eastern influence in Maglemose comes from the neighboring Komsa culture, which appeared nearby earlier.

R1A and R1B are certainly different populations. Firstly, R1b is mostly Steppe EBA or EMBA while R1A looks more like Steppe MLBA populations. So not only do they have different cultural backgrounds but also different ydna and different Autosomnal makeup.

The only problematic assumption here is that Steppe MLBA is a product of Steppe EBA (Yamnya/Afanasievo) with EEF or other Anatolian farmer DNA. We can see that this is not the case when look more closely at the samples. This PCA makes it clear.

https://ibb.co/KFH2NLh

The Steppe samples split into two clusters, one has Yamnaya Samara, Steppe_Maykop, Afanasievo, CW, Steppe Eneolithic, so these look like early Steppe (EN, EBA) mostly R1b peoples. This group is closer to ANE. The second group has Sarmatians, Andronovo, Srubnaya, Geoksur_C, Yamnya Bulgaria, Sintashta, Yamnaya Ozera and others. These look more like Steppe MLBA and indeed these are closer to Anatolian than the other Steppe samples.

However, the Steppe MLBA samples do not form a simple cline between Yamnya/Afanasievo and Anatolian Farmers (GAC) as they should if they were a mixture of the two. Instead there is much Y-axis variation in this second group, meaning there are other components there that are not coming from Steppe EMBA.

So I dont think R1A Steppe MLBA are descended from R1B Steppe EBA with additional farmer admixture.

I can see one nonsense here for sure, you are using populations for PCA taken on the average, which is a categorical error, since you cannot study clusters this way.

Coldmountains said...

@vAsiSTha

Where is Z93 in Siberia, Central Asia or the Altai before 2000 B.C?
The nitpicking is ridiculous already. Maybe you missed it but Indo-Iranians are not just Z94+ but also had plenty of basal Z93+ Z94-. For example Srubnaya, Turkmenistan_IA (50% steppe sample), Steppe_MLBA-like UZB_Kashkarchi_BA and several Saka samples were under basal Z93+ negative for Z94 and in some cases even negative for Z93 but still R1a . So actually Indo-Aryan Z94>Y3 is closer to Scytho-Turkic/Sintashta Z94+ clades than many Srubnaya, Turkmenistan_IA and other basal Z93+ Scythian clades are to Scytho-Turkic/Sintashta Z94+ clades.

Also the Fatyanovo samples are very early and older than Sintashta, Abashevo and most Z93 in the Volga-Ural region so of course you see mostly extinct R1a-M417 and R1a-Z93 lines but a subset of Fatyanovo-like lines which expanded early into the Middle Volga region will carry Y3, Y40 and Z2124 and be ancestral to most of modern day Z93.

Davidski said...

Your PCA is garbage and so are your theories.

Steppe_MLBA does sit on a cline between Steppe_EMBA and EEF/Europe_MN. All decent plots show this clearly, like the one here.

https://eurogenes.blogspot.com/2018/04/the-mystery-of-sintashta-people.html

You're always very confused.

In this case you're confused because your PCA is garbage and you probably don't know the difference between the main Sintashta cluster and the Sintashta outlier clusters.

Y26+ is a c>T deamination error false positive

Davidski said...

No one really cares, because...

Z93 is from Eastern Europe.

There is no Z93 in Asia from before the time when Steppe_MLBA moves into Asia and there never will be.

All Indian Z93 lines ultimately derive from Eastern Europe.

Haha.

@vAsiSTha

He was analyzed by several people and always found with Z95+ and Y26+ And even if both calls are errors Y3 and L657 are anyways from Abashevo/eastern Fatyanovo so it does not make really any difference. Please show Z93 before 2000 B.C/Steppe MlLBA in Central Asia

Will you shut your blog if a pre 2000bce R-Y3 it is found in India? or a lengthy apology? Im fine with both, 2nd is better though.

Neither Z93 nor Y3 are from India, so no one will give a shit anyway if they turn up there a few years before 2000 BCE.

Coldmountains said...

@vAsiSTha
lol kolgeh wrote about a Czech BA sample and not about I6561. I6561 is unlike the Czech sample Z93+ Z94+ and has a super Steppe_MLBA-like profile. Even Simargl on Molgen.ru (Y-DNA expert) wrote it is consistent and reliable.

We don't even see R1a-Z93 and Steppe_MLBA in any of the BMAC samples around 2000 B.C so R1a-Z93 arrived in India probably much after 2000 B.C and rather around 1700 B.C if not even slightly later.

Arne Solli said...

The "RUS_Volosovo_N" (BER001, "RUS_LyalovoVolosovo_N") individual is highly important because it is likely a Q-L804 (PH4027+,A13475+,A13494+,A13501+,[A13548+] ,L1291+). This makes the BER001 the first aDNA of Q-L804, and it fills the gap between the younger/recent Q-L804 in Scandinavia (<3500 yBP) and the Q-M3 (Native Americans, Anzick1, Kennewick-man). The Q-L804 (Scandinavia) / Q-M3 split is dated c 15000 yBP. The BER001 (RUS_LyalovoVolosovo_N) is dated c. 6400 yBP and it is likely on another branch of the Q-L804 than the current Scandinavian branch.

Vladimir said...

Even better would be if it was pre Z93, then everything would coincide with the new dates of 3400 BCE. But in general, I think it is now easy to determine whether this sample belongs to Y3 or to Z645. In the article about Fatyanovo, it is written that the impurity with EEF occurred in the period 3100-2900 BCE. If this sample has the same EEF impurity as Fatyanovo, then it is Y3 with the wrong dates, but if it has a much smaller EEF impurity than Fatyanovo, then it is Z645 and pre Z93 with the date 3900-3400 BCE.

Coldmountains said...

