[QUOTE]Originally posted by Tyrannohotep: [QB] The finding of Y-DNA E in some of the ancient South Asian samples aside... [QUOTE]Instead, Steppe communities integrated farther south throughout the 2nd millennium BCE, and we show that they mixed with [qb]a more southern population that we document at multiple sites as outlier individuals exhibiting a distinctive mixture of ancestry related to Iranian agriculturalists and South Asian hunter-gathers. We call this group Indus Periphery[/qb] because they were found at sites in cultural contact with the Indus Valley Civilization (IVC) and along its northern fringe, and also because they were genetically similar to post-IVC groups in the Swat Valley of Pakistan.[/QUOTE]I've felt for a while now that the actual Indus Valley people would be at least predominantly Ancestral South Indian (ASI) since the first admixture event between ASI and Ancestral North Indian (ANI) has been dated sometime after the IVC/Vedic period transition. The finding that people immediately to the northwest of the IVC territory had ASI ancestry in addition to Iranian would be consistent with this, since it would show that ASI once spread further north than it does today. Any thoughts on this? [/QB][/QUOTE]
