Aktorzy:
1. „Davidski” – zazdrosny i bezlitosny bóg i zakochany w sobie tytan intelektu, twórca pierwszego wszechświata zwanego „Eurogenes”, który jest praprzyczyną różnych wypadków, które wydarzyły się w akcie drugim i kolejnych.
Cierpi katusze jak Prometeusz, pewnie dlatego, że niosąc ognik wiedzy maluczkim, wpadł kiedyś w Yamnę, jako PIE… i połamał sobie w na tym zęby, co go pewno boli do dziś dnia. Dodatkowo nie jest pieszczony przez inne narcystyczne kosmiczne byty, o których uwagę zabiega, a które nie zawracają sobie nim głowy. Stąd jego rosnące rozgoryczenie, może także napędzane przez zmiany wywołane magicznymi sosami, które ochoczo zażywał.
2. „StP” – wg niego nieomylny i wszystkowiedzący tytan i ałtorytet. Pod pseudonimem „stanp” pojawi się w akcie drugim, kiedy to objawi się w drugim wszechświecie nazwanym „Sylwetka”, gdzie jak się okazuje bywał czasem wyśmiewany przez „S_u_P_K” itp., za swój karpacki patriotyzm, czy inne ograniczenia..
3. „SKRiBHa” – zwykły śmiertelnik, choć w sumie to wcale nie taki zwykły. To wstyd wstydów, paproch paprochów, mierność nad miernościami. Tak przynajmniej czasem wspólnie twierdzili zarówno tytani, jak i bogowie, choć czasem byli jednak innego zdania i nie oceniali SKRiBHy, aż tak jednoznacznie negatywnie, ani też początkowo nie atakowali go ze ślepą furią, choć trzeba im przyznać, że z aktu na akt coraz bardziej rozgrzewali się i rozkręcali…
4. „S_u_P_K” – nieomylny i wszystkowiedzący tytan tytanów, ałtorytet ałtorytetóf. Tak go określił „ambroziak”, który sam będąc twórcą wszechświata zwanego „Sylwetka”, czyli jego głównym bogiem, musiał przecież wiedzieć, co mówi…
5. „ambroziak” – Global Moderator Hero Member, twórca drugiego wszechświata zwanego „Sylwetka”, jego główny bóg i uber admin, zarządzający wszystkim, w tym i adminem, aczkolwiek uznający swą niższość i podwładność wobec tytana „S_u_P_K”, nie tylko jeśli chodzi o wiedzę, czy ałtorytet…
6. „Zbyszko Tarczewski” Administrator Hero Member, admin i drugi z bogów drugiego wszechświata, ale nie z tych sprawiedliwych, czy pracowitych. Pewno jest jak Odyn ślepy co najmniej na jedno oko, więc z powodu tej usterki, należy mu to i owo wybaczyć…
7. „Ingvar” – kolejny wg niego samego nieomylny i wszystkowiedzący tytan i ałtorytet, aczkolwiek ciągle wyśmiewany przez „ambroziak” i innych tytanów intelektu, ale także i zwykłych śmiertelników, za swój allo-allo patriotyzm, czyli takie ograniczenie i skrzywienie turbogermańskie, skierowane przeciwko innym tytanom, ale także i bogom, przynajmniej identyfikujących się inaczej, zgodnie, czy też nie zgodnie ze stanem faktycznym…
8. „Horus” – zwykły śmiertelnik, często pojawiający się znikąd i wypowiadający logiczne twierdzenia, które są najczęściej ignorowane przez tytanów i półbogów, którzy jednak nie atakują go, tak jak to robią ze SKRiBHą, choc ich twierdzenia są w sumie logicznie identyczne…
9. „Wojtek” – zwykły śmiertelnik, czasem nieoczekiwanie pojawiający się znikąd i szybko znikający, wypowiadający w tym czasie logiczne twierdzenia, które są jednak zawsze ignorowane przez tytanów i półbogów.
10. Chór kozłów złożony z innych śmiertelników, którzy wygłaszali różne logiczne i nielogiczne twierdzenia, opłakiwali odejście „S_u_P_K”, jako nieomylnego i wszystkowiedzącego tytana tytanów, ałtoryteta ałtorytetóf, po tym odszedł był na zawsze z tamtego wszechświata.
…..
Miejsce akcji:
Dwa prawie równoległe i czasem wzajemnie przenikające się wszechświaty stworzone przez ich zazdrosnych i bezlitosnych bogów, co najmniej 3 wątki, od 4 do 7, a czasem nawet do 11 czasoprzestrzeni, kilka czarnych dziur i tuneli czasoprzestrzennych, przez które niektóre byty z obu wszechświatów przenikały z jednego wszechświata do drugiego…
Na podstawie tego co ocalało, wszystko wyglądało coś jakoś tak:

@All
Heggarty to improve!
The Indo-European language tree need not be a hybrid; Its origin does not need to be sought in the Iranian Neolithic population. There is no need to question the closer affinity of Baltic (Balto-Slavs) and Indo-Iranian and to deny the centum-satow dialects and the rules of „ruki”.
The solution is simple. According to classical Indo-European studies, it should be recognized that centum was the initial, root dialect of Indo-European languages. There was no shared innovation in the group. They were created only after the migrations of separate groups (see I.R. Danka in: Bednarczuk, Języki Indo Europejskie, vol. 1, p. 280 and here).
Common linguistic innovations, even before the migrations, took place only in the satem dialect, and further innovations separately in each group, either during or after the migration.
And all of this could only be in the R1a genetic family.
The first migration of R1a with the kentum diaect, branch YP4141 (and probably the younger YP7211), probably took place through the Southern Carpathians, and from there to Anatolia, Iran, Arabia and Palestine; and separately to the Alps.
Later under snip M417 snip and dialect kentum CTS4385 moved to Northern and Western Europe.
On the other hand, in the lines under the Z645 snip, innovations were made separately for the Z283 line, mainly to Central and Eastern Europe, and separately for the Z93 line, mainly to Asia.

Well… Although I have addressed my comment directly to StP, I will answer to your erroneous assertion anyway because I am delighted of what you have mentioned. 🙂
It appears that you are rather confused and are unable to distinguish between so-called ‚alternation’ and ‚palatalization’, see:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternation_(linguistics)
‘In linguistics, an alternation is the phenomenon of a morpheme exhibiting variation in its phonological realization. Each of the various realizations is called an alternant. The variation may be conditioned by the phonological, morphological, and/or syntactic environment in which the morpheme finds itself.’(…)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palatalization_(sound_change)
Palatalization /ˌpælətəlaɪˈzeɪʃən/ is a historical-linguistic sound change that results in a palatalized articulation of a consonant or, in certain cases, a front vowel. Palatalization involves change in the place or manner of articulation of consonants, or the fronting or raising of vowels. In some cases, palatalization involves assimilation or lenition. (…)
Do you now recognize your error?

@All
Wolfgang Haak and Johannes Krause are responsible for this sort of naive bullshit. From their paper…
Genetically, the ancestry of Indo-Iranic speakers also derives much more heavily from south of the Caucasus and from Neolithic Iran than from the Bronze Age steppe (16) (see Box 2).
Right, because a set of shared „Caucasus/Iranian” alleles in an admixture analysis that entered India on ~10 separate occasions over a span of several thousand years actually represents the same language group.
On the other hand, one major pulse of Eastern European ancestry along with R1a (which dominates Indian upper castes) apparently left no linguistic traces in India.
Haha.

@all
I like the work of Heggarty et al. that he captured and used in DensiTree the oldest elements of the PIE language. After all, languages in isolated patrilineal families could develop extremely slowly and for a long time, and probably from the roots of the R1a paternal lineage. „Horse, wheel and axle” is perhaps just some middle stage in the evolution of the PIE language.
It is a pity, however, that the irrationally adopted concept of the evolution of the hybrid PIE language did not allow, contrary to the data of paleogenetics, to show the real genetic and linguistic unity already at the beginning of this language and in one lineage R1a , as linguistics and genetics rightly postulate. Depriving PIE of unifying dialectal elements, such as centum-satem and the „ruki” function, does not solve any problem, but rather harms knowledge and unnecessarily breaks the unity of satem languages of Europe and Sout Asia (probably at the behest of those who dislike „those bad Europeans”).
The spread of the indigenous and primordial centum together with the migration of the early branches of the paternal R1a tree (according to the quoted sketch of the R1a expansion from Geo Nomad) justifies the centum in Anatolia and the Tocharians, as well as in western, northern and southern Europe; leaving the „logically” later satem branches for Central Europe -Eastern and Eastern, and for Indo-Iranian Arians , according to the requirements of Indo-European.

