       [quote]The most violent group of people who ever lived:
       Horse-riding Yamnaya tribe who used their huge height and
       muscular build to brutally murder and invade their way across
       Europe more than 4,000 years ago
       ...
       They would murder men and sire their own children so that within
       a few generations the presence of the previous societies is all
       but eradicated.
       ...
       Yamnaya people arrived in Eastern Europe approximately 5,000
       years ago and their culture and customs spread rapidly to both
       the east and the west.
       They then interbred with the Corded Ware people in central
       Europe, with later generations inheriting a significant amount
       of Yamnaya DNA.
       ...
       Ancient DNA reveals these migrants were well nourished, tall and
       muscular. Some archaeologists also argue that the warrior tribe
       consisted of skilled horsemen.
       'It looks like they lived mostly on meat and milk products,'
       says Professor Kristiansen.
       ...
       This theory is backed up by David Reich at Harvard Medical
       School who is due to release a piece of research stating the
       Yumnaya orchestrated a systematic genocide of Neolithic men.
       ...
       Forty per cent of all males had a Y chromosome linked to
       Yumnaya, indicating after the cultures met, only Yumnaya men
       were procreating.
       The collision of these two populations was not a friendly one,
       not an equal one, but one where the males from outside were
       displacing local males and did so almost completely,' Reich told
       New Scientist Live in September.
       'It's the only way to explain that no male Neolithic lines
       survived.'[/quote]
       This could account for why lactose tolerance became so common in
       the region so quickly: the population of milk-drinking men
       massacred the population of non-milk-drinking men! I am so proud
       to be lactose intolerant!
       It also explains why I have always instinctively despised
       mesomorphs. And equestrian sports, of course (as I have
       mentioned many times in the past).
       One day we will have to thoroughly de-Turanize the gene pool.
       The article also includes an appendix about Aryan diffusion:
       [quote]The Neolithic Revolution was the world's first verifiable
       revolution in agriculture.
       It began in Britain between about 5000 BC and 4500 BC but spread
       across Europe from origins in Syria and Iraq between about 11000
       BC and 9000 BC.
       The period saw the widespread transition of many disparate human
       cultures from nomadic hunting and gathering practices to ones of
       farming and building small settlements.
       The revolution was responsible for turning small groups of
       travellers into settled communities who built villages and
       towns.
       Some cultures used irrigation and made forest clearings to
       better their farming techniques.
       Others stored food for times of hunger, and farming eventually
       created different roles and divisions of labour in societies as
       well as trading economies.[/quote]
       There is also a link to a New Scientist article that apparently
       goes into more detail, but requires subscription to read (below
       is all that I could get from the preview):

       [quote]THE iconic sarsen stones at Stonehenge were erected some
       4500 years ago. Although the monument’s original purpose is
       still disputed, we now know that within a few centuries it
       became a memorial to a vanished people. By then, almost every
       Briton, from the south coast of England to the north-east tip of
       Scotland, had been wiped out by incomers. It isn’t clear exactly
       why they disappeared so rapidly. But a picture of the people who
       replaced them is emerging.
       The migrants’ ultimate source was a group of livestock herders
       called the Yamnaya who occupied the Eurasian steppe north of the
       Black Sea and the Caucasus mountains. Britain wasn’t their only
       destination. Between 5000 and 4000 years ago, the Yamnaya and
       their descendants colonised swathes of Europe, leaving a genetic
       legacy that persists to this day. Their arrival coincided with
       profound social and cultural changes. Burial practices shifted
       dramatically, a warrior class appeared, and there seems to have
       been a sharp upsurge in lethal violence. “I’ve become
       increasingly convinced there must have been a kind of genocide,”
       says Kristian Kristiansen at the University of Gothenburg,
       Sweden. As he and others piece together the story, one question
       resounds: were the Yamnaya the most murderous people in history?
       Before about 5000 years ago, Neolithic Europe was inhabited by
       people much like those who raised Stonehenge. They were farmers
       with an urge to work together and build large stone structures.
       “It looks like these people were quite communal,” says
       Kristiansen. And that community spirit continued into the
       afterlife: many of …[/quote]

       victory can still be ours.

