    Default Genomic History of Neolithic to Bronze Age Anatolia, Northern Levant, and Southern Caucasus

    Highlights


    • Genome-wide analysis of 110 ancient individuals from the Near East
    • Gene pools of Anatolia and Caucasus were biologically connected ∼6500 BCE
    • Gene flow from neighboring populations in Northern Levant during 3 rd millennium BCE
    • One individual of likely Central Asian origin in 2 nd millennium BCE Northern Levant

    ...Even if a man lives well, he dies and another one comes into existence. Let the one who comes later upon seeing this inscription remember the one who had made it. And the name is Omurtag, Kanasubigi.

    Thanks!!!

    This is very consistent with what I have thought for a very long time now.

    Proto-Ubaid or Samarra Sumerians were just a mixture between the Anatolian_NEO and Iran_NEO (CHG). They contributed mostly to a genome of Northwest Asiatic people, like Georgians and Kurds. 6th millennium BCE is exactly the era of the proto-Ubaidian (Samarra) Sumerians. It is so great to have now an academic paper that supports my ideas.

    We find that 6th millennium BCE populations of North/Central Anatolia and the Southern Caucasus shared mixed ancestry on a genetic cline that formed during the Neolithic between Western Anatolia and regions in today's Southern Caucasus/Zagros.

    One individual of likely Central Asian origin in 2nd millennium BCE Northern Levant is most likely related to the BMAC!


    So, it is possible that the mystery of the Mitanni might be solved. It is now more likely that they came from the BMAC 4000 years and settled down in an area between Syrian and Northern Kurdistan. There was already contact between the Northern Mesopotamia (Sumerians) and BMAC for thousands of years.

    There could be also the other explanation. People in the Near East such as the Hittites, Egypt and Mycenaeans imported TIN (metallurgy) from Central Asia (BMAC). BMAC was full of tin and at that time tin was very expensive. They made BRONZE artefacts with tin. It is possible that that BMAC lady was just a trader or she was married to a trader from the Near East.

    They found ancient R1b-V1636 in SouthEast Anatolia! R1b in West Asia is very, very old! R1b in west asia predates Yamnaya

    Accordig to the paper this lady was either from NorthEast Iran or a little bit further toward East. Clearly BMAC area.

    She had Northern Mesopotamiam/North West Asian DNA mixed with E-Neolithic South Central DNA related to WSHG (hunter gatherers from Western Siberia), such as Sarazm_En and Geoksyur_En

    She was most likely indeed from NorthEastern Iran/BMAC, because her DNA shows clear connection to the BMAC. Here are BMAC results. She could have some very minor EHG type of DNA since Eastern Eurasian WSHG (hunter gatherers from Western Siberia) already had contact with their EHG relatives