In relation to the above, I have already asked you some questions here:
Unfortunately you were not bother to give me any answer so I generally explained this to @Gio here:
You are stubborn and I am stubborn as well, so I will repeat:
What if satem or alternate forms of word roots were the initial stage of PIE, hm?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternation_(linguistics)
I am guessing that you did not hear of so-called ‘debuccalization’ or ‘deoralization’, did you?
I told you this in 2014 already but again you have ignored this. I will repeat it though.
Here you all have some data to digest:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debuccalization
Debuccalization or deoralization[1] is a sound change or alternation in which an oral consonant loses its original place of articulation and moves it to the glottis (usually [h], [ɦ], or [ʔ]).[2] The pronunciation of a consonant as [h] is sometimes called aspiration, but in phonetics, aspiration is the burst of air accompanying a stop. (…)
Here you all have got some examples from the same source:
(…)
Proto-Greek
In Proto-Greek, /s/ shifted to [h] initially and between sonorants (vowels, liquids, and nasals).
Proto-Indo-European *septḿ̥ → Proto-Greek *heptə́ → Ancient Greek heptá (ἑπτά) „seven” (vs. Latin septem)
Intervocalic /h/ had been lost by the time of Ancient Greek, and vowels in hiatus were contracted in the Attic dialect.
post-PIE *ǵénesos → Proto-Greek *génehos → Ionic géneos (γένεος) : Attic génous (γένους) „of a race”
Before a liquid or nasal, an /h/ was assimilated to the preceding vowel in Attic-Ionic and Doric and to the following nasal in Aeolic. The process is also described as the loss of /h/ and the subsequent lengthening of a vowel or consonant, which kept the syllable the same length (compensatory lengthening).
PIE *h₁ésmi → Proto-Greek *ehmi → Attic-Ionic ēmí (εἰμί) : Aeolic émmi (ἔμμι) „I am”
Sanskrit
In Sanskrit, /s/ becomes [h] (written ḥ in transliteration) before a pause: e.g. kā́mas (‚erotic love’) becomes kā́maḥ.
Additionally, the Indo-European aspirated voiced palato-velar *ǵʰ- became [ɦ]: e.g. *bʰeh₂ǵʰús „arm” becomes Sanskrit bāhúḥ.
Spanish
Main article: Spanish dialects and varieties: Debuccalization of coda /s/
A number of Spanish dialects debuccalize /s/ to [h] or [ɦ] at the end of a syllable or intervocalically in certain instances.
Goidelic languages
Main articles: Scottish Gaelic phonology: Lenition and spelling and Irish initial mutations
In Scottish and Irish Gaelic, s and t changed by lenition to [h], spelled sh and th.

@Ebizur
(…) Please explain the following facts according to your theory of debuccalization: (…)
Many thanks for your comment. I think that we both have to clarify something if we want to get everything properly explained.
This is not ‘my theory of debuccalization’ so logically I can not explain anything according to it as ‘my theory of debuccalization’ does not exist at all. I do not know, who first discovered and described rules of debuccalization / deoralization or so-called ‘rough breathing’ as well.
As I can see in wikipedia, the term was coined by prof. Trask, R. L. (1996), A Dictionary of Phonetics and Phonology, London and New York: Routledge, p. 106
Robert Lawrence Trask (10 November 1944 – 27 March 2004) was an American-British professor of linguistics at the University of Sussex, and an authority on the Basque language and the field of historical linguistics. (…)
deoralization /(…)/ n. (also debuccalization) Any phonological process in which a consonant segment loses its oral articulation. For example, non-prevocalic [s] is deoralized to [h] in many varieties of Spanish: mismos ‚same’ (plural) [mihmoh].
Rough breathing is a kind of debuccalization / deoralization as well and it has been known from ancient times, see:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rough_breathing
In the polytonic orthography of Ancient Greek, the rough breathing (Ancient Greek: δασὺ πνεῦμα, romanized: dasỳ pneûma or δασεῖα daseîa; Latin: spīritus asper) character is a diacritical mark used to indicate the presence of an /h/ sound before a vowel, diphthong, or after rho. It remained in the polytonic orthography even after the Hellenistic period, when the sound disappeared from the Greek language. (…)
Here I will repeat just one example:
Proto-Indo-European *septḿ̥ → Proto-Greek *heptə́ → Ancient Greek heptá (ἑπτά) „seven” (vs. Latin septem)

As it concerns the ‘English hundred ≠ sundry’, I think that this poem will be helpful…
https://lexiline.blogspot.com/2010/02/satem-centum-error-der-satem-kentum.html
Here you have got an explanation, a quote from the poem:
[Explanation of the above verse: Latvian, i.e. proto-European SUNS, SUNIS viz. dim. SUNITis („dog”), became German HUND and English HOUND. So how did Germanic HUNDred come to have the same beginning four letters as their word for dog HUND.
This is because, as we see in verses below, the old Gothic term for thousand was thuSUND and thus SUND then also must have meant 100 at some ancient time, degrading to HUND, viz. hundred.
Based on the German ZEHN „ten”, this too was related, i.e. ZEHNTE = „tenth”. SUND and thuSUND would thus logicaly have been variant number forms of the same root, meaning, as we shall see below „collection, heap”. Nothing indicates that original forms were satem forms such as KUND or HUND. Rather, these are later degradations of the original S-based roots.]
I wrote about it here:

Please, pay attention that there are some minor mistakes in this poem, see:
‘thousand’ not ‘thousund’,
‘Nothing indicates that original forms were centum forms such as KUND or HUND.’ not ‘Nothing indicates that original forms were satem forms such as KUND or HUND.’
https://www.etymonline.com/word/thousand
thousand (adj., n.)
„10 times one hundred; the number which is ten times one hundred; a symbol representing this number;” Old English þusend, from Proto-Germanic *thusundi (source also of Old Frisian thusend, Dutch duizend, Old High German dusunt, German tausend, Old Norse þusund, Gothic þusundi).
Related to words in Balto-Slavic (Lithuanian tūkstantis, Old Church Slavonic tysashta, Polish tysiąc, Russian tysiacha, Czech tisic), and probably ultimately a compound with indefinite meaning „great multitude, several hundred,” literally „swollen-hundred,” with first element from PIE root *teue- „to swell,” second element from PIE root *dekm- „ten.” (…)

Many thanks for your clarifications. I am going to answer your requests as precisely as I can. However before I can do it I have to clarify as follows:
Please pay attention and in the future do not omit or simplify the facts that:
a. I have not only been going on ‘debuccalization’ / ’deoralization’, see my original statement:
What if satem or alternate forms of word roots were the initial stage of PIE, hm?
b. The statement itself is a question, moreover I used a conditional there, as well I addressed everything to ‘word roots’ and ‘the initial stage of PIE’…
c. Therefore I have not stated anywhere for example that allegedly ‘debuccalization’ / ’deoralization’ can or explains everything I related to in my original statement!
Here you all have some examples of words / roots / stems as alternated forms of which, I my opinion can not be anyhow explained by ‘debuccalization’ / ’deoralization’ or ‘palatalization’ only, see:
KieN’ / SieN’ / CieN’ / DzieN’ / Z+Gi(e)N’…
To summarise the problems up and to properly explain the alternate forms of the aforementioned words / roots / stems, which at the same time exist in Polish language, we have to take into account / equation:
a. ‘primordial satem or alternated forms of some PIE roots / stems + b. secondary ‘debuccalization’ / ’deoralization’ some of them.
Such an analysis has to be done accordingly to different discovered and described sounds changes / ‘laws’ (D>T, T>D, L>R, etc.) and… only one language theory, i.e. the so-called ‘wave model / theory’, where the so-called ‘novelties’ / ‘innovations’ have been triggered on the ‘edges of waves’, where two waves of people with their languages or dialects of so-called ‘dialect continua’ collide.
The theory is attributed to Johannes Schmidt and Hugo Schuchardt, see:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wave_model
https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/52/Wave_model_Schmidt.svg
Here you all have the same but more detailed visualisation, see:

Proto-Indo-European *septḿ̥ → Proto-Greek *heptə́ → Ancient Greek heptá (ἑπτά) „seven” (vs. Latin septem) (…)
In my next comment I am going to come back to your first two examples but before I have ask you two questions, as you have not commented on the explanation given to your ‘English hundred ≠ sundry’:
Do you understand the explanation given and confirm that according to it the older form of word ‘Hundred’ must have been a satem one, something like ‘Sundred’,.. or do you deny it?
Do you understand and confirm that PIE *septḿ̥ was a satem form which only later was secondary ‘debuccalized’ / ‘deoralized’ and next ‘devoiced’ into Proto-Greek *heptə́ and next lost its initial H sound in Ancient Greek heptá (ἑπτά), which is explained by the so-called rough breathing,.. or do you deny it?

As usual, I of course will study all the matter. It seemed to me that you tried to use the “Alternation” for saying that there wasn’t a priority of the centum IE as to the satem ones. I answered that centum languages are older than the satem ones. What you call “palatalization” is a case of the passage from centum to satem languages (even though Woudhuizen wrote interesting things also about that). The matter of course merits to be studied carefully, but what I said, that centum languages are older is a truth, thus it is a proof, I think (in spite of the centum Tokharic), of the origin in the west and not in the east, and remember that Latin is linked with the pile dwellers of the emerged Adriatic.

“Wee , alias SKRiBHa said” — WTF??? I have one account here, I post under this ID and that’s it. Which I daresay Davidski can confirm, if he were remotely interested.
“In linguistics, we don’t have 100 percent theories and data, ” — Who is this “we”? Certainly you’re no linguist. I’m not sure you even understand what a theory is.
Since you resort to ad hominems and baseless accusations of deception, rather than argue your case on its merits, and since most of what you say is literally incoherent anyway, I see it was a mistake to try to take any of it seriously.