@Vladimir
something about the dating of I6561 is definetly weird and it shows as much as EEF as Fatyanovo but i am not sure if the shared CM segments really mean that the sample is from the MLBA period or even later (Srubnaya) but netherless Yfull underestimates the ages of clades by 10-15% often what we see again with the Fatyanovo samples which are dated around the time of the TMRCA of Z93 on Yfull (2500 B.C) but unlikely are ancestral to all Z93 in the world today and rather parallel/extinct lines which around 3500 diverged from other Z93. It would than take around 500 years for the Z93 clan to be big enough in numbers to be able to expand around 2800 B.C from Tver to the Volga region and maybe even Moldavia (if the Romania_EBA Z93 samples are correctly and not from a later period). Also keep in mind that early Indo-Iranians already had plenty of Z93 negative for Z94+ so even these westen Fatyanovo samples could have descendants in IA Central Asia/South Asia or even among modern day Indo-Iranians, which are poorly tested so far, even if most of Indo-Iranian Z93 is likely derived from more eastern Fatyanovo groups

Copper Axe said...

Everyone used to be so sure that I6561 was from the eneolithic due to its farmer ancestry being more Balkan/Trypilian like than from the later BA where GAC type ancestry was present.

What ever happened to that? The rejecting of the dates was just based on genetic similarity to later mlba individuals.

Anonymous said...

@Coldmountains

"so R1a-Z93 arrived in India probably much after 2000 B.C and rather around 1700 B.C if not even slightly later."

According to classical archeology, it should be around 1300BC or slightly early.

"something about the dating of I6561 is definetly weird"

In Alexandria, all the burials are so very strange in dating. Here is the neighboring burial 40, it has two carbon dates with a difference of a thousand years!

Burial 40
4815 ± 60BP, Кі-8300 3710 - 3370 cal BC ;
5555 ± 35BP, Poz-78001 4455 - 4344 cal BC ;
(95.4 %)

And it must be borne in mind that burial 4-8 is the latest of all those made there.

"what we see again with the Fatyanovo samples"

Fatyanovo dates are very strange, no one expected that they would be so ancient. Most likely, the last numbers of the ranges are correct there, perhaps they have an underestimated reservoir effect.

"numbers to be able to expand around 2800 B.C"

For Fatyanovo dates, the center of the ranges at 2500 BC are most likely correct.

Davidski said...

@Copper Axe

I'm guessing that it's based on more than that.

There are a bunch of Eneolithic samples from that area on the way and none of them resembles I6561.

Yes you mentioned those before, basically just Steppe_EMBA right?

But shouldn't we eventually find eneolithic samples resembling I6561 however, considering that steppe_emba has EEF admixture? That had to be mediated through people with mixed ancestries.

Archi was right about I6561 and we were all wrong. That's a first.

Eneolithic steppe but with elevated EHG.

old europe said...



well the overall picture won't change much. We have a western sredni stog area that graviteted more toward the west and eastern sredni stog that was more in contact and absorbed more purely steppe eneolithic folks from the Don Volga area and from the northern foothills of the caucasus. We have eneolithic sample from eneolithic ukraine that have more EEF than I6561.
It is not a revolution.

Copper Axe said...

@Davidski

Dope. So more or less steppe_emba minus the EEF then? As in the right amount of EHG to CHG ancestry as we see in Yamnaya and CWC? Assuming that with eneolithic steppe you mean the Progress and Vonyuchka profiles.

Anonymous said...

@Copper Axe
"But shouldn't we eventually find eneolithic samples resembling I6561 however, considering that steppe_emba has EEF admixture?"

The Eneolithic can not be there, since according to the IBD segments between 6 samples from Srubnaya/Alakul/Andronovo (from 1900BC), the Alexandrian sample is 8-10 generations apart, that is, he lived 200-300 years earlier, that is, approximately at 2200-2100BC.

Anthropologists also always wrote that very different people are buried in Alexandria, at least split into two clusters, and probably even more. Their comprehensive characterization is very strange and contradictory.

Certain proponents, the usual suspects think that this Volosovo paper will confirm their theory of the Western European origin of R1b. They assert that the Volosovo results will reveal that all Russian R1b are clearly WHGS without steppe ancestry. What do you think folks?

Something like Corded_Ware_POL_Early but without EEF? Would that make Yamnaya a mix of Early Steppe and Progress, with Yamnaya Caucasus being mostly Progress-derived?

You mean EHGs correct? The Volosovites may have elevated WHG related ancestry compared to their Mesolithic predecessors, but calling them WHGs is quite inaccurate. And is it not so that R1b itself originates from EHG, unless you're talking about some Narva related clades dominating Volosovo?

@Coldmountains

Understand, when Abashevo and Sintashta culture existed, no Poltava culture existed anymore, Volsk-Lbische culture destroyed it. Your map is an anachronism, in the place of Poltavka already existed Babino, Lola, Voronezh, Krivoluk, Potapovka cultures.

I constantly see some completely crooked style of periodization of Eastern European archeology in European and American genetic sources, from where I cannot understand its source at all, but in the Eastern European archeology of the Steppe, the following Steppe-Anatolian scale of cultures of the Eneolithic-Bronze Age was adopted, and another there not.

period ~ cultures
EEn - Sredniy Stog, Khvalynsk
MEn - Dereivka
MLEn - Konstantinovka
LEn - Repin, Pivicha
EBA - Yamnaya
MBA - Catacomb, Poltavka, Volsk-Lbishche
MLBA - Babino, Abashevo, Sintashta, Petrovka, Potapovka, Lola, Voronezh, Krivoluk
LBA - Andronovo (Alakul / Fedorovo), Srubnaya
FBA (/ EIA) - Andronovo (Alexeevo), Roller pottery, Sabatinovka

Moreover, most archaeologists equate ML with L.

