Absorption of local populations surely has had its impact on the Beaker Folk, but not necessary did it lead to attentuation of features.
In their west-bound wanderings, they would encounter in the Ardennes the small-built, sturdy Furfooz type, basically a protomorphic Alpine which still today regionally appears present, commingled in NE France with the blond Noric race though, that next to the Cromagnoid Alpines or Borreby, constitute the bi-polar core element of the Beaker Folk - stronger graded into a dinaroid morphology, less corpulent, tending to a sinewy constitution, long-faced and rather fair in pigmentation.
Further down the Southern Netherlands and the Seine-Oise-Marne region had a strong Alpine bearing, but by the end of the Neolitic however the Nordic/Nordoid element is on the rise and the Alpine present is diminishing.
So are these Irish women phenotypically Beaker Folk?