There is no way the Turks would be considered honorary Aryans while the Greek people being left out of the game. Nor would the Indians be considered since they would be considered of mixed ancestry. Also, Aryans didn’t come from India. They came from a mixture of the Corded ware Culture and the Yamna culture invading the Indian subcontinent.The Nazi’s never believed the Aryan race came from India or Iran. It is very pivotal to get your facts straight here. Also, the Germans had a broader term for Aryans within Europe. The map animation choice used during the discussion of what an Aryan is is extremely lazy and the research even more so. If I were being honest this video honestly should be deleted.

Slavs have little, if any, Scytho-Sarmatian ancestry
Here’s an abstract of a new study from the David Reich Lab about ancient Slavs, titled „Genetic identification of Slavs in Migration Period Europe using an IBD sharing graph”. Emphasis is mine:
Apparently this abstract is causing a bit of confusion online because of the mention of possible Sarmatian or Scythian ancestry in Slavs.
However, it’s important to understand that the authors are referring to certain Slavic or even just Slavic-related individuals, usually from culturally heterogeneous frontier settlements deep in what is now Russia.
So yes, it’s possible that some of these individuals carry Sarmatian, Scythian or other exotic eastern ancestry. But even if this is true, then obviously we can’t extend this inference to all ancient and modern-day Slavs.
Indeed, below is a G25/Vahaduo Principal Component Analysis (PCA) that shows why modern-day Slavic speakers can’t be linked genetically to Sarmatians or Scythians. To experience a more detailed version of the PCA paste the data here into the relevant field here.
As you can see, dear reader, most of the Slavs (Belarusians, Poles, Ukrainians and many Russians) cluster with the Irish near the western end of the plot.
Some Russians are shifted significantly east of them along the „Uralic cline” and, as a result, they cluster with various Uralic speakers such as Mordovians. That’s because when Slavs migrated deep into what is now northern Russia they mixed with Uralic speakers who were there before them.
Most of the Sarmatians and Scythians form a cluster southeast of the Slavs and Irish because they carry significant levels of East Asian ancestry. This type of eastern ancestry is basically missing in modern-day Slavs (see here).
Several of the Scythians cluster among the Slavs and Irish, but that’s because they’re genetic outliers, whose existence, if anything, suggests that some Scythians had significant Slavic-related and/or Irish-related ancestry.
Now, even though most of the Slavs do cluster with the Irish in the above PCA plot, I strongly disagree with the authors of the abstract when they claim that „differentiating Slavic, Germanic, and Celtic people is very difficult” with PCA. It’s actually pretty damn easy and I’ve been doing it successfully for many years. For instance, see here.

I suspect there’s some wishful thinking among the Russian authors of this preprint that they have Scythian ancestry.
But Russians quite obviously have Uralic ancestry, not any type of steppe nomad ancestry, because they show Siberian admixture not East Asian admixture. And this is in line with uniparental markers and historical sources.
Splitting Siberian and East Asian admixture is easy if you know how to do it.

What the authors wanted to show isn’t clear. That the Slavs don’t exist, it’s a Sarmato-Germano-Baltic mixture? What East Germans? What Sarmatians? I don’t think there are Russian authors involved here, I mean, it’s their main idea. More likely not Russian.
Also, I don’t think they meant about „Scythian farmers”, their theory can archeologically fits with the interaction of Zarubintsy culture and Sarmatians.
Considering the many yellow circles in Hungary, maybe they meant something related to HUN_Sarmatian_Late_Danube-Tisza?
From the summary
„…. in the Late Roman time in the Lower Tisa region two ethnically different groups of population lived parallel with each other: reigning, Sarmatians-nomads, who correspond with inhumation, and Sarmatians-Limigantes – sedentary population in settlements. The so-called culture of Limigantes is not connected with previous local finds and appears to be new in the archaeology of Tisa region…..Analogies for the early hand-built ceramics, constructions and basis of the objects (buildings) researchers find in the sites of Kievan, Chernyakhov and Przeworsk cultures. As a result derives the conclusion that population of the settlements in the Late Roman period was Slavic in its core, without excluding presence of the local Illyrian. Dacian and Sarmatian elements.”

„The individuals belonging to the “Slavic” IBD sharing cluster form a chronological gradient on the PCA plot, with the earliest samples close to the Baltic LBA/EIA group.”
So, real Slavs are Latvian-like people?

Early Slavs were more like Belarusians, not exactly like Latvians. And East Germanics are Chernyakhov and Wielbark culture people. But I reckon most of the Germanic ancestry in Slavs is from later groups, like the Mennonites from the Low Countries.
There were Mennonite villages in my part of Poland.

The mixing of the East Germans, i.e. genetic Scandinavians, with the genetically Baltic-like population is clearly visible in Poland in the Roman period in the last work of Stolarek. Such a population has inhabited Poland since the times of the Trzciniec culture, as shown by Chyleński’s work.
And David must have lost interest in the biological history of the Polish population, because he ignored the two most important studies on this history that have been published so far – Chyleński’s and Stolarek’s.

“What the authors wanted to show isn’t clear. That the Slavs don’t exist, it’s a Sarmato-Germano-Baltic mixture?”
I really don’t know what they are trying to say. Look at their poster:
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/F9-0XHuWYAAFCuw?format=jpg&name=4096×4096
‘self-identity=/=language=/=material culture=/=genetic ancestry’
Why do they put it in such bold letters?
We are looking for ethnoses with the help of genetics. We assume that in the past genetic ancestry and languages correlated. Material cultures change in time and space and can be common to different ethnoses or can be different within one ethnos, so they are not so important.
Why do they bring self-identity?
Do they suggest that even if you find people who had Slavic genetic ancestry and spoke Slavic languages they were not Slavs, because one cannot prove that they self-identified as Slavs? Do they suggest that IBD can tell us something about self-identity?
How do they define Slavs?
In my opinion from the genetic and linguistic data that we have the most probable is Slavic continuity within following cultures::
Mierzanowice/Strzyżów/Iwno –>Trzciniec/Komarów–> Lusatian/Chernoles–>Przeworsk/ Zarubintsy–>Western/Eastern Slavs

Sometimes it’s better not to say anything at all. For instance, have a look at the main PCA in one of those Polish papers you mentioned. The Iron Age and Middle Age Polish samples form their own cluster, which is impossible, and it even contradicts the other results in the paper. It’s not a good advertisement for Polish science, that’s all I’ll say.

@Davidski
“The Iron Age and Middle Age Polish samples form their own cluster, which is impossible, and it even contradicts the other results in the paper”.
Why is it impossible? There were two different populations during the Iron Age in Poland: Germanic which didn’t cremate (minority burials) and Slavic which did cremate (majority burials). Most of the samples from the Iron Age were Germanic, with some Slavic contamination and few outliers. Germanics left Poland and from the Middle Age we have only a pure Slavic population.
On PCA you see Germanic cluster from IA and Slavic from MA. They are different. But from outliers and contaminations they concluded that Slavic population was present in Poland during the Iron Age, and probably it was that population which cremated. It fits the results from Trzciniec and Lusatian cultures where we have Slavic R1a and Balto-Slavic drift.

I wasn’t referring to outliers. Do they even have C14 dates? I was making the point that the PCA in question was total garbage and probably suffers from a serious technical problem. That’s because it shows the Iron Age and Middle Age samples in the same cluster to the exclusion of modern Europeans.

In fact, PCA was performed using Eigensoft. Sorry! I didn’t pay attention to it.
Thus, the second PCA separates the populations better because it is limited to north-western and central-eastern Europe, while the first covers all European genetic variability. Well, this is normal for every PCA. In PCA with G25 it is the same.

What the fuck are you babbling about now?
The G25 always separates the IA and MA samples into Scandinavian and East Slavic clusters.
There’s no reason why these two populations should cluster together to the exclusion of everyone else in Europe, unless there’s a technical problem.
And the authors are wrong when they claim that the MA population has ancestry from the IA population.

I’m talking about Figure 1 C. The European PCA.
Not only do the IA and MA samples overlap, even though they shouldn’t, but the MA samples cluster in Western Europe.
There’s no way in the world that the MA samples will cluster with Western Europeans in the G25 unless you zoom out and focus on broad West Eurasian ancestry.
Genetically, the IA samples are Scandinavians while the MA samples are early Slavs without Scandinavian ancestry, and that’s exactly what the G25 shows.
So stop acting dumb and being dishonest.

I don’t agree with you. I think that the probability that the MA population has ancestry from the local IA non-Germanic population is quite high.
It is derived from Trzciniec–>Lusatian–>Przeworsk.
Y-DNA and mt-DNA and some autosomal data support it.

I don’t think it’s the case. There were also many German colonists among Eastern Slavs, and Turkic speakers, like Tatars.
They apparently were talking about the early Slavs, that they mixture of Bronze Age Baltic inhabitants + Germans + Sarmatians. But it’s impossible with the classical Sarmatians and Scythians. Only if the Baltic LBA/EIA groups + Corded + something southern. The Balts and Slavs differs in the level of the southern component, not Germanic or Sarmatian.
By the way, looks like they confirmed the „Slavicness” of the Imenkovo culture. It’s attribution has been disputable. Probably, the Republic of Tatarstan is in a bad mood right now.

