First Anatolian farmers were local hunter-gatherers that adopted agriculture

[Dick]

The first farmers from Anatolia, who brought farming to Europe and represent the single largest ancestral component in modern-day Europeans, are directly descended from local hunter-gatherers who adopted a farming way of life

So basically they were LARPING as farmers, just like Bosniensis does.

There was a minor amount of natufian introgression but they were mostly of local AHG stock.

Not realy. Anatolia was first conquered by Levantines, then, the natives adopted their masters' civilization.


As previously analysed in more detail by Martiniano (Supplementary Section SI4 in 51 ), the genomic sample Bar31 was identified as G2a2b (see Table 65), a part of G2a lineage that had been previously identified in Neolithic farmers from Germany, the western Mediterranean (8 , 35 , 205 , 217 ) and also the Near East (9 , 50 ). The same haplogroup was observed for Lepe52, a sample identified in this study as of Aegean-like origin. Other Y haplogroups from Anatolia (I2 for Akt20, E1b1b1 for Bar11, see Table 65) were both previously observed in ancient Near East samples (12 , 50 ).