R1b P297 is a EHG lineage. It is not born in the steppe. It traces back its origin in a Yana/ANE related populations.
We will see if in Narva/ Kunda and later on in the Samara hunter gather its proximate origin is from the Afontonova Gora population or from a source like the Swiderian culture in Poland or Iron Gates.

Results Haplogroup composition of the commoner population markedly differs from the elite and in contrast to the elite, commoners cluster with European populations. Besides, detectable sub-haplogroup sharing indicates admixture between the elite and commoners.

Conclusions Majority of the 10-11th century commoners most likely represent local populations of the Carpathian Basin, which admixed with the eastern immigrant groups including conquering Hungarians.

YFull's age estimates may be off by even more than 15% in some cases.

One recent case I have considered is that of XW-M1R18, a specimen recovered from the Xiaowu site in Xiaowu village, Lingbao city, Henan province, China and attributed to the early Yangshao culture.

Chao Ning et al. 2020 have reported an AMS radiocarbon date of 4225-3987 calBCE (6056±119 BP) for the XW-M1R18 specimen. They also have reported that the specimen's mtDNA belongs to haplogroup D4g2a1 and that the specimen's Y-DNA belongs to haplogroup Q1a1a1.

On the current version of the YFull tree, XW-M1R18 has been tabulated as belonging to Q-M120 > Q-Y515 > Q-FGC14753 > Q-Y144860 > Q-Y144860*. However, the TMRCA of Q-Y144860 has been estimated to be 4,300 (95% CI 3,900 <-> 4,800) ybp. (In fact, the TMRCA of Q-Y515, two levels up in the tree, likewise has been estimated to be 4,300 (95% CI 3,900 <-> 4,800) ybp.)

Taking the lower bound of the confidence interval for the radiocarbon date of the XW-M1R18 specimen (5,937 ybp) and the upper bound of YFull's 95% CI for its estimate of the TMRCA of Q-Y144860 (4,800 ybp), one may conclude that the real TMRCA of the Q-Y144860 clade must be at least 123% (or 1.23 times) YFull's current estimate (assuming, of course, that YFull's phylogeny and its assignment of XW-M1R18's Y-DNA to the Q-Y144860 clade are correct).

(By the way, on YFull's mtDNA tree, there is no such discrepancy for this particular specimen: XW-M1R18's mtDNA has been tabulated as D4g2a1*, with the TMRCA of the D4g2a1 clade estimated to be 8,600 (95% CI 6,700 <-> 10,900) ybp. However, this does not necessarily mean that YFull's estimate of the TMRCA of the D4g2a1 clade of mtDNA is not also an underestimate.)

ambron said...

Arza, there are already genomes from O'Sullivan's paper. Have you seen? The most Slavic one on the PCA has Avar's maternal great-grandfather (Lukas's model):

Target: Germany_EarlyMedieval_Alemanic_lc_NIEcap2
Distance: 9.0323% / 9.03233006 | ADC: 0.5x RC
47.9 Ukrainian_Ivano_Frankivsk
31.0 Polish_Masuria
13.7 Belarusian_Minsk
7.4 Dai

It would be worth removing the Far East admixture and checking where the Slavic component will be located in the North European PCA. In this way we will locate the early Slav with U106, if I am not confusing something in the symbols of the R1b haplogroup.

Davidski said...

The lc suffix stands for low coverage. And when they say low coverage, they really meany it.

So I wouldn't take that model seriously at all.

ambron said...

David, do you think the coverage is lower than RISE568? This sample seems interesting to me because we have a Slavic U106 without an autosomal Germanic admixture.

epoch said...

@Coldmountains

But the sample also was booked as "questionable". The point is, if the new date is correct and it's Y-DNA asssignment is still R1a we have R1a just before Yamnaya in Yamnaya territory.

So I wonder if this sample is somehow suspected to be contaminated.

Snps number and what "questionable" means can be checked in the anno file:

https://reich.hms.harvard.edu/allen-ancient-dna-resource-aadr-downloadable-genotypes-present-day-and-ancient-dna-data

NIEcap2 possibly has Slavic origin but that's all what can be said about this sample.

And I6561 cannot predate Yamnaya if it's dated to 1900-1400 BCE.

Anonymous said...

@Ebizur

It is not necessary to absolutize radiocarbon dating, they are very complex and inaccurate, depend on a huge number of factors (reservoir effects, contaminations, etc.). AMC dating tends, for example, to give outliers towards the aging of samples. The problem is that a certain percentage of them are always wrong, some laboratories have less, others have more.

In YFull it is necessary to look not only TMRCA, but also "formed" because it is not at all necessary that a given sample left descendants at all, it can enter the population of people who lived before the person whose descendants are on the YFull tree.

Coldmountains said...

@epoch

based on the new info it is rather from Abashevo or some kind of other Fatyanovoid culture around 2000-2500 B.C. Also his R1a-Y26+ clade is so rare among modern Europeans bascially has a frequency of around 0,0001% if not even lower that it pretty much unlikely is that he got his Y-DNA from contamination rather some kind of other error like deamination but this neither can proven or disproven so far.

@ambron&Arza

Interesting that you Polish users are still trying to analyze these Alamannic samples from Niederstotzingen, without telling me. I've been waiting for half a year or so for Tomenable to convert them into something usable, but he didn't.

I suppose NIEcap2 is the easternmost ancient individual in the paper's PCA plot. Seems to plot rather with Northeast Euros than with Northwest Euros, though some modern Germans (probably Eastern Germans) plot nearby.

The question is, if this individual had actual Slavic drift, or if its position in the PCA just reflects higher Steppe and lower MN farmer ancestry. Niederstotzingen lies outside of the area settled by Medieval Slavs. On the other hand it would make sense if the Alamanni were a bit more northern and eastern than the Baiuvari, because the latter were mostly descended from Marcomanni who had migrated to Bohemia coming from the river Main, while the former were mostly descended from the Semnones on the Elbe.

