Just before the work went into print 4 samples from Podgorovskiy catacomb burrial VIII-IX century of saltovo-mayatskaya culture (excavation by V.A.Sarapulkin, anthropological expertise by I.K.Reshetnikova. Established that this burrial had Y-DNA haplogroups R1b and N1c. This matter wil be covered in another special article.
Samples were tested MOE Key Laboratory of Contemporary Anthropology, School of Life Sciences, Fudan University.

Saltovo-Mayaki is the name given by archaeologists to the early medieval (VIII-IX centuries A.D.)culture of the Pontic steppe region roughly between the Don and the Dnieper Rivers. Their culture was a melting pot of Onogur, Khazar, Pecheneg, Magyar, Alan, and Slavic influences. During the ninth century the Saltovo-Mayaki culture was closely associated with the Khazar Khaganate, and archaeological sites from this period are one way that historians track the geographic scope of Khazar influence.
Interesting discussion from here: http://www.anthrogenica.com/showthread.php?2573-New-DNA-Papers-General-Discussion-Thread/page120&
Afanasiev study (2015) suggests that "ethnic Khazars" had a kurgan burial rite, and he localizes their main center on the Lower Don. Their skeletons show Mongoloid traits. The R1b/N1c combo is from the Europoid area of the catacomb style burial rite, more to the north. They are considered Alanic.
Khazar Empire was a multiethnic melting pot, where we should indeed find also the conquering proto-Magyars. I think the N1c in the northern site could be a smoking gun for Magyars. Could it be that these N1c/R1b burials are in fact not Alans but Magyars?
