Bright minds of Harvard & @maxplanckpress finally admit that Indo-Europeans(colloquial 'Aryans') came from south of Caucasus mountains- Not central Asia, but 𝘮𝘢𝘺𝘣𝘦 around Iran
Where exactly though?
One day, when ALL the data is out- From South Asia!
biorxiv.org/content/early/…
The study used 45 ancient samples spread across 3000 years to detect population movements. They found that there was movement from the Caucasus into the steppes around the 4th mBCE. These people carried the same ancestry found in neolithic Iran- 𝐚𝐧𝐝 modern Indian populations.
Ponder on these-
"Neolithic precursor populations had greater diversity of both Y & mt chromosomes than hunter populations"

"All Corded Ware samples, except one, belong to a clade within hg R1a-M417 & appear to coalesce shortly before sample deposition"

While Aryan invasion/migration/osmosis is dead, the authors dont go full way & accept some crucial facts .That Vedic didnt 'follow' Harappan, but preceded & was identical with it. And that Indian neolithic remains unsampled.
Compromise, but a step forward.

Makes 0 sense to thee because-
1. You think 'steppe related' is 'steppe derived'
2. You miss gaping unknowns in the equation the article reveals
IVC/Vedic= IranN+X +/! Y
3. You beg the Q of what exactly PIE genome was

Grammer, Math & Logic my wily friend