       I have watched WN fashion shift over the years from previously
       preferring to self-identify with Ice Age Giants to now
       preferring to self-identify with Pelasgians/Vanir. I noted this
       all the way back here:

       -century-pop-culture/comment-page-2/#comment-170659
       I might as well repaste the enemy stuff here directly:
       [quote]The author views the Trojan Wars as an unconscious
       metaphor for the clash of the civilizations that resulted from
       the arrival of the Indo-Europeans in the eastern Mediterranean.
       Instead of the meeting of Achilles and Hector, “it is a deathly
       confrontation of two ways of understanding the world.” The
       language of the Iliad symbolizes this clash: words like “city,”
       “battlements,” “walls,” and “gates” are juxtaposed against the
       “flatlands,” the “open plain” and the “pedion,” over which
       Achilles runs like “a being radiant with horror, bringing evil
       and pain to men.”[xiii] For the author no two worlds could be
       more different than “the grasslands of the steppes north of the
       Black Sea [the Indo-European homeland] and the craggy broken
       boundaries of the Mediterranean.”[xiv] This dialectical tension
       between steppe and city-dweller is reflected in a key Homeric
       theme: the Greeks’ deep “distrust of the potential for
       unmanliness in the city, whose beauties and order are
       nevertheless deeply desirable.”[xv]
       …
       He asserts that: “Only in reference to Indo-European
       aristocratic berserkers … can we speak in Hegelian terms of a
       fight to the death for the sake of pure prestige.”[xxi]
       Prestige-motivated fighting pervades both Homeric epics. In the
       Iliad the first fighting does not begin until 2,380 lines into
       the story, but thereafter the blood flows, increasingly, with an
       increasing intensity and savagery, until, as Nicolson notes,
       “the climax comes in the crazed berserker frenzy of Achilles’s
       grief-fuelled rampage through the Trojans. The culmination is
       the death of Hector, when steppe-man finally meets and kills the
       man of the city.”[xxii]
       …
       Achilles, the “city destroyer” who is the ultimate symbol of an
       Indo-European warrior elite that was “ferociously male in its
       focus, with male gods and a cultivation of violence, with no
       great attention paid to dwellings or public buildings, but a
       fascination with weaponry, speed and violence.”[xxv] Even in the
       world of the Iliad, Achilles’ homeland in Thessaly is further
       north than that of any other character. For Nicolson, “Achilles
       carries a pre-southern, pre-urban, pre-complicated world of
       purity and integrity within him.”[xxvi]
       The willingness of Achilles to defy the authority of King
       Agamemnon is certainly illustrative of Duchesne’s culture of
       “aristocratic egalitarianism” where a leader is regarded as a
       “first among equals.” It is only natural, therefore, that
       Achilles “cannot tolerate the overarching kingliness of
       Agamemnon.”[xxvii] When Odysseus intercedes between Agamemnon
       and Achilles he suppresses the former’s injunction for Achilles
       to “submit himself to me, since I am so much more kingly,”
       because he knows that “the steppe consciousness of Achilles will
       not accept an overking.”[xxviii][/quote]
       [quote]the classical Greeks were baffled by Homer’s dislike of
       fish which they regarded as the ultimate delicacy. They couldn’t
       comprehend why Homer’s heroes ate beef when they were so often
       located next to prime fishing spots. For Nicolson, this contempt
       for fish was “likely a steppe land inheritance, from the time
       when a large herd of meaty animals was one of the identifying
       marks of a king or hero.”[v]
       The heroes of the Indo-European warrior world were men whose
       individuality was commemorated in large single burials, often
       under prominent mounds called “kurgans” on highly visible places
       among grazing grounds cleared for their herds. Meat mattered in
       this warrior world, largely as a symbol of portable wealth when
       alive, and for feasting when dead and cooked.
       …
       According to the author: “Homer is full of half-buried memories
       like this of that northern past which hint at a
       non-Mediterranean world, far from water, far from cities,
       land-locked, dominated by an enormous sky, horse-rich, focused
       on flocks and herds and the meat they provide, violent, noble
       and heroic. This steppe-world is the place from which Achilles
       comes. It is not the Homeric foreground, because Homer is
       inconceivable without sailing ships, cities and the sea —
       without everything that is bound up with the name of “Troy”:
       civilization, the sea-borne raid, the connection to the east —
       but that other northern place lurks as a kind of murmured
       ancestral layer, a sub-conscious.[vii]“[/quote]
       This shift has occurred in concord with the extent to which they
       have increasingly Judaized their own thinking via incorporating
       extreme sexism and homophobia into WN (previously purely racist
       without being particularly sexist/homophobic) to create the
       Alt-Right.
       ---
       This perfectly coincides with shift in WN ideology from Neo
       Nazism to Turanism. For example weev (jew) admits that he is not
       a national socialist, but instead identifies more with franco
       (jew). .

