Bronze Age trade from the copper mines of the Urals to Mesopotamia via BMAC realms of Central Asia began in 22nd century BC. One 19th century BC merchant from Ur bought 20 tons of copper in one purchase. Image
Known copper & tin mines of 2200-1800 BC (labeled as “C” & “T” respectively) as well as the cultures & realms of the period. Image
Tin was 10x more costly than silver in Bronze Age Syria. Some tin in mid-Bronze Age came from Zeravshan River basin - river that once flowed into Amu Darya. Indo-Iranian Andronovo people invaded the region around 2000 BC, depopulating it & exploiting its tin mines. ImageImageImageImage

of all the things she has written, surprising that her transsexual comments cause her the most problems.
The "Harry Potter" series involves a conflict between two small groups of blood-defined supermen over whether or not they should exclude an even smaller group. The books also describe a financial system controlled by hook nosed goblins (literally).
Baffling that this series ever became as popular as it did, & I don't expect its popularity or distribution in USA to last. I'd guess that hostility from Christian right in early 2000s let it slip past liberal sensibilities.

Early Bronze Age Greece (~3200-2600 BC) was mostly EEF in ancestry with a significant amount of CHG ancestry from Anatolian migrants. Indo-European invaders who were ~50% PIE/Steppe in ancestry invaded Greece in mid-Bronze Age ~2600-2000 BC. sciencedirect.com/science/articl… ImageImageImageImage
the two pre-IE men from Greece in the early Bronze Age had Y-haplogroups of J2a (most commonly found in Georgia) and an uncommon branch of G2. isogg.org/tree/2011/ISOG… Image
The peoples of the Aegean of the early Bronze Age 3200-2600 were (relatively) homogenous in ancestry - mostly EEF with a significant amount of CHG ancestry. See the admixture graph under "Greece & Cyprus EMBA" - brown is EEF, cyan is CHG. ImageImageImage
