I am very interested in the movemente and spreading of languages between 5th and 3rd millennium.<br />Thanks.alex demontishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15806629047823059313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7785493.post-90987109519233254542012-10-05T18:14:12.566+03:002012-10-05T18:14:12.566+03:00Finally, a Y paper that dates nodes of the tree us...Finally, a Y paper that dates nodes of the tree using high resolution complete sequences! Despite the well-grounded caution of the authors in dating S116-R1b1a2a1a1b, I would tend to see the lower estimates (4300-4500 bp using the rho methods) as more accurate on account of ancient Y DNA results in Western Europe and due to the simplicity of rho estimates that appeals to my mathematician's mind. If so, this might confirm the wide-spread idea that S116 expands and perhaps even occurs in the Chalcolithic/Early Bronze Age of West Europe. The implications of this estimate for the linguistics and archaeology of Western Europe, if true, are enormous.roykinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02355409700701839510noreply@blogger.com
