Genetic proof of TRB, GAC, and Michelsberg being Descended from Cardial groups and Chasseen culture instead of LBK-Danubian cultures The main genetic difference in Cardial and Michelsberg descended groups (like wartberg) is a increase in HG ancestry and Y-DNA I2 (Chassen & TRB)
Prior to the Michelsberg intrusion, it seemed that Grosgartach-Rössen (Post-LBK) already had considerable HG ancestry and Cardial influence in 4900bc making them appear similar to Michelsberg
Neolithic Samples from the British isles also cluster within this group and very homogenously at that.
Chassen -> Michelsberg -> TRB -> GAC (yellow dots)
Theo Vennemann wasn't thinking big enough.
@VVeltkrieger This plot doesnt prove that
@nomkymem Yeah saying proof is bad wording but it clearly shows there is a difference between cardial trb and GAC from lbk and starcevo Avk and Baden lengyel bridge the gap somewhat
@VVeltkrieger Great post! The next question is why? There was an increase in HG admixture around the middle of the 5th Millennium BC. I’ve heard some interesting theories.