@Michael
This paper refers to ancient samples from Russia that fall in the Slavic cluster based on an Identity-by-Descent (IBD) genealogical analysis.
This doesn’t mean that they’re all Slavs, but they must be closely related to Slavs if they’re in the Slavic IBD cluster.
The authors point out that based on a PCA analysis these samples can be described as a Baltic-related population that acquired some Germanic and Sarmatian admixture.
So this doesn’t mean they’re Balts or that they even came from near the Baltic. It just means that they’re similar to Balts, like Belorussians are similar to Balts.
Ergo, no one is claiming that Slavs didn’t really exist until some Balts mixed with some Eastern Germanics and Sarmatians.
The point being made is that early Slavs were Baltic-like, and they gradually changed over time due to admixture to what they are today.
The reason I said that Slavs didn’t get most of their Germanic admixture from Goths, but rather from later Germanic groups, is because Middle Age Polish samples are still very Baltic-like and very similar to Belorussians.
Modern Poles are more western than them due to admixture that must have arrived in Poland during the Middle Ages or later.
And it’s not true that there’s substantial Tatar ancestry in Russians, because Tatars have significant East Asian admixture, while Russians lack this type of admixture. Russians have Uralic/Siberian ancestry instead.

Yes, that’s why I think that Mierzanowice/Strzyżów/Iwno –>Trzciniec/Komarów–> Lusatian/Chernoles–>Przeworsk/ Zarubintsy–>Western/Eastern Slavs is the most likely path for the development of the Slavic language.
Also don’t exaggerate with medieval German colonists. Germans were settling mostly in cities and the population of the cities was less than 5% of the total population, and was subject to many plagues etc.
Later German colonization also didn’t influence the Polish population much. Germans lived in German villages separate from Polish villages and didn’t mix much. Much more Poles were Germanized than Germans Polonized. After WWII the all German-speaking population was expelled.

David, on NE G25 PCA also is some MA samples grouped with Scandinavians, but I don’t want to argue about that.
The Wielbark skeletal population is not a Scandinavian population, because the native Scandinavians did not have a 20-100% Eastern European admixture and Slavic paternal uniparental markers. This is clearly a mixed Scandinavian-Balto-Slavic population.
And I still don’t understand why the medieval Polish population couldn’t have had ancestors in the Wielbark population? If you are not convinced by the qpAdm Stolarka models, there is another work on the way proving this using other research methods.

The Wielbark population is obviously Scandinavian by and large. These Wielbark samples have the same „Baltic” component that the ancient Germanics from Scandinavia have, which effectively means they don’t actually have any real Baltic ancestry. It’s just northern ancestry. You don’t need any new methods to work this out. You just need to be objective.

The Polish MA samples cluster strongly with modern Belorussians, but what is really interesting is that a good number of the Polish MA samples are more eastern than the modern Belorussians. This suggests that proto-Slavs may have been genetically more eastern than modern Belorussians. So it’ll be interesting to see Pavel’s early Slavic samples, and also which of these samples are the first to show the East Germanic IBD links.

Also, the Slavic IBD cluster shows the strongest links to the Germanic cluster.

First, you don’t know what Slavic cluster looked like before the Middle Ages, because Slavs cremated.
In my opinion, both the MA Poles and modern Poles form an elongated east to west cluster because their ancestors from Trzciniec/Lusatian cultures formed an elongated east to west cluster. And the reason for this is that post-Corded Ware Proto-Slavic populations from Mierzanowice/Strzyżów/Iwno cultures mixed with farmers who had more Balto-Slavic drift in the East and farmers who had less Balto-Slavic drift in the west. That elongation is caused by the level of Balto-Slavic drift. I thought you understood this.
https://postlmg.cc/Mv0X6gc1
There are rumors that Lusatian culture was full of Slavic R1a and most similar to Poles.
The Germanic IBD cluster shows the strongest links to the Slavic cluster because Germans assimilated a lot of Slavs. Half of East Germany is Slavic. Germans from Pomerania, Silesia etc. are mostly Germanized Slavs.
The theory that Slavs are mixed Balts and Germans is nonsense. Get over it.

We’re not too far off from getting a detailed genetic transect of time from Poland. I can assure you that the earliest Polish Slavs will be Baltic-like, and more eastern than Belorussians.

Very Baltic genomes among medieval Polish Slavs who stopped burning their dead is not surprising, considering the genetically very Baltic character of the late Trzciniec population. In general, medieval populations are characterized by small intergroup differences with high intragroup diversity. Therefore, more important than PCA are methods to determine whether such very Baltic individuals share more origin with autochthonous Polish groups or with external groups. In other words – whether they are local or whether they came from Latvia or Russia.
Uniparental markers are also important, as David points out, because the patrilineal Slavs were formed only between 300 BC and 300 AD. And this happened in the West Slavic population:
„BATWING of the Slavic populations of Kaszuby and Lusatia provided convergent MCMC chains with unimodal distribution and revealed that their divergence took place 1.7 kya (95% confidence intervals: 1.4–2.1 kya) and was preceded by 0.6 ky of demographic expansion with a 4.2% growth rate (Table 4).”
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3598329/
Western Slavs could not have lived far from Poland at that time, as most of the archaeological M458 comes from Poland or its surrounding area:

They’re not from Latvia or even Lithuania, because their Y-chromosomes obviously aren’t from there.
Balts have a lot of Y-HG N, so do Russians, and this isn’t a recent development.
They might be from Belarus or nearby parts of Ukraine, but why would there be so many East Slavs throughout Poland at the time? Wouldn’t this be historically documented?
Be careful ambron, or you’ll end up in a situation where you’re arguing that Poles went extinct during the Iron Age, just to put the Slavic homeland in Poland.

David, there is absolutely nothing to indicate that Slavs come from Belarus. Here the problem boils down primarily to linguistic facts. According to most modern linguists, Slavs come from the Polish-Ukrainian border. However, Kortlandt talks about the early (around the turn of the eras) shift of the Lechite tribes towards the north-west. And this concept is closest to me, because it is confirmed by both linguistic facts and genetic data.

Ambron is trying to prove that during several hundred years of the reign of the Wielbark Goths, a huge population of Slavs hid among them and, of course, cremated themselves. The problem is that they must have had exactly the same culture as the Goths from Wielbark, except for one exception, probably quite important, a funeral ritual that concerned only those with the Slavic genome, they probably had genetic tests performed on them before death to select them:) I’m surprised that David he has so much patience to explain it over and over again to Ambron and EastPole.

If they had so strong cultural ties to follow burial ritual since centuries, it must be also visible in some other aspects of culture, if they theoretically lived during this time near Goths. If they lived apart of them in some isolated forests it is impossible to explain they had identical culture like Goths. But only such isolation could explain Goths wouldn’t mix with them heavily. It was no Internet and TV in this time to globalize European tribes. In short we don’t have any Slavic cultural artifacts except V/VI century in Poland.

No one attacked territory which was later Poland in this time to destroy those culture. So what the heck?:)
Everything point to conclusion those cultures vanished becasue they members emigrated. So why Slavs living in territory of later Poland which therotically didn’t have any other culture wouldn’t follow it? And degraded to primitive Prague culture?

“Ambron is trying to prove that during several hundred years of the reign of the Wielbark Goths, a huge population of Slavs hid among them and, of course, cremated themselves. The problem is that they must have had exactly the same culture as the Goths from Wielbark, except for one exception, probably quite important, a funeral ritual that concerned only those with the Slavic genome, they probably had genetic tests performed on them before death to select them:) I’m surprised that David he has so much patience to explain it over and over again to Ambron and EastPole”.
You don’t understand what culture is. And what cultural genetic barriers are and why they can exist for a very long time. The most important elements of culture are religion and language, not material culture. Actually religion is the most important. You have Jews and Muslims in America, they speak the same language, drive the same cars, and they don’t mix. Why?
Slavs are the largest and the oldest Indo-European ethnos which never left their homeland and preserved their culture for millennia. Still Slavic folk culture has elements which help us in understanding some verses in Rigveda and Hyperborean derived Hellenic cults. Bronze Age migrations to India and Greece explain why.
We have Slavic Y-DNA in Mierzanowice/Strzyżów/Iwno–>Trzciniec/Komarów–>Lusatian and then cremation started. Your theory that people who were cremated were some migrants from Scandinavia who completely replaced Slavs and then Slavs miraculously reappeared in the Middle Ages when cremation stopped because all Germanics left is pseudoscience, you can never prove it.

I think they are completely off track, all Slavic groups have absorbed the local population of the respective areas on their way, regardless of whether they are West, East or South Slavs, this is also shown by the genetics, but they were successful in dominating their language, with small exceptions like Romania and Hungary. What is the problem that some Germanic cultures such as Przeworsk and Wielbark emerged in Poland, clearly not all Germanic groups were in large numbers but the local population of today’s Poland in the Bronze and Iron Ages were not Slavs.

I knew you will use exactly this argument and it is funny to you use it against you:)
If Slavs and Goths would have the same Wielbark culture, why after Goth migration they stopped to use it in the same area and theoretically with part of this culture members already there?
If religion forbade Slavs to continue it and ordered first to not use ceramic, jewllery and tools at all and then start to use primitve Prague version of it? But why?:) Just because Goths migrated?
Or maybe Slavs living in what is now Poland didn’t have any material culture and lives in hunter-gatherers stage? You postulate maybe this situation?:)
Any plague wouldn’t destroy everyone capable of continue Wielbark/Przeworsk material culture in whole Poland territory but it seems you must postulate such unprobable situation to defend your position that muh Slavs lived there since begining of time.