What data did you feed into that Vahaduo calculator? Eurogenes K13, K15 or what?

vAsiSTha said...

So, you would tell us that the Z93 in Fatyanovo came from Asia? Is that what you'd say?

No. What I am saying is that the south asian R-Y3(z93>z94>Y3) line did not come from the steppe post 2000bce.. this is because you neither see Y3 in ancient dna from a huge number of samples, neither do you see it in modern samples from the steppe region even though the purported tmrca is 2500bc (likely an underestimation).

Additionally, modern south asia has lots of samples with upstream terminal markers present starting with R1*, R1a, R1a1 and so on which are absent in the steppe mlba ancient samples (Choubey, unpublished as of yet)..

So, while some Z93 Z94 Z2124 In NW india and pakistan likely came from steppe, the bulk of the R1a which is on the R-Y3 line has nothing to do with the steppe.

How can this happen?? Old connections much before bronze age. You have an example in J1 J2 branches from Iran Central Asia region randomly appearing in khavalynsk,EHG, LBK samples.

"So EEF and R1a in I6561 might not be very strange. It might be a very interesting sample if the quality could still be considered usable."

Sample I6561 was declared: "QUESTIONABLE (damage.ds.half=0.028)". And they explain in ".anno file" that "half" means a damage retained at last position", "ds" is a double stranded library preparation, and damage for ds.half is "QUESTIONABLE_CRITICAL/FAIL" if the rating is <0.01, "QUESTIONABLE" for 0.01-0.03, and recorded but passed if 0.03-0.05.

So we can see that I6561 is in the middle of the damage rating.

In my modest text I show that only Balto-Slavic and Indo-Iranian have full set of the wheel and wain terms. Adding to this the DNA proofs and the Bronocice evidence I think that the "out of India" theory is impossible. Z93 has its origins in Eastern Europe, as Davidski says

http://tolkniety.blogspot.com/2020/04/updating-picture-from-anthony-indo.html

mzp1 said...

@Gabriel,

My theory is just that Steppe MLBA is not a descendant of Steppe EBA and European farmers. Bell Beakers DNA would originate wherever Sintashta did, if they are genetically close, but I dont have a particular view on that yet.

The mainstream theory is problematic due to the ratio of Steppe and Farmer ancestry being so consistent across the whole of the Steppe MLBA populations, from Bell Beaker to Andronovo. That is the real coincidence, and is highly unlikely as recently mixed populations should have more varying ancestry proportions. Also, the existing model does not explain the differences in R1A and R1B and also the distribution of light skin/hair alleles that is not explained by descent from Steppe EBA or EEF (from discussions here).

The idea that wheeled vehicles originated on the steppe is long abandoned, they came from the farmers.

See this quote from a paper Kristiansen co-authored:

The spread of farming practices across western Eurasia was followed by a period of demographic expansion (Hinz et al., 2012, Müller, 2013, Shennan et al., 2013) and technological innovations (e.g., pottery, animal traction, the wheel, metallurgy, etc.). These events favored the initiation of trading networks, which, for the first time, could reach remote geographic regions and connect multiple independent human populations. Population densities and settlements also increased in size with the emergence of the first mega-settlements (6,100–5,400 BP) in the current territory of Moldova, Romania, and Ukraine.

"The idea that wheeled vehicles originated on the steppe is long abandoned, they came from the farmers."

This is an absolute lie, wheeled transport originated in the steppe, this is a proven scientific fact, but any connection with farmers is categorically long rejected. In your quote, nothing is written to support your words.

“In my modest text I show that only Balto-Slavic and Indo-Iranian have full set of the wheel and wain terms. Adding to this the DNA proofs and the Bronocice evidence I think that the "out of India" theory is impossible. Z93 has its origins in Eastern Europe, as Davidski says

http://tolkniety.blogspot.com/2020/04/updating-picture-from-anthony-indo.html”

I agree with you.

Some time ago I wrote a post about PIE “ingridients” which mentioned Bronocice:

“The requirement that PIE homeland be located on “a plain near the highest mountains” which David Anthony reminded us about, is an important ingredient.
In practice it probably means that those highest mountains should be visible from PIE homeland or from some important religious center of this homeland.
Here we are: Tatri/Patri or “Father” the highest mountain range in Carpatian mountains is visible from Cracow:

That R1a rich CWC area around Cracow is very interesting. There the Bronocice pot was discovered, a ceramic vase incised with one of the earliest known depictions of a wheeled vehicle. It was dated by the radiocarbon method to the mid-fourth millennium BC.
TRB culture to which Bronocice pot is attributed was also using Corded ceramics so it probably had some early contacts with Dereivka Sredny Stog culture”


Another ingredient can be the wheel and wagon vocabulary. Full and complete in Slavic languages.
Reconstructable form: PIE *kwékwlo-s (masc.), collective *kwekwlé-h2 (→ neut. pl.) derived from *kwel- ‘turn’; pattern of derivation (reduplication + zero-grade root + thematic vowel).
This very complex derivation is not convincing at all.
Reduplication in nouns is very rare. This whole construction is artificial.
There is a much simpler derivation:
Slavic: ‘koÅ‚-/kol-’”turn”‘koÅ‚o/kolo’ “circle, wheel”––> diminutive “kol-ko”pl. „kul-ka”which are used for wheels in wagons even today. Diminutive endings ‘-ko/-ka’ in Slavic are the same as in Sanskrit. Then metathesis: sing. ‘kolko’––> ‘koklo’, pl ‘kulka’––> ‘kukla’
This metathesis is a very common mistake children make, so it is natural.
CWC mixing with TRB in Poland were the first steppe people who got hold of wheels and wagons. Surely their vocabulary was the oldest. It happened in South-Eastern or Central Poland, Slavic homeland.
Is my theory better than Anthony-Ringe’s theory? They cannot explain where, when and how words for wheel and wagon originated and their derivation is not convincing and artificial. I can explain how it happened, my derivation is simple and natural.