       [quote]Due to certain reasons, the culture of nomadic societies
       was formed as a militant civilization. Most researchers express
       different points of view in regards to the emergence of this
       type of civilization. A prominent scholar Kradina, for example,
       in her article entitled "Nomads in the world-historical process"
       mentions about the aspects of the development of the nomadic
       society as such: "The need for the unification of nomads arises
       only in the case of wars for the resources of existence, the
       organization of plundering of farmers or expansion into their
       territory, in establishing control over trade routes. In this
       situation, the folding of a complex political organization of
       nomads in the form of nomadic empires is both a product of
       integration and a consequence of the conflict (between nomads
       and farmers)”.
       However, it must be mentioned that for a successful waging of
       wars, a powerful military organization was needed. Researchers
       managed to notice an interesting circumstance that the degree of
       centralization of nomads was directly proportional to the
       magnitude of the neighbouring agricultural civilization.
       Another model of political genesis, applicable to the origin of
       the steppe empires, is "commercial". Its main premise is that
       foreign trade exchange with the subsequent redistribution of
       rare and prestigious goods among subjects is an important
       component of the power of the leaders and rulers of early
       states. The stability of the steppe empires directly depended on
       the ability of the highest authority to organize the receipt of
       silk, agricultural products, handicrafts and exquisite jewellery
       from sedentary territories. Since these products could not be
       produced in a cattle-breeding farm, obtaining it by force or
       extortion was the primary responsibility of the ruler of the
       nomadic society. As the only mediator between China and the
       Steppe, the ruler of the nomadic society had the opportunity to
       control the redistribution of the extraction received from
       China, and thereby he strengthened his own power. This made it
       possible to maintain an empire that could not exist on the basis
       of an extensive pastoral economy.
       All this predetermined the dual nature of the "steppe empires".
       Outwardly, they looked despotic, conquering state-like
       societies, since they were created to seize the surplus product
       from outside the Steppe. But from within, the nomadic empires
       remained based on tribal links without establishing taxation and
       exploitation of pastoralists. The power of the ruler of the
       steppe society, as a rule, was not based on the possibility of
       applying legitimate violence, but on his ability to organize
       military campaigns and redistribute revenues from trade, tribute
       and raids to neighbouring countries" [1].
       The self-identification of the Kazakhs was built on the basis of
       a rigid value-based antithetical "us-them", where "us" - is the
       universal norm and the model, whereas "them" - any and all
       settled agricultural people and cultures is a paradigmatic set
       of anomalies. The attitude of the nomads to the culture and way
       of life of settled agricultural peoples was selectively
       critical, if not frankly nihilistic. In one of the legends about
       the origin of the three Kazakh zhuzes, recorded by Mashhur
       Zhussup Kopeev, the jigits sent to conquer new lands were so
       responsive to the envoys of the khan on the command given to
       them to return: "Do not tell us about the return and do not come
       back yourself. Why should you go back to the region where the
       horses grow old at five, and the jigits at twenty-five, where
       only the chicken is known from the birds, and from the lessons -
       plucking the grass, where the men are like nags, and women - on
       their minds, where they change Malakhai to the skull-cap, where
       the knife is changed to a spoon, where there is no other joy
       like serving Sarts, carrying salt in the summer, and wood and
       coal in the summer, and serving Sarts, whose vaunted upbringing
       consists only in eating a wheat cake and drinking with millet
       soup, at best, being content with the thigh of a tiny quail"
       [2].
       The core of the social relations of nomads and the basic value
       of a worldview is a kin-generational principle, which is the
       fundamental principle of self-identification of the individual
       with both the community and the natural habitat, primarily from
       the territories as a continuation of one's natural being
       [8].[/quote]
       Nothing has changed. Literally nothing. Even rightist
       stereotypes of leftists today ("soyboy" etc.) are thematically
       identical to the old nomadic stereotypes of peasants.
       About the term "Sarts":
       en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sart
       [quote]It is thus very difficult to attach a single ethnic or
       even linguistic meaning to the term "Sart". Historically the
       various Turkic and Persian peoples of Central Asia were
       identified mostly by their lifestyle, rather than by any
       notional ethnic or even linguistic difference. The Kazakhs,
       Kyrgyz, and Turkmens were nomads, herding across steppes,
       mountains and sand deserts, respectively. The settled Turks and
       Tajiks, on the other hand, were Sarts, as they either lived in
       cities such as Khiva, Bukhara or Samarkand, or they lived in
       rural agricultural communities.[/quote]