Since all early Germanic loanwords in the Baltic languages are mediated by the Slavic language, Kortlandt believed that the Lechites separated the Goths from the Balts. He did not know that the Goths were simply a mixed Germanic-Slavic people, because it turned out only in Stolarek’s research.

It’s fascinating how people build their theories based on a few samples. As far as I can tell there is nothing in the record that disproves the presence of Slavs and their leading haplogroups in Poland prior to the Iron Age. Goths very likely were not autochthonous to Poland and so when their war bands arrived it’s likely they either exterminated, drove out or subjugated whoever was living there. And when they left some of those people that they drove out may have returned. I don’t think it’s sensible to question that the majority of those Wielbark samples appear Scandinavian. They tested a few samples from, what people suspected was a Gothic village or two and, surprise, surprise, found a majority of Scandinavians (though with some Slavic like individuals). The whole Polish autochthonous theory can’t be predicated on Poles having occupied every part of present Polish territory continuously since when? Out of Africa? Even Kostrzewski argued that proto-Poles were found in Trzciniec and or Lusatian cultures but not predominantly in Wielbark. So they’d still be there ahead of Germanics but with some back and forth.
Not sure what “more Eastern ”than Belorussians means but would not be surprising to see Slavs originate 2k-3k BC somewhere in the further NE. Maybe the Balts drove them out or maybe Ugros and maybe the ones who remained became Balts.

Are you trolling?
The Wielbark samples from Poland aren’t mixed. They’re 100% Scandinavian.
And there are only a couple of Balto-Slavic outliers among them. They’re marked as outliers for a good reason.
I don’t know what these people represent. They might be non-Wielbark locals, migrants from east of Poland, or wrongly dated samples.

Davidski said…
@Lucas Slawbuski
It’s always good to have more samples, but if you take a look at what we’ve already got from Bronze Age, Iron Age and Medieval Poland, it’s enough to come to some obvious conclusions.
One of these obvious conclusions is that there’s no close relationship between the Trzciniec, Wielbark and Middle Age Polish samples.
These are three different groups. So different, in fact, that we can confidently say that there was an almost 100% population replacement from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age and from the Iron Age to the Middle Ages.
And even if we take the Wielbark people out of this equation, because they were migrants from Scandinavia, then we still have a ~100% population replacement from Trzciniec to the Middle Ages.
That is, currently there’s no obvious source population for the Middle Age Poles in ancient Poland.
See that’s why we’re now seeing all sorts of special pleading from a variety of people online, like the claim that the Middle Age Poles are just Trzciniec people with some admixture from Southern Europe, or that the Wielbark Goths have a Balto-Slavic genetic component.
Obviously, there’s no evidence of any massive migration from the south that would turn the Trzciniec people into the Middle Age Poles. And despite what ambron keeps repeating here, the Wielbark Goths are just Scandinavians genetically.
So let’s accept the fact that the genetic shifts in Poland from Trzciniec to Wielbark to the Middle Ages were profound and in likeness almost total.
Once you accept this fact, then you can start thinking objectively about the origins of the Middle Age Poles.
I don’t know if a more thorough survey of ancient Polish remains will uncover a pre-Wielbark or Wielbark era Polish population that is ancestral to the Middle Age Poles.
I’m guessing that you’re confident that it will, but if so, I have no idea where this confidence is coming from.

The Wielbark population contains a large Balto-Slavic admixture, absent among the native Scandinavians. In G25 her can be modeled using Baltic BA, i.e. it is the so-called Balto-Slavic drift. And you yourself wrote something to the effect that if someone has a high Balto-Slavic drift, he or she has recent Balto-Slavic origins.
Stolarak writes clearly that there are no outliers in the population of Wielbark. Just look at the f4 statistics, where most Wielbark individuals share a similar amount of origin with the northern Western and Eastern European populations. And individuals with greater Western European origin and Slavic Y chromosome haplotype prove even more clearly the mixing of two genetically different populations. In upcoming research, such „outliers” appear in large numbers at all Wielbark sites and share origin with both the Lusatian population and medieval Poles.
You can call it trolling, but I will repeat once again that the Goths were genetically Scandinavian-Slavic hybrids, because I know what I’m talking about.

After the fall of Rome, the decline of material culture covered all of Europe, including Polish lands, whose population largely based its economy on trade with Roman provinces. Therefore, the degree of advancement of material culture is not important, only its continuity on Polish lands from Roman times to the Middle Ages.

This is impossible because the Wielbark population clusters very strongly with ancient Scandinavians that lack Baltic or Finnish admixture.
If it were true, then we would see the Wielbark population cluster somewhere between the ancient Scandinavians and Balto-Slavs.
So the Wielbark population is totally Scandinavian, and you have to learn to accept this fact.

@Davidski
“obviously Balto-Slavic drift in its true sense came about from all of the different types of genetic components that were present in the ancestral Balto-Slavic population.”
I don’t understand that statement at all. The ancestral Balto-Slavic population, if such existed, was Corded Ware, and it didn’t have any Balto-Slavic drift.
Fatyanovo population which originated from Indo-Slavic Corded Ware split didn’t have any BS drift. Therefore the early Balto-Slavic Corded Ware population (or early Baltic and Slavic Corded Ware populations) which also originated from this split didn’t have this drift.
Early Corded Ware Balts gradually started to acquire that drift by mixing with some drifted farmers as we see in Spiginas2.
Early post-Corded Ware Slavs didn’t have BS drift as we see in Mierzanowice/Strzyżów/Iwno cultures and gradually started to acquire it by mixing with some drifted farmers as we see in Strzyzow_Culture_oBS:poz794.
Even in Slavic Trzciniec culture we see gradual mixing and spreading of BS drift, as many samples don’t have that drift or have very little of it.
BS drift has nothing to do with the origin of Balts and Slavs and even some farmers in Hungary have it. It originated from some HG who mixed with EEF. I suspect it came from Dnieper-Bug HG who early switched to farming and then mixed with Tripolye farmers. But we have to wait for aDNA to be sure.

@EastPole
Corded Ware samples from northern Poland have some Balto-Slavic drift, and they’re dated to earlier than Spiginas2.
I don’t want to get too theoretical about this, but genuine Balto-Slavic drift is something that developed in the proto-Balto-Slavic population.
However, samples older than the proto-Balto-Slavs will show some Balto-Slavic drift if they donated ancestry to Balto-Slavs, or they’re closely related to such groups.
That’s because Balto-Slavic drift will be projected back in time when Balto-Slavs are used as reference populations in various analyses, like the G25.

The Wielbark population is obviously Scandinavian by and large.
These Wielbark samples have the same „Baltic” component that the ancient Germanics from Scandinavia have, which effectively means they don’t actually have any real Baltic ancestry. It’s just northern ancestry.
You don’t need any new methods to work this out. You just need to be objective.
Dlatego mu odpisałem:
David, that’s right, we have to stay objective. Objectivity and consistency! After all, it is the „Baltic” component, which is non present in the native Scandinavians, that distinguishes in first the Scandinavians from the Balto-Slavics.

Odpowiedź Dawida dotyczyła tego mojego wcześniejszego wpisu:
The Wielbark skeletal population is not a Scandinavian population, because the native Scandinavians did not have a 20-100% Eastern European admixture and Slavic paternal uniparental markers. This is clearly a mixed Scandinavian-Balto-Slavic population.
And I still don’t understand why the medieval Polish population couldn’t have had ancestors in the Wielbark population? If you are not convinced by the Stolarek’s qpAdm models, there is another work on the way proving this using other research methods.

Kolegom śledzącym dyskusję na Eurogenes zwracam uwagę, że Dawid cały czas upiera się przy tym, że ludność wielbarska jest populacją skandynawską bez żadnej domieszki bałtosłowiańskiej. Jednym słowem mówi na na białe – czarne. Gdyby nie to, że ze mnie niespotykanie spokojny człowiek, mogłoby to być nieco irytujące. Przy czym Dawid nie potrafi przedstawić żadnych dowodów na tę rzekomą, czystą skandynawskość populacji wielbarskiej, o które go proszę. Dlatego teraz on prosi o pomoc Matta:
Can you think of any simple formal stats that will show decisively that the Wielbark samples are unmixed Scandinavians?
Czyli co…? Matt miałby zaprojektować jakiś model badawczy, którym dałoby się oszukać rzeczywistość. Nie wróży do dobrze, bo pokazuje, że koledzy allo – wbrew oczywistym faktom – zamierzają dotąd manipulować wynikami badań genetycznych, aż uda się je dopasować do ich z góry założonej koncepcji. Tylko pytanie: czy im się to uda…?

Stanowisko Dawida się nieco rozmiękcza:
Yeah, the Trzciniec population is in part closely related do Balts and Slavs.
And there is indeed some very specific Y-chromosome continuity from Bronze Age to Medieval and modern Poland.

O, kombinowali, kombinowali i coś wykombinowali:
OK, as it turns out it’s pretty easy to show with f3 stats that the Wielbark groups from Kowalewko, Maslomecz and Weklice are North Germanic.