That's an issue with your 3rd grade reading comprehension not with what I wrote. Wheeled transport is synonymous with the rest of the neolithic package. Early technoligical innovation correlates directly with population density and we know this for a fact as before we had population density none of the package existed. Things don't just magically appear out of nowhere to support the steppe hypothesis. Cause and effect is law.

This is lie, do not invent nonsense and lies. Learn to read and don't lie if you haven't finished elementary school. Romulus Rob, you have never written anything but lies here.

The wheel was never included in the concept of the Neolithic, it could not have appeared even before the Eneolithic, because metal tools are needed to make it.

Moreover, even pottery is not included in the concept of the farm Neolithic, because there were farmers before the pottery era (Per-Pottery N), pottery were invented and distributed by hunter-gatherers (from east), and farmers borrowed it only from them. Not to mention metallurgy, which is also in that quote from which you claim that it is included in the concept of the Neolithic package. Study uneducated.

It just seems like you're trotting out a bunch of knitt-picky(and ultimately irrelevant) stuff in a desperate last ditch attempt to prop up the OIT(or something more compatible with it, at least). You'll probably say that you're not an OIT supporter, but it's obvious to everyone that you're trying to put off accepting the reality of indo-Iranian origins at any cost, you just can't handle the idea of Z93(and so many Indian, Pakistani, and Iranian paternal lineages) coming from eastern Europe.
So you're trying to come up with an idea as close to the OIT as possible. Reminds me of how modern creationists never stop trying to come up with something, anything to avoid accepting the inevitable, and it just gets more and more tedious as they try to keep their foot in the door. It's pretty cringy to watch, I'm not gonna lie. The rest of us are so far past this, it's not even funny.

"So, they're descendants of...who, then?"

We dont know. Who says they need to be descended from different groups? If you imagine that Steppe MLBA lived somewhere bordered on one side by Yamnya/EHG/ANE and on the other side with Anatolia, then over time the Yamnaya/ANE side drifts in its own direction, and Antolian drift their own way. Steppe MLBA is in the middle and shares drift with both of them so it has both components but this does not neccessarily mean the two groups mixed to produce Steppe MLBA as a third.

About how close is Sintashta and BB I didnt answer because I havent looked at BB closely, hence my vague response.

(Russia_MLBA_Sintashta, Russia_EBA_Yamnaya_Samara) (Poland_GAC, Anatolian_N) 0.002 0.00213 0.92 22861 22771 522344
(Russia_Andronovo, Russia_EBA_Yamnaya_Samara) (Poland_GAC, Anatolian_N) 0.005 0.00296 1.68 22836 22610 522729
(Germany_BellBeaker, Russia_EBA_Yamnaya_EBA_Samara) (Poland_GAC, Anatolian_N) -0.002 0.00219 -0.895 23012 23103 522201

The above Steppe MLBA samples barely pick GAC over Anatolian_N when given Yamnaya as an input. Pretty weak Z-scores for the first two and the negative result for the last row really opposes the theory that BB is a mixture of Yamnaya with GAC.

If they are descended from Yamnaya and GAC or EEF those scores need to be strongly positive, the first two are below 3 and the last (BB) is not even positive.

How about Dasa, that name seems more widespread than Arya. They seem to be in India with the Aryans, and they seem to be in Europe (Dacians) where there is no mention of Aryans.

Maybe the "high-born" Dasa are the real OGs, and the Aryans some Iranian/West Asian Neolithic influenced new, innovated, IE culture.

Here are the dates known to me from the eastern part of the Steppe, and these are scientifically published data about which you do not want to know like that liar from Wikiped

Balki, g.57 3170+-120 calBC
Starokorsunskaya 6 burial 3336-3105 calBCE

This is from the steppe burials, because by that time everyone in the steppe already owned wagons and they were of no value, unlike in other Europe, there is no swamps in the steppe for a wagon to drown there and there is no art on pottery to draw unprecedented wonders such as a carriage, pottery in the steppe was not appreciated.


@mzp1

What else instead of? Aryans are the same as Indo-Iranians.

"How about Dasa, that name seems more widespread than Arya. They seem to be in India with the Aryans, and they seem to be in Europe (Dacians) where there is no mention of Aryans."

Dasa has no relation to the Dacians. These are completely different words, not related. Dasa literally means "exhausted", that is, immovable, sedentary, not nomads. Hence any slaves or enemies of the Indo-Aryans.

The Lubjana Marshes Wheel predates the Steppe Migration by 180-350 years. That's if you set the beginning at 2900 B.C., when it is more like 2900-2800 B.C.. GAC groups appeared in the Forest Steppe before the Corded Ware migration began.

The rest of us have known for several years that Sintashta and Bell Beaker are closely related, almost identical in some cases.

mzp1 said...

@Bob,

If Sintashta and Bell Beaker are close then according to this theory they originate close to each other, but that does not mean they are descended from Yamnaya and EEF.

We can look at it in different ways, but all the data point to the same conclusion.

f3
Russia_Andronovo.SG, Russia_Kostenki14, Chimp.REF 203. 0.849 239. 290925
Russia_EBA_Yamnaya_Samara, Russia_Kostenki14 Chimp.REF 202. 0.832 243. 315509
Poland_GAC.SG, Russia_Kostenki14 Chimp.REF 202. 0.945 214. 215163

You can see that Andronovo has a greater f3 with Kostenki than do Yamnaya Samara or GAC. Correct me if Im wrong but surely that cant be the case if it is a descendant of those two populations.

and with Karelia HG,

Russia_Andronovo.SG, Russia_HG_Karelia Chimp.R… 213. 0.848 251. 271470
Russia_EBA_Yamnaya_Samara Russia_HG_Karelia Chimp.R… 213. 0.835 255. 294943
Poland_GAC.SG, Russia_HG_Karelia Chimp.R… 208. 0.932 223. 202756

Here GAC has a significantly lower f3 than the other two which are the same ,around 213. According to your theory, the Andronovo f3 should be between that of the other two, no?

