It looks like earlier Bronze Age Beakers from Central Europe mixed with local I2477-like EEF giving rise to a stable population around the Alps that stayed about the same throughout the Middle Bronze Age and early Iron Age. Wish I could double-check this scenario with the Southern French Beakers and some of the Tollense outliers but none of the kits is working..
