1. The foundation of Harimandir Sahib was laid by Guru Arjan Dev ji himself - this is what the original Sikh historical sources tell us - refer to sources given below - [1] [2] [3] [4]
The story of Mian Mir laying the foundation is NOT true and...
2. ....it was fabricated three centuries later by a British - E. Nicholl (Secretary, Municipal Committee, Amritsar)
This Mian Mir story is not supported by any original Sikh sources or persian sources and not even the biographers of Mian Mir mentions it [5] ....
3. References.

Male Y- haplogroups IVC cline samples
R - one samples
J2 - two samples
H1 - two samples
Source - Narasimhan et al 2019 (Supplementary data)
2/n another interesting sample was retrieved from a site called Darra-e-kur which is very close to Indus Valley and only separated by mountains. see pic1
R1b1 haplogroup is found in that sample. see pic2
3/n Interestingly this Darra-e-kur sample has IranN (Ganj_Dareh_N) + ANE
this is also the ancestry found as major component in the Harappan & IVC cline samples.
why this Darra-e-kur ancestry is interesting?