Skomentowałem ten wpis, ale ponieważ teraz w Australii jest noc, mój komentarz ukaże się dopiero jutro rano. Dlatego cytuję go tutaj teraz po polsku:
Użyłeś tylko połowy z 68 próbek wielbarskich z badania Stolarka. Dlatego na PCA populacje ci się wyraźnie rozdzieliły. Ale i tak widać dużą grupę próbek wielbarskich położonych względem współrzędnej poziomej (dryf bałtosłowiański) na wysokości Słowian Zachodnich i Wschodnich Niemców.
Statystyki f3, w przeciwieństwie do statystyk f4, nie są w stanie pokazać domieszki. W statystykach f4 Stolarka większość próbek wielbarskich dzieli podobną ilość pochodzenia z populacjami północno-zachodnioeuropejskimi i wschodnioeuropejskimi.
Domieszkę bałtosłowiańską u Gotów najlepiej pokazują modele z użyciem Baltic Est BA, które wykonał swojego czasu Arza dla opublikowanych wówczas próbek wielbarskich. Wystarczy je powtórzyć dla nowych próbek z badania Stolarka:
„Claims that samples from Kowalewko represent unmixed and purely Germanic population are clearly contradicted by the genomic data.”

Ten wpis Dawida musiał rozczarować chyba tych kolegów allo, którzy już byli niemal pewni, że Dawid przeszedł całkowicie na ciemną stronę mocy:
Proto-Slavs formed in large part from a subset of the Trzciniec population that was Baltic-like, and thus eastern genetically.
Whether this means that this Trzciniec or Trzciniec-derived group was also eastern geographically is still an open question. Lots of options here, don’t you think?
But it’s likely that there were other peoples involved in the formation of the early Slavs, probably including the Wielbark Goths. Hopefully more samples from the Iron Age and early Middle Ages will help to clarify this.
Poles are largely derived from proto-Slavs, but with some extra Germanic admixture from the Wielbark Goths, Vikings, recent German migrants and so on. There might also be some significant West Baltic ancestry in parts of Poland today.
Indeed, gradual gene flow into the ethnic Polish population from basically all of the populations living in and near Poland seems to have had a minor but noticeable impact on the Polish gene pool and the shape of the Polish cluster in my PCA plots.

Nie wiem, jaki masz cel w tym zacieśnieniu kręgu kultury trzcinieckiej. To znaczy kwestionujesz mapę Makarowicza? Mnie się wydaje, że nie mamy podstaw kwestionować archeologów i szerszego areału tego zlożonego kręgu. Oczywiści że kultura (nie krąg) trzciniecka, a właściwie trzciniecka środkowa (patrz wikipedia) może być w tym pasie od Środkowej Warty poprzez północną Małopolskę i teren przyległy, Prypeć do Środkowego Dniepru.

Wcale mnie nie rozczarował, Trzciniec obejmuje całą Białoruś, zachodnią Rosję i większość Ukrainy. W tym poleskie błota:)
W pełni zgadzam się z Davidem że wschodni genetycznie Trzcincianie mogli dać początek Słowianom. Z oczywistych względów trudno zakładać by pochodzili oni z zachodniej części tej kultury, bo ci zachodni mieli by żyć na jej wschodzie?:) A skoro ty uznajesz Wielbark za wieloetniczną kulturę to nie możesz odmówić tego Trzcińcowi?
PCA ph2tera pokazuje że 99% trzcinieckich próbek tworzy odrębny klaster od MA Slavs.
Nie Sławku, nie zakładam że Słowianie powstali na wschód od wschodniej granicy kultury trzcinieckiej czyli nad Donem i Oką:)

Dyskusja nad najnowszym wpisem Dawida na Eurogenes jeszcze trwa, ale myślę, że można ją już podsumować, a przynajmniej obecny jej etap…
Tak więc wbrew wcześniejszym zapowiedziom, Dawid w żaden sposób nie dowiódł, że Goci wielbarscy byli populacją czysto skandynawską, bez domieszki słowiańskiej. A miał tego dowieść w odpowiedzi na moje twierdzenie, że Goci wielbarscy to genetycznie mieszana populacja skandynawsko-słowiańska. Nie dowiódł, gdyż nie można uznać za wiarygodne wyniki uzyskane po usunięciu 50% danych, w tym niemal wszystkich niosących informacje o słowiańskich wariantach genetycznych. Dawid próbował też pominąć sprawę typowo słowiańskich haplotypów chromosomu Y wielbarskich Gotów, sugerując, że mogą być one zanieczyszczeniem współczesnym DNA. Na co ja przypomniałem, że zgodnie z procedurą badawczą, próbki zanieczyszczone współczesnym DNA wyłączane są z dalszych analiz już na etapie wstępnych badań przesiewowych. Tak więc słowiańskie haplotypy chromosomu Y są kolejnym dowodem na mieszany, skandynawsko-słowiański charakter genetyczny Gotów wielbarskich.
Natomiast niewątpliwym pożytkiem analiz Dawida jest ustalenie bardzo bliskiego pokrewieństwa polskiej populacji trzcinieckiej i średniowiecznej. Dawid obiecał poświęcić tej problematyce odrębny wpis, tak więc zamierzam trzymać go za słowo.

Tak, ciągłość genetyczna polskiej populacji od czasów trzcinieckich jest jaskrawo widoczna. Gdyby działał mi skrypt do załączania obrazków, wrzuciłbym mapkę korelacji autorstwa Domena, z której wynika, że współcześni Polacy dzielą nawet do 89% pochodzenia z ludnością trzciniecką.
Niestety, jak wiadomo z kuluarów i czego przedsmak daje już Dawid, autorzy nadchodzących publikacji zamierzają wnioskować o braku bezpośredniej ciągłości średniowiecznej populacji polskiej od ludności trzcinieckiej. Tak więc możemy spodziewać się jakiejś wolty typu migracji w kulturze Pomorskiej ludności postrzcinieckiej do kultury zarubinieckiej i jej powrotu do Polski we wczesnym średniowieczu.

Tym, którzy śledzą dyskusję na Eurogenes, chciałem zwrócić uwagę, że Dawid nie potrafił mi w przekonujący sposób odpowiedzieć ma moje pytanie, w jaki sposób proponuje interpretować fakt, że w statystyce f3(CmeroonSMA, EstoniaBA) Weklice ulokowały się pomiędzy Niemczą a Lądem. Oczywiście interpretacja może być tylko taka, że Weklice okresu rzymskiego wywodzą podobną ilość pochodzenia od Bałtosłowian (Baltic BA), jak średniowieczna Niemcza i Ląd.
Warto zestawić więc ten wynik z badaniem dr Pauliny Borówki, w którym część próbek weklickich grupuje się na IBS-UMAP z populacją Brześcia Kujawskiego i ogólnie Weklice dzielą najwięcej pokrewieństwa z populacją średniowiecznego Piotrowa, a w statystykach f3 wywodzą podobną ilość pochodzenia od Baltic BA, jak średniowieczne populacje Brześcia Kujawskiego, Chełmna i Ostrowite.

Wielbark Goths were overwhelmingly of Scandinavian origin
When used properly, Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is an extraordinarily powerful tool and one of the best ways to study fine-scale genetic substructures within Europe.
The PCA plot below is based on Global25 data and focuses on the genetic relationship between Wielbark Goths and Medieval Poles, including from the Viking Age, in the context of present-day European genetic variation.
I’d say that it’s a wonderfully self-explanatory plot, but here are some key observations:
Please note that the PCA is only based on relatively high quality genomes, so as not to confuse the picture with spurious results and noise. Also, all outliers with potentially significant ancestry from outside of Central, Eastern and Northern Europe were removed from the analysis. The relevant datasheet is available here.
However, sanity checks are always important when studying complex topics like fine-scale genetic ancestry. To that end I’ve prepared a graph based on f3-statistics of the form f3(X,Cameroon_SMA,Estonia_BA)/(X,Cameroon_SMA,Ireland_Megalithic), that reproduces the key features of my PCA. The relevant datasheet is available here.
Polish groups from the Middle Ages are marked with the MA suffix, while the Iron Age Wielbark Goths are marked with the IA suffix.
If you’re wondering why I plotted the f3-statistics that I did, take a look at this (all groups largely of Scandinavian origin are emboldened):
Interestingly, the Middle Bronze Age samples associated with the Trzciniec Culture (Poland_Trzciniec_Culture) show a closer genetic relationship to Medieval Poles than to Wielbark Goths or Northwestern Europeans. This is indeed the case both in terms of genome-wide and uniparental markers, including some very specific lineages under Y-chromosome haplogroup R1a.
But that’s a much more complex issue that I’ll leave for another time. So please stay tuned.

Were the proto slavic speakers then descended from a mix of Central European Celts and a Baltic like population? And are we to understand that initially some had Scythian admixture but this was subsequently mixed out of the Slavic genepool?

Proto-Slavs definitely weren’t part Celtic.
They were probably largely derived from the Trzciniec population, and then later they mixed with various Germanic groups and also came in contact with Iranic speakers.
Apart from that we need more samples from Iron Age Poland and Ukraine to see what exactly led to the formation of the proto-Slavs.

