- Our papers, out today in @nature.com, show how ancient DNA from the Eneolithic and Bronze Age steppe points to a North Pontic origin of the Indo-European language family and a Caucasus-Lower Volga (CLV) origin of Indo-Anatolian (inclusive of the now extinct Anatolian languages). 1/
- "The genetic origin of the Indo-Europeans" describes our solution: a Caucasus-Lower Volga homeland of Proto-Indo-Anatolian speakers and a North Pontic (or Dnipro-Don) homeland of the Proto-Indo-Europeans which we identify as the Yamnaya. 2/ www.nature.com/articles/s41...
- "A genomic history of the North Pontic Region from the Neolithic to the Bronze Age" focuses on how CLV migrants crossed or settled the steppes north of the Black Sea, and mixed in distinct waves with its local farmers and hunter-gatherers. 3/ www.nature.com/articles/s41...

- Colin Renfrew's accomplishments in so many fields are many. I only met him once and what I most admired about him was how receptive to new evidence and ready to re-evaluate his own ideas he was. A true giant of world archaeology has passed away. www.ekathimerini.com/news/1254364...

- Reposted by Iosif LazaridisPreprint alert 🧬! We explore population history in the N Eurasian forest/forest-steppe zones spanning the Mesolithic/Neolithic/Bronze Age. Esp interesting is the correlation early Uralic speakers w/expansion of Seima-Turbino metallurgical traditions. (PS: work led by bluesky-less colleagues!)