Anyone know about f3 and admixture can chime in on the above.

In any case; this is the latest thesis from Europe

“ The paper uses a new research tool, the Digital Atlas of Innovation to re-think the invention and diffusion of wheeled vehicles in Eurasia during the 4th and 3rd millennium BC. It isargued that the diffusion of wheeled vehicles is the result of the local transformation of several technical components which have been known since the Pottery Neolithic”. (F Klimscha 2017)

Something to consider is their Asian mtDNA is Siberian. So, even their mtDNA suggests they weren't indigenous to Western China.

It is mostly C4 with some D4 and G2a. Those are the three most common mHGs in Siberia in that order.

This makes me think they were an Andronovo population from Siberia who migrated to Tarim Basin.

For a long time, many archaeologists generally assumed that the culture of Baden was formed simply by the steppe people. The CWC were not distributors of carts, carriages as all technical innovation spread as a result of minor influences, this is how they penetrated the Middle East without any CWC or Yamnians migrations. Secondly, the time of the CWC migration has not been established at all, no one knows the beginning of the CWC migration, because the earliest phase of the CWC has not been found at all, for archaeologists at distances of a thousand kilometers it seems to appear instantly literally in one year.

Rob, stop lying, you only write useless lies 100% of the time without exception. You have not written a single message that does not contain 100% lies.

In the Steppe of Yamnaya time, they buried with the most valuable thing a person had, no ritual things existed. The clan to which a person belongs was considered the most valuable, therefore, they were buried under the patrimonial mounds mainly without equipment. Aliens were buried with the things that were during their lifetime, in Yamnaya culture the wagon was not any sign of the elite, the poorest practically beggars of society, practically women and children, were buried with them, these are the poorest burials of all. These are strangers who died in a foreign land, they were not buried under the mounds, and the wagon is their only property.

2.Baltic CCR5 mutation
Delta 32 mutation in the CCR5 gene (inactivation) makes HIV unable to enter the cell. This mutation is absent among the African and southern European populations decimated by AIDS, but it is quite common in northern Europe, in the Baltic area. Poland is one of the few countries in the world with the highest percentage of the population genetically resistant to AIDS (approx. 11%, in some parts of the country even 14%).

It is all very complex and confusing. I did a lot of comparative studies on IE influences in early Rigveda, in Orphico-Pythagorean and Slavic religions. By IE influences I mean what is common in them and probably from the same early source.

There are such common elements and there was a common early source but what is important that early source religion was not primitive at all. I don’t think it came from männerbünde or jungmannschaf wolf-skin cloaks wearing steppe proto-Celto-Germanic warriors of David Anthony.

Maybe it was from Vinca, as Alinei thinks, or Tripolye or LBK/TRB? I don’t know. Looks like advanced peaceful civilization.

Continuité génétique des populations anciennes et récentes d’Asie Centrale
Genetic continuity between ancient and recent populations in Central Asia

Since prehistoric times, South Central Asia has been a region at the crossroads of movements of people, cultures and goods. Today Central Asia is populated by populations divided into two cultural and linguistic groups: the Indo-Iranian group and the Turco-Mongolian group.

The establishment of a genetic database on these populations made it possible to study their genetic structure by highlighting the migration of populations from East Asia at the origin of the diffusion of Turkish languages. -Mongoles and the partial replacement of the Indo-Iranian populations. Little is known about the origin of the latter. To clarify it, we compare genetic data on current populations obtained in our laboratory with the growing number of published ancient genomes.

Using PCRs, F3 statistics and D-statistics, we have shown that the Central Asian populations of the Indo-Iranian group show strong genetic continuity with the Iron Age samples from Turkmenistan. nistan and Tajikistan. We model, with qpAdm, these populations as resulting from a crossbreeding of 93% of individuals of the Iron Age of Turkmenistan and of 7% of individuals of East Asia.

But where do these Iron Age populations come from? The study of the Iron Age samples from Central Asia, reveals that contrary to what has been suggested by archaeological data, the steppe populations which migrated and interbreeded in the Oxus civilization are genetically closer to the western steppes (eg Srubnaya) than to the central steppes (eg Andronovo). Despite strong cultural influence from Achaemenid Persia, no Iranian gene flow in Iron Age individuals is observed. Our results therefore suggest that the history of Central Asia and its population is complex but shows remarkable continuity since the Iron Age.

@J.S.

https://i.ibb.co/6nqSrNh/Kuzmina-2008.png

It is now finally clear that Kuzmina was right.
Indo-Aryans come from the Fedorovo and Alekseevo types of the Andronovo culture.
Northern Iranians (Scythians) come from the Fedorovo type of the Andronovo culture and the Karasuk culture derived from Andronovo.
Southern Iranians come from the Alakul and Srubno-Alakul types of the Andronovo culture.


Indo-Aryans were those who left Central Asia before 1000BC, those who remained were Iranians, they began to settle from Central Asia after 1000BC.

The reason for this was explained by Zarathushtra. In the steppe there was a permanent war for resources, this war was fiercely hated by Zarathushtra. The reason for it was understandable, it was economic, the only way to get rich in the steppe was to steal cattle, but it was pure robbery, which naturally was a morally condemned matter, and in order to justify it, a religious split occurred in the steppe. In the religion of the Indo-European there were ancient gods (gods of the cloudy sky and night) and young gods (of the bright sky and day), who were called Asuras / Ahura and Devas / Daevas for the Indo-Aryans / Iranians, respectively. The Iranians sided with the Ahuras who won in Central Asia, and the Indo-Aryans sided with Devas, but without fanaticism. Zarathushtra hated this confrontation so much that he called the ancient religion evil and invented a new religion based on BMAC.