You used only half of the 68 Wielbark samples from the Stolarek study. Therefore, on the PCA, the populations were clearly separated. But you can still see a large group of Wielbark samples located relative to the horizontal coordinate (Balto-Slavic drift) at the height of the Western Slavs and Eastern Germans.
The f3 statistics, unlike the f4 statistics, are unable to show admixture. In Stolarek’s f4 statistics, most Wielbark samples share a similar quantity of origin with Northwest European and Eastern European populations.
The Balto-Slavic admixture among the Goths is best demonstrated by models using Baltic Est BA, which Arza made for the Wielbark samples published at that time. Just repeat them for new samples from the Stolarek study:
„Claims that samples from Kowalewko represent unmixed and purely Germanic population are clearly contradicted by the genomic data.”

If the Wielbark groups were mixed then they would plot near Poland_Viking on the f3 graph.
And your point about f4 stats doesn’t make any sense because f3 stats are more sensitive to recent drift.
I wonder how many years you’re going to keep pretending that the Wielbark Goths are mixed before you give up?
By the way, Stolarek should retract his paper, correct it, and publish it again.

First of all, you removed 50% of the samples, including those with high Balto-Slavic genetics and Slavic haplotypes Y-chromosome, which:
„Genome-wide data suitable for further analyses (at least 10.000 SNPs for an individual for the PCA, ADMIXTURE and qpADM analyses) were obtained for 197 individuals, 68 and 129 from the IA and MA groups, respectively.”

I ran 38 Wielbark samples in the PCA and 44 in the f3 test.
Why is it that out of all of these decent quality Wielbark samples from two papers and four different sites only one female showed Balto-Slavic ancestry?
Did you perhaps consider that the low quality samples don’t really have Balto-Slavic ancestry, and instead it’s just errors and contamination?

Yes, Slavs were probably largely derived from the Trzciniec. I just don’t see how you can make Slavs by mixing Trzciniec with Germanic or Baltic groups.

In my opinion modern Slavs were derived from Slavic Trzciniec population which later mixed with various groups coming from the South.
Which of those Turkic Sarmatians and Scythians, with whom Slavs had contact were actually Iranic speakers?

Your model is purely hypothetical and unrealistic.
Only a subset of the Trzciniec population is relevant to Polish ancestry. That is, the most eastern shifted subset.
There were no migrations or any significant gene flow from the south into Poland during the Iron Age and early Medieval period.
All of the direct evidence shows cultural influences and significant population movements from the northwest into Poland at this time.
And IBD/haplotype data corroborates that Scandinavia is where the early Slavs and early Poles got their main admixture from.

There is no reason to assume that Sarmatians and European Scythians were Turkic speakers. They were almost certainly Iranic.
(I am less sure about the language of „Scythians” around the Altai, but that is a different story, because Iron Age proto-Slavs had no contact with those.)

Scythians were Indo-European-speaking Iranian nomads who were later largely absorbed by Turkic-speaking nomads of Eastern Europe and Central/East Asia. In Europe, some traces can be found, for example, among today’s Romanians and in a diluted form among Poles from the Carpathian Basin through return migration of Ostrogoths (contact with Alans)

“Your model is purely hypothetical and unrealistic.”
From Wikipedia:
“The Lusatian culture developed as the preceding Trzciniec culture experienced influences from the Tumulus culture of the Middle Bronze Age, essentially incorporating the local communities into the socio-political network of Iron Age Europe.”
“The Tumulus culture was eminently a warrior society, which expanded with new chiefdoms eastward into the Carpathian Basin (up to the river Tisza), and northward into Polish and Central European Únětice territories.”
Migrations from the Carpathian Basin to Poland made the Trzciniec population more similar to modern Slavs.
This model is quite realistic:

Your model is purely hypothetical and unrealistic. How do you imagine it demographically? You know Goths and Balts were very small populations and Slavs were huge populations, as they lived on the best agricultural land in Europe. So how did it happen? Do you think you can take 10000 Goths and 10000 Balts and make 10,000,000 Slavs in a few generations? And how did it happen? Were Balts actually stealing women from Goth’s villages?

David, there is too much evidence of the genetically mixed Scandinavian-Slavic nature of the Wielbark Goth population to dismiss it all as errors or contamination.
But I don’t want to argue with you about this, because ultimately my conclusions regarding the biological history of the Polish population are similar to yours.

I would like to point out that in ethnolinguistic research, genetic data cannot be analyzed in isolation from linguistic facts. And linguistic facts (the oldest layer of Slavic toponymy) show that in the Trzciniec area we can only find the Proto-Slavic homeland in the zone between the middle Warta and the middle Dniester.

There is no point in arguing with the facts:
„The allele frequency in Iron Age samples is at intermediate levels (c. 37.5%), suggesting this rise in frequency must indeed have occurred during the Iron Age (c. 1500-2500 years ago), but was largely complete at the onset of the VA. Interestingly, the allele frequency of the allele is much higher (c. 40%) in the Bronze Age population from the neighboring Baltic Sea region than in Bronze Age Scandinavia. Given the geographic and cultural proximities between Scandinavia and the Baltic region, this may suggest gene flow between the two regions resulting in increased frequency of lactase persistence in Scandinavia during the Iron Age.”

They’re talking about the lactase persistence allele, and speculating that the allele rose in frequency in Scandinavia because of admixture from the East Baltic.
This is funny, because there’s no direct evidence of admixture from the East Baltic in Bronze Age or Iron Age Scandinavia. Not even in this paper.
Also, it’s been shown that this allele rose in frequency due to selection not admixture.

„Baltic EST BA is just being used as a proxy for local Scandinavian ancestry.”
How this understand? Should I understand this to mean that Poles (47.0 Baltic EST BA) derive most of their ancestors from Scandinavia?
I can, of course, agree that Baltic BA at the level of several percent may be hum resulting from the distant common origin of Scandinavians and Balto-Slavics, but not at the level of a dozen or several dozen percent.
Of course, I admit that I have a problem, because the problem is archaeogenomics itself. However, just because a sample does not meet the SNP limit for G25 does not automatically mean it is an error or contaminant.

Davidski said…
@ambron
Data quality is a very important issue that doesn’t get enough attention in ancient DNA papers, let alone among online hobbyists.
I generally remove samples from the G25 when they have less than 10% of the SNPs available.
But even at 10-15% many samples produce noisy, uncertain results.
This isn’t usually a huge problem when studying basic, broad ancestry components, but it can be a serious issue when looking at fine-scale ancestry, like intra-European genetic components.
And there’s no way that anyone can reliably work out with f4 stats whether a low coverage sample like that is North Germanic or Balto-Slavic, or a mix of the two.
There should be a higher threshold in ancient DNA papers for missing data and contamination, especially in certain studies that focus on fine-scale ancestry.
You and many others here need to start thinking about this issue instead of pretending that there’s no difference whether a sample has 15,000 markers or 1,000,000 markers.
You need to start paying attention both to the number of markers available and the contamination levels.

Despite David’s skepticism, it is obvious to me that the Wielbark Goths have a Slavic/Balto-Slavic admixture. The IA Swedes also have a Slavic/Balto-Slavic admixture, as I was assured by the critics of Stolarek’s work (including one academic geneticist), who cited this fact to prove that the Goths could have brought this admixture with them from Scandinavia.

Your comments about the quality of the samples are of course correct. However, in the scale of the entire population, lower quality samples are equally important because they show the frequencies of specific characteristic alleles occurring in it.

In fact, the most suspicious are samples that are too good quality. Because the degradation of biological material progresses over time, a sample of too good quality raises the suspicion that its DNA is a contamination from a person buried later or from a scientist examining the bone material (archaeologist, anthropologist or geneticist). Such a sample is usually excluded from further analysis at the very beginning. It can also be subjected to verification procedures, such as C14 dating, molecular dating with subsequent mutations in the Y chromosome and confrontation with mutations in the Y chromosome from scientists who had contact with bones and biological material.
Because the Y chromosome makes up only 0.38% of the genome, its characteristic polymorphisms may be preserved in their entirety (or almost in their entirety) even in low-quality samples. Wielbark M458 samples clearly show signs of degradation of biological material over time and do not contain young polymorphisms – medieval or modern. In my opinion, they are further evidence of the mixed Scandinavian-Slavic genetic character of the Wielbark Goths.

This is pure fiction. There has never been a single case of this happening.
High coverage ancient samples with low levels of contamination are never excluded from studies.
Obviously, the samples that are too heavily damaged and/or contaminated are the ones that are routinely removed from further analyses.
From this point, I would urge anyone reading these comments to ignore anything that ambron has to say about ancient DNA.

David, Lucas
David is an eminent specialist in genetics. But we are not talking about people here, we are talking about scientific problems.
Regardless of the words I used to describe the problem, the crux of the problem is that samples contaminated with modern DNA are excluded from further analysis at the initial stage of testing. So the Slavic genetic variants found in the Wielbark population cannot be contamination with modern DNA, as David suggests. It is worth noting that David does not address the crux of the problem, but clings to words. And in the absence of factual arguments, David employs eristics, depreciating the competence of the adversary.
I am indeed not an expert in genetics (although genetics is not foreign to me, as I am a pharmacologist), but I am entitled to my opinion and to express it in a public forum. And of course, I do not change my opinion: the Slavic haplotypes of the Y chromosome in the Wielbark Goths are further evidence for the mixed Scandinavian-Slavic character of the Wielbark population.
My opinion can of course be ignored, as David advises.