       Early Bronze Age to the Mongol Period. More than three-quarters
       of the individuals tested revealed evidence of dairy
       consumption.
       The extensive nature of the milk consumption suggests the
       practice was introduced even earlier than 3,000 B.C.
       Previous genetic surveys have linked the people of prehistoric
       Mongolia with herder populations of the western steppe. The
       connection suggests populations from Russia's Atlai mountains
       likely brought dairy pastoralism with them as they traveled
       east.[/quote]

       species, such as cattle, sheep, or goats.
       This is the earliest evidence of milk consumption ever to have
       been identified in East Asia.

       This is why I hate the Western category "Mongoloid", which in
       accurate usage should only refer to eastern steppe Turanians,
       but in mainstream usage has been used to refer to (in many cases
       negligibly Turanian) West Pacific populations as a whole. (The
       Western category "Caucasoid" is not much better in this regard
       either, for equivalent reasons.)
       The truth is that eastern steppe Turanians and western steppe
       Turanians clearly are more evolutionarily similar to each other
       than to their respective non-Turanian neighbours.
       ---
       Regarding Turanists in India, Iran, etc., I would say it is
       incorrect to refer to Turanists as "nationalists" since their
       allegiance is to the Turanian diaspora (including from countries
       other than their own), not to any nation-state or folk, similar
       to Jews. They are tribalists, plain and simple.

       [quote]Towards the end of the Neolithic period, the emergence of
       archaeological finds from Corded Ware Complex cultural groups
       (CWC) coincides with the arrival of new ancestry components from
       the Pontic-Caspian steppe, but exactly when these new peoples
       arrived and how they mixed with indigenous Europeans remains
       unclear.
       To find out, an international team led by researchers from the
       University of Tübingen, the University of Bern and the Max
       Planck Institute for the Science of Human History (MPI-SHH)
       sequenced the genomes of 96 individuals from 13 Neolithic and
       early Bronze Age sites in Switzerland, southern Germany and the
       Alsace region of France. They detect the arrival of this new
       ancestry as early as 2800 BCE, and suggest that genetic
       dispersal was a complex process, involving the gradual mixture
       of parallel, highly genetically structured societies. The
       researchers also identified one of the oldest known Europeans
       that was lactose tolerant, dating to roughly 2100 BCE.
       "Remarkably, we identified several female individuals without
       any detectable steppe-related ancestry up to 1000 years after
       this ancestry arrives in the region," says lead author Anja
       Furtwängler of the University of Tübingen's Institute for
       Archeological Sciences.
       ...
       These results show that CWC was a relatively homogenous
       population that occupied large parts of Central Europe in the
       early Bronze Age, but they also show that populations without
       steppe-related ancestry existed parallel to the CWC cultural
       groups for hundreds of years.[/quote]
       This is what we need to get back to.

       [quote]nomadic cultures leave only limited archaeological
       evidence of their lifeways behind—mortuary mounds with
       occasional animal-bone offerings are the prime archaeological
       feature of the Eastern Steppe. Now a scientist interested in
       reconstructing ancient diets and understanding the evolution of
       the human microbiome has begun to assemble new types of evidence
       suggesting that the ability to build a succession of empires on
       the Eurasian Steppe has been predicated, at least in part, on
       dairying: the widespread production and consumption of horse,
       sheep, goat, cow, and other milks and milk products that
       sustained and tied nomadic tribes together culturally across
       vast distances.
       ...
       In new research described in Nature Ecology & Evolution,
       Warinner and her coauthors use dental calculus to show that
       around 3000 b.c., ruminant dairying rapidly spread thousands of
       kilometers across the Eurasian Steppe, from the north Caucusus
       region near the Black Sea to as far east as Mongolia, in the
       span of only a few centuries. There, the grasslands, although
       inhospitable to grain agriculture, provided abundant nutrition
       for grazing animals and supported the production of a wide
       variety of dairy-based foods for humans.
       ...
       the use of horses led to a transformative expansion of dairying
       culture. Horses travel farther and faster than other ruminants,
       she points out, thereby enhancing herding capacity, access to
       pasturage, and the control of larger territories. And in winter,
       they dig instinctually for snow-covered grasses, exposing it for
       sheep, goats, and cattle, which would otherwise starve.
       “Horses,” explains Warinner, “made the whole dairy-based economy