This path, and for the same economic reasons of an eternal plundering war, will be followed by the Turks.

@ East Pole

There is little point in critiquing old narratives , e.g. of Gimbutas, because they were framed within the climate of their time. But current scholars who maintain old errors are fair game. The key link is hunter-gatherers which connected the old Neolithic world , adapted key elements whilst maintaining their own identity (& language). When the old system collapsed (seems like a large-scale catasgtrophe effecting from anatolia to parts of Europe ~ 4200 BC), the adapted hunter-gatherer systems and post-Neolithic frontier societies filled the gap. They re-vitalised the region, not destroyed it.

@ Archie

There is no need to continually advertise your ignorance.
Usatavo is a pit-grave culture in the grass/ steppe lands in the NW Black Sea
Cotofeni buried their dead in caves and flat cemeteries in Transylvania & northern Serbia, sometimes dismembered parts. Only in the final stages did it have tumuli, and then it was on flat ground (no pit), under the influence of GAC. Its material culture links to baden, Kostolac. Its genome will be like Baden, Kostolac.

Lol do you know that Kuzmina believed Swat people to be Indo aryans? Now you can conveniently change your beliefs after the aDna is out showing female mediation of steppe ancestry and almost missing R1a.

Quote from Origin of Indo aryans, pg 313

" E. E. Kuz’mina (1972; 1974; 1975) sought parallels to the Swat materials in Tulkhar and suggested that these peoples were Indo-Aryans, as it had been previously stated by A. M. Mandel’shtam (1968) who had compared the burial rites of the cemetery of Tulkhar with the data from the Vedic funeral rituals. "

Kuzmina has been wrong many a times. example this from pg 268

"The Andronovo provenance of the fire-cult and the cremation rite is beyond
dispute. Bustan’s type of fires and crematoria goes back to the cult constructions discovered in the Fedorovo-type cemetery of Kinzerskiy in the southern Urals"

Too bad there was zilch steppe ancestry in Bustan aDna from the same site.

@fvAsiSTha
Lol

Ñ€sychic liar, do not lie . Kuzmina never considered everyone in Swat to be Indo-Aryans, she always wrote about the complex nature of Swat. She always wrote that Indo-Aryans are only those that were cremated, and the rest are not Indo-Aryans. Exactly everything is accurate, in Swat the Vedic rite of cremation.

Stop lying liar you are disgusting. You are not adequate. Kuzmina wrote about Swat in passing only a few times in her life, finding exactly the parallels there, but never claimed that Swat was completely Indo-Aryans, here is actually her longest last (1994) text about Swat (one sentence):

"The progress of pastoral tribes to the south - to northwestern Hindustan-
is recorded by the materials of the Gomal and Swat burial grounds, the culture
of which reflects the interaction of the Bishkek and Andronovo components [Mandelstam, 1968; Litvinsky, 1981; Pyankova, 19826; Kuzmina, 1972a; 19726; 1975b].

The skulls from the Timargarh burial ground are a northern archaic rough massive type that has no analogies in the Indo-Trans-Asian region, close to the type of Tajikistan of the second millennium BC and the type of the Saks of the Pamirs [Bernhard, 1967, p. 376].
The similarity to the Timargarh skulls of the Tigrovaya Balka burial ground notes and T. P. Kiyatkina [1976, p. 23-25], bringing the latter closer to the Srubnaya and
Tazabagyab ones, but also emphasizing their difference (the great narrowness of the Tajik ones)"

Due to the immense confusion of Swat in her books, it does not play any kind and is almost never mentioned.

The Andronovo origin of the cult of fire and cremation was proved and Kuzmina was right, and Bustan simply borrowed them from the steppe inhabitants of Andronovo. So you can break off.

Lol.

Do not freak out, you absolutely do not know what Kuzmina wrote and what she claimed. Here's what she wrote in 1972:
"J. Stakul allocated three consecutive chronological groups in the Swat's burials. In the first period, cremation prevails, there are rated solitary burials; Ceramics made by hand and has red and gray surface. The II period is characterized by the predominance of rates (sometimes paired) corpses, ceramics made on a circle and has a gray surface of the surface. In the III period, all burials are committed on the burial rite, ceramics made on a pottery circle and has Red surface. Iron things have found in the graves. These findings of iron are important for determining the age of burials. Terminus Antequem for Swat's burial grounds is the Buddhist period, since Buddhist materials overlap the area of ​​the Butcker's II burial ground."

"Among the ceramics of the Swat burial grounds, a number of forms (and not imported ceremonial ones, but domestic ones) find complete analogies in the ceramics of the Tulkhar burial ground.
Especially significant similarity with Talgar complex forms lanai ceramic burial Kherai J. Stacul which considers the earliest, synchronous IV period settlement Khalighi.
Thus, all the leading types of ceramics are represented in the south of Central Asia in Swat.
Metal products of the Swat also find some analogies in the south of Central Asia: leaf-shaped and with parallel blades of the petiole there are also knives-spears similar to the Tulkhar and Namazga chens analogs to beads, the spatula-shaped pins are similar to those of Tulkhar, Zamanbaba, and Namazga;
Finally, the flat schematic female statuettes of the Matchmaker resemble a statuette from the Zaman Baba burial ground. Special attention deserves a comparative analysis of the burial rite of the burial of Swat and South of Tajikistan, as it seems to us that the funeral rite, does not depend directly on production activities of the team, the most conservative and therefore, it is able to persist for a long time even in conditions of migration. Neither the construction of the catacombs and undercuts or cremation for crops Iran II-the beginning of I thousand BC are not typical. On the contrary, in Tajikistan, the design of the burial chambers of the Swat finds complete analogies in the Tulkhar burial ground, where A. M. Mandelstam distinguishes the same three types as in the Swat: a pit with a recess, a pit with a descent, a catacomb with a dromos. In both areas, stone is widely used in the construction of graves, which is used to construct the surface markings, the overlap of the pits, boxes. Burial grounds are biritual, there are paired and triple burials.
Practiced the ritual burial of animals: in Tulkhar found the bones of sheep, in Katilai sheep and horses.
Thus, between the burial grounds of the Bishkent culture of Tajikistan and the burial grounds of Swat, there is a coincidence of most of the cultural determining factors: the shapes of vessels, ornaments and details of the funeral rite. The set of features of the burial grounds of two groups gives us reason to raise the question of their cultural affinity and it allows a new approach to the problem of the origin and ethnicity of media culture burial grounds Swat."

