The Yamnaya archaeological complex appeared around 3300BCE across the steppes north of Black and Caspian Seas, by 3000BCE reached its maximal extent from Hungary in west to Kazakhstan east. To localize ancestral geographical origins among diverse Eneolithic people that preceded them, we studied ancient DNA data 428 individuals which 299 are reported for first time, demonstrating three previously unknown genetic clines. First, a “Caucasus-Lower Volga” (CLV) Cline suffused with Caucasus...
Abstract The North Eurasian forest and forest-steppe zones have sustained millennia of sociocultural connections among northern peoples. We present genome-wide ancient DNA data for 181 individuals from this region spanning the Mesolithic, Neolithic Bronze Age. find that Early to Mid-Holocene hunter-gatherer populations across southern forest-steppes Northern Eurasia can be characterized by a continuous gradient ancestry remained stable millennia, ranging fully West in Baltic East Asian...
Abstract The Eurasian Bronze Age (BA) has been described as a period of substantial human migrations, the emergence pastoralism, horse domestication, and development metallurgy. This study focuses on two north sites sharing Siberian genetic ancestry. One sites, Rostovka, is associated with Seima-Turbino (ST) phenomenon (~2200-1900 BCE) that characterized by elaborate metallurgical objects found throughout Northern Eurasia. profiles Rostovka individuals vary widely along forest-tundra cline...

From the end of 4th millennium BC, a new proto-Caucasian population that characterized Afanasyevo culture spread in interior regions Asia. This contrasted with intermediate Mongoloid-Caucasoid anthropological appearance local Asian populations. The bearers from Altai and Khangai are distinguished by largest body stature among ancient human groups Eurasia. craniological osteometrical differences populations likely related adaptation migrant people to harsh bio-climatic conditions mountainous...
The present work addresses the issues of absolute and relative chronology early burials at Firsovo-XI burial ground on right bank Upper Ob River. Description four site results their AMS 14C dating are reported, alongside with cultural chronological analogies among contem-poraneous monuments Altai. Eight places were discovered Firsovo-XI, including five single graves, two double graves one collective burial. arranged in rows direction from northwest to southeast. deceased oriented heads north...
The results of a craniometric study the skull man from destroyed burial on territory ground Upper Volga variant Fatyanovo culture are published. It belongs to long-headed hyperdolichocrane very Caucasoid anthropological type with moderate latitudinal parameters facial structure, characterizing physical appearance population culture. To verify assumption different cultural and chronological affiliation cranium, principal component analysis was carried out. includes individual measurements...
The article analyzes the craniometric features of population Afanasevo culture Northwestern Altai and Central Mongolia, taking into account previously identified molecular genetic relationship two individuals from burials separated by a distance 1410 km. study confirmed belonging Afanasiev populations to Proto-European anthropological type Eastern European origin, within which Mongolia finds greatest similarity. On basis studied source base, some morphological are outlined, may reflect...
The authors investigates the connection between uneven allocation of sites Afanasievo archaeological culture in Altai Mountains region and system their economic activity. A wide variety local climatic conditions is a characteristic feature for region. mapping monuments within zones led to conclusion: inhabitants chose areas with possibility all-year-round pasture sheep settlement. Sheep farming was base There were lot requirements pastures. Some satisfied requirements, but they had harsh...
Recent studies show that, in the 3rd millennium BC, highlands basin of upper reaches Khovd (Kobdo) River constituted a ritual zone, which was particular importance for population inhabiting western foothills Mongolian Altai Mountains. Its cultural singularity due to so-called Chemurchek phenomenon — set characteristics West European origin, appeared there no later than 2700–2600 BC. Three large-scale complexes-‘shrines’ attributed this period were discovered area Lake Dayan Nuur. Excavations...
