R1b found in Neolithic

[Dick]

"...while their Y chromosomal lineages were BT, CT, and G2a2a1a, respectively. For Individual 1, we note that we ostensibly observed derived alleles at the diagnostic haplogroup P sites CTS3446 and F212, the R1 site CTS997, and the R1b1a1a2 sites PF6444 and L749."

R1-M269 (R1b1a1a2) has been found in an LBK-context in Austria, 5.500 BCE.

Did an R1b hunter(s) from somewhere around Caucasus join the early farmers 7500 years ago? Could this correlate with the Caucasus origin theories of the Basque language and even the Baskid phenotype?

That's a very good question. By the way, U8a is somewhat common among Basques. Mine is U8b.
