All of F* descendants are originally Caucasoid.T is not Veddoid at all i don't know were are you pulling that.E3b might originate in Africa but E and DE as a whole originates in Eurasia but you have right they were not Caucasoid but distantly related to Australoid/Proto-Mongoloid D* carriers so they were intruders into Africa too where they substituted the older Negroid lineages A and B.

Neolithic farmers weren't IE, more likely Afro-Asiatic speakers as attested by various substratums in European language families (Celtic and Germanic as examples). Some of them could also be from earlier Mesolithic languages too.
Some could have spoken other languages too such as South Caucasian or language related to Sumerian. Maybe Basque has its origin in one of those.

Stop with your bullshit J2 and/or G has nothing to do with Indo-Europeans.
It is widely accepted that R1a1a was the sole Indo-European marker.The Urhemait seems to be the Ukrainian steppes or near them.Also the domestication of horse and the spread of Indo-Europeans and the use of horse in warfare fits well.

I see. But I don't think J and G have much to do with Indo-European. IE probably developed in either the Pontic Steppe, Central Asia or Anatolia (unlikely). I don't think J2 and G are so associated with it.
G is prominent in Caucasians and Iranian peoples but quite rare amongst most IE's (Iranians excepted). J2 and G carriers must have been quite some elite to be able to replace the languages like that, I think it is unlikely.
More likely is that G2a spread to Europe during the Neolithic and some latter with the Indo-Europeans, Iranian nomads and the Alans on their way to Iberia.
It is important to note that these haplogroups are both found in areas which retained non-IE languages the longest (Etruscans in Italy, Rhaetians in the Alps, etc...)
I see them as Neolithic survivals, it is likely that much of Neolithic Europe was a mixture of G2a and I1 / 2 IMO.

I keep hearing this but never understand where R1b exists in this scheme of things. I've always held both R1a and R1b to be IE, R1b in Palaeolithic Iberia doesn't seem likely.
My theory to explain Basque R1b is that they simply aquired language as children from their Neolithic mothers rather than the IE males. It makes sense when you consider that women raise the children. Perhaps IE males in that situation just never managed to teach their new wives the IE languages?