       lactase-persistent individuals had more children or,
       alternatively, those children had better chances of survival
       than those without this trait." The researchers calculate a
       remarkable selective advantage: "In each generation
       lactase-persistent individuals have a six percent greater chance
       of surviving to reproductive age than non-lactase-persistent
       individuals," added Professor Joachim Burger.[/quote]
       Guess who these were!
       [quote]Back in 2007, Burger and his team established that almost
       none of the first sedentary farmers in Europe were
       lactase-persistent. "It is astonishing that at the time of the
       battle at the Tollense, more than 4,000 years after the
       introduction of agriculture in Europe, lactase persistence in
       adults was still so rare," said Burger.[/quote]
       It is not astonishing at all. Aryans do not even drink milk, so
       what reason had we to evolve lactose tolerance?
       [quote]However, there is as yet no definitive answer to the
       question: Why did being able to digest the sugar in milk after
       infancy provide such a big evolutionary advantage?" With milk
       being a high-energy, relatively uncontamined drink, its
       ingestion may have provided greater chances of survival during
       food shortages or when supplies of drinking water were
       contaminated. Particularly during early childhood, in the years
       shortly after weaning, this factor often may have been decisive
       amongst prehistoric populations," Burger concluded.[/quote]
       Anyone want to bet the Turanian milk-drinkers were the ones who
       deliberately contaminated our water supply, knowing they would
       be unaffected by it?

       and their descendants, including the communities associated with
       the Corded Ware culture.”
       ...
       According to Dr. Juras, the population associated with the
       Strzyżów culture has genetically most in common with steppe
       communities.
       The descendants of people associated with the Strzyżów
       culture could have come to the lands of present-day
       south-eastern Poland with the first migration from the steppe
       during the late Neolithic. But they formed an isolated
       population that developed independently of the Corded Ware
       culture community. It is also possible that later in the Bronze
       Age there was an additional migration of people from the

       The genetic data also pointed to an Early Bronze Age expansion
       of pastoralist herding populations from the Western Steppe into
       Mongolia, the team reported. By the Late Bronze Age, meanwhile,
       Mongolian populations were marked by ancestry from three

       encompasses the presumed transition from wild to domestic horses
       (4000 to 3000 BCE), shows the rapid and large-scale introduction
       of domestic horses at the end of the third millennium BCE. Thus,
       our results argue strongly against autochthonous independent
       domestication of horses in Anatolia.
       ...
       Because northern Eurasia, and in particular the Pontic-Caspian
       steppe, is currently the most likely origin for the domestic
       horses brought into Anatolia, there are two possible

       Although the cultural processes initiating the dispersal of

       Guess who?
       De-Turanization should include phasing out equestrian sports.
  HTML https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equestrianism#Criticism_of_horses_in_sport
       [quote]Horse racing is a popular equestrian sport which is
       practiced in many nations around the world. It is inextricably
       associated with gambling, where in certain events, stakes can
       become very high. Despite its illegality in most competitions,
       these conditions of extreme competitiveness can lead to the use
       of performing-enhancing drugs and extreme training techniques,
       which can result in negative side effects for the horses'
       well-being. The races themselves have also proved dangerous to
       the horses – especially steeplechasing, which requires the horse
       to jump hurdles whilst galloping at full speed. This can result
       in injury or death to the horse, as well as the jockey.[48] A
       study by animal welfare group Animal Aid revealed that
       approximately 375 racehorses die yearly, with 30% of these
       either during or as a result of injuries from a race.[49] The
       report also highlighted the increasing frequency of race-related
       illnesses, including bleeding lungs (exercise-induced pulmonary
       hemorrhage) and gastric ulcers.[49]
       Animal rights groups are also primarily concerned that certain
       sports or training exercises may cause unnecessary pain or
       injuries to horse athletes. Some specific training or showing
       practices are so widely condemned that they have been made
       illegal at the national level and violations can incur criminal
       penalties. The most well-known is soring, a practice of applying
       a caustic ointment just above the hooves of a Tennessee Walking
       Horse to make it pick up its feet higher. However, in spite of a
       federal law in the United States prohibiting this practice and
       routine inspections of horse shows by inspectors from the United
       States Department of Agriculture, soring is still widespread and
       difficult to eliminate.[50] Some events themselves are also
       considered so abusive that they are banned in many countries.
       Among these are horse-tripping, a sport where riders chase and
       rope a loose-running horse by its front legs, throwing it to the
       ground.[51][/quote]

