I made a modern distribution map of R1b-U106 based on FTDNA stats. Countries with insufficient sample sizes excluded

Horses may have been replaced by cars on the roads, but the words are actually (distantly) related.

Y-DNA Pie Chart of samples from the Unetice (Aunjetitz) Culture
Even more interesting is the discrepancy between Amber wealthy in the EBA vs the MBA. It seems to have been exceptionally fashionable during the Unetice culture and British EBA, but fell out of fashion by the MBA, whence it became popular in Denmark, Southern Germany and Pannonia.

Genetics circles are kind of funny because you often find people blaming the Fall of Rome and the state of Modern Italy on Italians becoming less like Spaniards
Which is ironic given the typical opinion these people have on Spaniards

For any Spaniards reading this, I love Spain, I just find the contrast between Republican Rome vs the modern Spanish stereotype to be funny

Something Iβve just wondered, if Proto-Indo European originated in Anatolia, why is there no word for βlionβ in the lexicon? All the surviving words are borrowings.

It surprises me every time I revisit the subject, but Mexicoβs genealogy documentation is very robust. I was able to trace back centuries today without much effort or time.

mtDNA U8b was a haplogroup that traversed between western Asia and Europe during the Epipaleolithic about 20,000 years ago. It came from an unidentified population that contributed significantly to modern west Eurasians. They may fit into the WHG category but we don't know.

This would be the smaller sibling to U8b>K which seems to have survived among the Anatolian & Caucasian Hunter Gatherers, and would then expand back into Europe with the introduction of agriculture.

U8a is the most divergent mtDNA lineage a European can belong it. It diverged from all other U8 lineages about 37,000 years ago. It was very common in the Magdalenian culture then became very rare after they were mostly replaced by WHG. Modern people with it all descend from a common ancestor, most likely from the Solutrean culture, who lived 20,000 years ago.