„Yeah, the Yamnayans with R1b were the upper class buried in kurgans, while those with R1a were the artisans buried out the back somewhere.”
It’s more like a SPECIFIC group of Yamnayans who happened to be R1b-Z2103 were the ruling clans in the OPEN STEPPE, not that all R1bs were elites. I would assume most R1bs, even Z2103s, were just like R1a, I2, etc.. and were buried normally.
And those ruling clans (and their close relatives in the „poorer” kurgans) would be the only ones that received kurgan burials. Most people in that culture would simply be buried normally.
If we truly buy SS -> Yamnaya, this is a pretty solid assumption. Yamnaya overnight losing all the Y-DNA diversity that populations like SS/Khvalynsk had seems far-fetched. It’s more like sampling bias based on who was buried in kurgans. Even the direct patrilineal ancestors of CW people, had that Y-DNA diversity of SS/Khvalynsk.

The so called rich and poor Yamnaya burials are all R1b-Z2103 and I2a-L699, or something that is on the way to those markers because of missing data.
And this is true for all of the Yamnaya samples that I’ve seen from several different sites that are yet to be published.
So, as things stand, what you’re claiming isn’t supported by any direct evidence.
If this ends up being the case, and David Anthony and David Reich publish a paper claiming the same sort of thing based on no direct evidence, then they’ll look pretty stupid IMHO.

Yeah, David Anthony isn’t analyzing, he’s story telling.
It’s a really bad hypothesis that ignores obvious things like the fact that there’s always some way that social stratification like this is overcome by individuals.
So even if there was a ruling Yamnaya kurgan clan rich in Z2103, we’d expect to see one or two instances of R1a in the rich burials.

Musaeum Scythia on the Seima-Turbino Phenomenon
A few weeks ago bioRxiv published two preprints on the Seima-Turbino Phenomenon (see here and here).
I can’t say much about these manuscripts until I see the relevant ancient DNA samples, and that might take some time.
However, for now, I will say that both preprints really need to emphasize the profound impact that the Sintashta-related early Indo-Iranian speakers had on the Seima-Turbino Phenomenon. This, of course, would require Wolfgang Haak and friends to pull their heads out of their behinds and admit that the proto-Indo-Iranian homeland was in Eastern Europe, not in Iran.
At the same time, it’s likely that the Seima-Turbino Phenomenon originated deep in Siberia, and its inception was probably most closely associated with the West Siberian Hunter-Gatherer (WSHG) genetic component. It’s important that the preprints emphasize this too.
Moreover, I can’t see any convincing arguments in either preprint that the Seima-Turbino Phenomenon was mainly associated with proto-Uralic speakers, or even that it was an important vector for the spread of proto-Uralic. So there’s not much point in forcing the Uralic angle on studies focused on the Seima-Turbino Phenomenon. Indeed, what we also need is an archaeogenetics paper dealing specifically with the proto-Uralic expansion.
Apart from that, I’d like to direct your attention to the fact that Musaeum Scythia has already written a fine blog post about these preprints:

Decent argument, big if true since Sredny Stog is the only (arguably) viable homeland for PIE/PIA on the steppe and it’s not near the Kartvelian homeland.
Sredny Stog had cultural links withe Caucasus you moron.

@Orpheus
Pay attention you moron. This is what Iosif Lazaridis is literally saying:
If West Asian males didn’t participate in the spread of CHG ancestry … That scenario is dead in the water.
So he’s trying to prove that West Asian males at least helped to spread some of the CHG into Eastern Europe.
I have no idea why though, because no one ever argued that they didn’t, since we even have the West Asian Y-haplogroup J1 up in Karelia during the Mesolithic.
The point is that obviously the spread of CHG into Eastern Europe was largely female mediated. See that’s why we only see a few instances of J1 in the ancient steppe, along with a wide variety of West Asian mtDNA lineages.
So unfortunately, Iosif is losing his grip on reality, which is very sad.

New version of Allentoft’s paper:
https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.05.04.490594v6?ct
„Our study has provided new genetic knowledge on these steppe migrations on two levels: we have identified a hitherto unknown source of ancestry in HGs from the Middle Don region contributing ancestry to the steppe pastoralists, and we have documented how the later spread of steppe-related ancestry into Europe via the CWC was first mediated through peoples associated with the GAC. In a contact zone that included forested northern regions, the CWC was rapidly formed from a cultural and genetic amalgamation of steppe-groups related to Yamnaya and the GAC groups in eastern Europe.”
Fig. 3 is interesting showing Middle Don ancestry in CWC.

Population Genomics of Postglacial Western Eurasia
doi: https://doi.org/10.1101/2022.05.04.490594
This article is a preprint and has not been certified by peer review
Abstract
Western Eurasia witnessed several large-scale human migrations during the Holocene. To investigate the cross-continental impacts we shotgun-sequenced 317 primarily Mesolithic and Neolithic genomes from across Northern and Western Eurasia. These were imputed alongside published data to obtain diploid genotypes from >1,600 ancient humans. Our analyses revealed a ‚Great Divide’ genomic boundary extending from the Black Sea to the Baltic. Mesolithic hunter-gatherers (HGs) were highly genetically differentiated east and west of this zone, and the impact of the neolithisation was equally disparate. Large-scale ancestry shifts occurred in the west as farming was introduced, including near-total replacements of HGs in many areas, whereas no substantial ancestry shifts happened east of the zone during the same period. Similarly, relatedness decreased in the west from the Neolithic transition onwards, while east of the Urals relatedness remained high until ~4,000 BP, consistent with persistence of localised HG groups. The boundary dissolved when Yamnaya-related ancestry spread across western Eurasia around 5,000 BP resulting in a second major turnover that reached most parts of Europe within a 1,000-year span. The genetic origin and fate of the Yamnaya have remained elusive but we demonstrate that HGs from the Middle Don region contributed ancestry to them. Yamnaya-groups later admixed with individuals associated with the Globular Amphora Culture before expanding into Europe. Similar turnovers occurred in western Siberia, where we report new genomic data from a ‚Neolithic steppe’ cline spanning the Siberian forest steppe to Lake Baikal. These prehistoric migrations had profound and lasting effects on the genetic diversity of Eurasian populations.

Arsen, stop projecting your inferiority complex onto others, because you’re the only waste of time & space here.
Btw allentoft et al originally claimed that GAC disappeared due to CW, Dave even features the Schroeder article; but somebody told them that was not correct. Good to see they’ve seen the wisdom, eventually. Might have taken 200+ of them & 4 years..

look Rob, in this new work they refer to the same diagram, that is, for more than a year they have not changed their minds and in the same way depict the hunter-gatherers of the Caucasus as a mixture of the Upper Paleolithic of western Asia, plus the Upper Paleolithic of the Caucasus and a little Upper Paleolithic of northern Eurasians

@ambron, there are no models for modern-day people, but I assume we are looking at the clusters they label:
Estonia_3000BP_2500BP
EuropeNE_2500BP_800BP?
If this is the case, then turning to their Supplementary IX and Supplementary X proportions, we see:
Supplementary Table IX – „Deep” Proportions: https://i.imgur.com/nSIC6Rw.png
Supplementary Table X – „PostNeol” Proportions: https://i.imgur.com/TP0k3ez.png
(Labels in these may not be quite right as the clustering doesn’t exactly follow such borders, caution.)
It does indeed seem like there is a curious result of the models resolving „Baltic_BA” groups by putting more MiddleDon_7500BP or Ukraine_10000BP_4000BP (Ukraine HG) ancestry into them rather than more WHG. This may be due to how they’ve built the models.
The model is certainly picking up a „HG” shift, but not necessarily from where we expect.
Where does your 7% come from?

So, as I suspected, the Middle Don HG „eats” the Balto-Slavic HG completely.
On the other hand, it may be an interesting contribution to the discussion on the source of the Balto-Slavic drift.

The Middle Don samples are not directly relevant to the ancestry of modern Europeans, including Balto-Slavs.

The most important thing is that all subsequent studies confirm your old suspicions:
„Interestingly, on the PCA plot, the European Bronze Age cluster is more or less half way between GAC and Latvia_LN. This is also where modern-day Poles and Ukrainians cluster on such plots when they’re not significantly skewed by projection bias or shrinkage. Thus, I do wonder if the Slavs of East Central Europe are essentially a 50/50 mixture of early CWC and late GAC?”

A tu powrót do pierwszych kurhanów z Suvorovo i wschodniego przedgórza Karpat / zachodniego stepu nadczarnomorskiego, o czym NIKT nie chce jakoś od dawna poważnie rozmawiać…
Davidski said…
The funniest thing about Iosif Lazaridis’ Indo-Anatolian hypothesis is that it’s based on his confidence that there was a male mediated migration from Armenia to the steppe which gave rise to Yamnaya. I think he’s even been calling it a wave.
But there’s absolutely no evidence for such a migration, and even no reason to assume that it happened.

Davidski said…
Yep, the kurgan tradition moved from Eastern Europe to West Asia.
But David Reich et al. wanted to make Yamnaya a West Asian population so much that they even put the origin of kurgans in West Asia.

It’s far from certain that this is really a J2b. There is some sort of a J2a in an Eneolithic sample from the Lower Don, but this is basically a Steppe Maykop outlier and nothing directly to do with Yamnaya.
If Steppe Maykop outliers were in some important way ancestral to Yamnaya, then Lazaridis would have a point, but they’re not.
This is a very different phenomenon and, at best, might represent non-Indo-European influence in Late Proto-Indo-European.