       Yamnaya Culture and the Origin of the Germanic Tribes
       By: guest5 Date: February 17, 2021, 3:52 pm
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       [quote]The Yamnaya culture (/ˈjamnaja/), also known as the
       Yamnaya Horizon,[2] Yamna culture, Pit Grave culture or Ochre
       Grave culture, was a late Copper Age to early Bronze Age
       archaeological culture of the region between the Southern Bug,
       Dniester, and Ural rivers (the Pontic steppe), dating to
       3300–2600 BC.[3] Its name derives from its characteristic burial
       tradition: Я́мная
       (romanization: yamnaya) is a Russian adjective that means
       'related to pits (yama)', and these people used to bury their
       dead in tumuli (kurgans) containing simple pit chambers. "Yamna"
       is the name that is derived from the same word in Ukrainian
       (ямна, romanization: yamna).
       The people of the Yamnaya culture were likely the result of a
       genetic admixture between the descendants of Eastern European
       Hunter-Gatherers[a] and people related to hunter-gatherers from
       the Caucasus.[4] People with this ancestral component are known
       as Western Steppe Herders.[5] Their material culture was very
       similar to the Afanasevo culture, and the populations of both
       cultures are genetically indistinguishable.[1] They lived
       primarily as nomads, with a chiefdom system and wheeled carts
       that allowed them to manage large herds.
       They are also closely connected to Final Neolithic cultures,
       which later spread throughout Europe and Central Asia,
       especially the Corded Ware people and the Bell Beaker culture,
       as well as the peoples of the Sintashta, Andronovo, and Srubnaya
       cultures. Back migration from Corded Ware also contributed to
       Sintashta and Andronovo.[6] In these groups, several aspects of
       the Yamnaya culture are present.[b] Genetic studies have also
       indicated that these populations derived large parts of their
       ancestry from the steppes.[1][7][8][9]
       The Yamnaya culture is identified with the late
       Proto-Indo-Europeans, and is the strongest candidate for the
       Urheimat (original homeland) of the Proto-Indo-European
       language. [/quote]
       [quote]According to Mallory (1999), "The origin of the Yamnaya
       culture is still a topic of debate," with proposals for its
       origins pointing to both Khvalynsk and Sredny Stog.[13] The
       Khvalynsk culture (4700–3800 BCE)[14] (middle Volga) and the
       Don-based Repin culture (ca.3950–3300 BCE)[15] in the eastern
       Pontic-Caspian steppe, and the closely related Sredny Stog
       culture (c. 4500–3500 BCE) in the western Pontic-Caspian steppe,
       preceded the Yamnaya culture (3300–2500 BCE).[16][17]
       According to Anthony (2007), the Yamnaya culture (3300–2600 BCE)
       originated in the Don–Volga area at ca. 3400 BCE,[18][3]
       preceded by the middle Volga-based Khvalynsk culture and the
       Don-based Repin culture (c. 3950–3300 BC),[15][3] arguing that
       late pottery from these two cultures can barely be distinguished
       from early Yamnaya pottery.[19] Earlier continuity from
       eneolithic but largely hunter-gatherer Samara culture and
       influences from the more agricultural Dnieper–Donets II are
       apparent.
       Alternatively, Parpola (2015) relates both the Corded ware
       culture and the Yamnaya culture to the late Tripolye
       culture.[20] He hypothesizes that "the Tripolye culture was
       taken over by PIE speakers by c. 4000 BCE,"[21] and that in its
       final phase the Tripolye culture expanded to the steppes,
       morphing into various regional cultures which fused with the
       late Sredny Stog pastoralist cultures. This gave rise to the
       Yamnaya culture.[22]
       According to Anthony (2007), the early Yamnaya horizon spread
       quickly across the Pontic–Caspian steppes between c. 3400 and
       3200 BC:[18]
       The spread of the Yamnaya horizon was the material
       expression of the spread of late Proto-Indo-European across the
       Pontic–Caspian steppes.[23]
       [...] The Yamnaya horizon is the visible archaeological
       expression of a social adjustment to high mobility – the
       invention of the political infrastructure to manage larger herds
       from mobile homes based in the steppes.[24]
       According to Pavel Dolukhanov (1996) the emergence of the
       Pit-Grave culture represents a social development of various
       local Bronze Age cultures, representing "an expression of social
       stratification and the emergence of chiefdom-type nomadic social
       structures", which in turn intensified inter-group contacts
       between essentially heterogeneous social groups.[25]
       In its western range, it was succeeded by the Catacomb culture
       (2800–2200 BC); in the east, by the Poltavka culture (2700–2100
       BC) at the middle Volga. These two cultures were followed by the
       Srubnaya culture (18th–12th century BC). [/quote]