"Kinship of burial grounds Swat and Bishkent allows you to see in the carriers of the Swat culture of ancient Indians who came to Hindustan through Central Asia. This
conclusion, obtained on the basis of archaeological materials, is consistent
with the data of linguists, suggesting a move through the Central Asia of several waves of Indo-Aryan tribes."

In Swat
ancient Indians = inhumation = the Bishkent culture = Dasa or Shudra
Vedic Indo-Aryan = cremation = the Andronovo culture
Buddhist period = inhumation

I dont think you understand how scientific evidence works, and is quite clear from the spewed nonsense you frequently display here.

Theory - Bustan culture is from andronovo.
Evidence: New aDna data shows no steppe_mlba ancestry in Bustan. aDna profile at Bustan is same as that of BMAC. ie. complete genetic continuity.

Conclusion - original theory of Andronovo provenance is proved false and extremely weak.

There is inhumation AS WELL as cremation urns burials in THE SAME GRAVE. So the bullshit about cremated = aryan, buried = slave is dogshit.

If we follow Kuzmina that the population of the Swat valley with inhumation burials, which were Dasa and Shudras, comes from the Bishkent culture of South Tajikistan, then the contradiction between the time of their steppe component appearance of 1700-1500BC by IBD segments at Narasimhan and the time of appearance of Indo-Aryans in Swat after 1300BC is removed.

Stop lying. Nobody ever wrote that Bustan is from Andronovo. There has never been such a theory. All only asserted that in late Bustan (after the tested samples) there is a cultural influence of the Andronovo steppe inhabitants who lived near it. You are a disgusting freak who always lies in disgustingly unscientific lies and also lies about other people because you lack the brains and honesty to admit that you are a liar.

Prehistoric this is the pre-Buddhist time. In Kuzmina's text it is written that the inhumation "writhed solitary burials" are present from the very beginning of stage I. J. Stakul wrote it until 1972. Since then, nothing has changed, only the intervals and frequencies have been clarified.

"In Swat
ancient Indians = inhumation = the Bishkent culture = Dasa or Shudra
Vedic Indo-Aryan = cremation = the Andronovo culture
Buddhist period = inhumation"

I know you can't read but this is even more retarded than your claim of the Uzboy drying 1500BCE and Novosvobodnaya being from the steppe even though it's entirely J2.

Here's what Kuzmina says about Bishkent:

"A. M. Mandel’shtam (1968: 131-141) conducted a systematic analysis of the funeral practice of the Bishkent (Vakhsh) culture and demonstrated specific correspondences with Indo-Aryan practices. He viewed the Bishkent culture as cattle raising,
coming from the north-west in transit to India, and he noted its similarity to the
Andronovo culture. B. A. Litvinsky (1964: 158; 1967: 122-126) connected this
culture with the Nuristani languages and showed its analogies in Swat. E. E.
Kuz’mina (1972 a: 134-143; 1972b: 116-121; 1974: 188-193; 1975: 64-7) emphasized the Indo-Iranian attribution of the culture, its connection with Swat and
Gomal and the participation of the Zamanbaba and Andronovo components in its
formation" & "These characteristic features are found in a number of steppe cultures in the
2nd millenium BC. A. M. Mandel’shtam demonstrated some specific convergences between the Bishkent culture and the Indo-Aryan one and he showed their
connection with Andronovo rituals. Among a number of specific Indo-Aryan–
Andronovo correspondences are: the construction of a round or rectangular
enclosure, a frame-work inside the grave of stone or wood, the dead laying head
to the west with face to the south towards the kingdom of the dead, and, what is
more important, cremation (Gonda 1962; Tiwari 1979). The convergence of
Indo-Aryan ritual with Andronovo and especially with Fedorovo bears a systemic character and speaks not for just individual traits but a whole constellation
of characteristics. Thus, the analysis of the burial rite of representatives of some
of the archaeological cultures of the Eurasian steppes confirms the hypothesis of
an Indo-Iranian homeland in this zone. The specific complex of correspondences
between the Bishkent and Andronovo, especially Fedorovo, ritual with IndoAryan hints at the possible connection of these groups of the Indo-Iranian
continuum with the Indo-Aryans."

"Of decisive importance is the evidence concerning the burial rite. The early
monuments of the Bishkent culture maintain the characteristic features of the
Andronovo Fedorovo burial tradition: burial mound, enclosure, stone cist,
cremation, swastika, and the hand-made ceramics. "


Kuz'mina's entire theory is that the Swat Indo-Aryans came from Bishkent.

According to supernord, Indo-Aryans did some DNA tests to make sure they were cremating all the R1a dudes LOL. Sorry, but we have to look at J2 for the genesis of Indo-Iranians.

Vary from being like HUN_Mako_EBA to samples to samples that fit better on European cline.

If you pick the more "Northern" (PCA wise) SRB_Mokrin sample subset (MOK22, MOK23, MOK21A, MOK28A, MOK19A, MOK30), who are HUN_Mako_EBA like, then you *might* be able to fit some present day East European samples with a two-way model with some other sets (like the POL_CWC set N47 and N49).