       [quote]Near East population
       See also: Maykop culture, Kura–Araxes culture, and Leyla-Tepe
       culture
       The Near East population were most likely hunter-gatherers from
       the Caucasus (CHG),[31] though one study suggested that farmers
       with a CHG component dated to the Chalcolithic era in what is
       now Iran may be a better fit for the Yamnaya's Near Eastern
       descent.[35]
       Jones et al. (2015) analyzed genomes from males from western
       Georgia, in the Caucasus, from the Late Upper Palaeolithic
       (13,300 years old) and the Mesolithic (9,700 years old). These
       two males carried Y-DNA haplogroup: J* and J2a. The researchers
       found that these Caucasus hunters were probably the source of
       the Near Eastern DNA in the Yamnaya.[4] Their genomes showed
       that a continued mixture of the Caucasians with Middle Eastern
       took place up to 25,000 years ago, when the coldest period in
       the last Ice Age started.[4]
       An analysis carried out by Gallego-Llorente et al. (2016),
       concludes that Iranian populations are not a likelier source of
       the 'southern' component in the Yamnaya than Caucasus
       hunter-gatherers.[36] [/quote]
       [quote]Genetic relationship with the Catacomb culture
       A genetic study published in August 2014 examined the DNA of the
       remains of a number of individuals from the Yamnaya culture and
       the Catacomb culture, who succeeded the Yamnaya culture as the
       dominant force on the Pontic steppe. Catacomb people were found
       to have much higher frequencies of the maternal haplogroups U5
       and U4 than people of the Yamnaya culture. Haplogroups U5 and U4
       are typical of Western Hunter-Gatherers and Eastern
       Hunter-Gatherers. A generic similarity between Catacomb people
       and northern hunter-gatherers, particularly the people of the
       Pitted Ware culture of southern Scandinavia, was detected. It
       was suggested that the Catacomb people and the Yamnaya people
       were not as genetically admixed as previously believed.
       Interestingly, the modern population of Ukraine was found to be
       more closely related to people of the Yamnaya culture than
       people of the Catacomb culture.[37] [/quote]
       [quote]Haplogroups
       Haplogroup R1b is the most common Y-DNA haplogroup found among
       both the Yamnaya and modern-day Western Europeans.[1][7]
       Mathieson (2015) analyzed twelve individuals ascribed to the
       Yamna culture. Eleven belonged to haplogroup R1b, specifically
       to the R1b-L23 subclade, while one belonged to haplogroup
       I2a2a1b1b.[8]
       Mathieson (2018) analysed a Yamnaya male in Bulgaria. He carried
       haplogroup I2a2a1b1b.[38]
       Wang (2019) analyzed four Yamnaya individuals from the Caucasus.
       One male carried the paternal R1b1a1a2. With regards to mtDNA,
       three carried U5a1 or subclades of it, while one carried
       T2a1.[39] [/quote]
       [quote]Physical characteristics
       Examination of physical remains of the Yamnaya people has
       determined that they were Europoid, tall, and massively built.
       Their cephalic index varies depending on the region, with
       brachycephaly being prevalent in its southern and southeastern
       areas, and dolichocephaly being prevalent in its northeastern
       areas.[e]
       The genetic basis of a number of physical features of the
       Yamnaya people were ascertained by the ancient DNA (aDNA)
       studies conducted by Haak et al. (2015), Wilde et al. (2014) and
       Mathieson et al. (2015): They were genetically tall (phenotypic
       height is determined by both genetics and environmental
       factors), overwhelmingly dark-eyed (brown), dark-haired and had
       a skin colour that was moderately light, though somewhat darker
       than that of the average modern European.[8][41] Despite their
       pastoral lifestyle, there was little evidence of lactase
       persistence.[7] [/quote]
