It has become very common for people, particularly from India but also from many other countries with identity complexes like "Latin" America, to use pathetic Yamnaya reconstructions or charts from the amateur and highly inaccurate Genetiker tool to prove that they were supposedly brown.. to project a 3300 BC population onto your own personal insecurities and invent a narrative where “brown Yamnaya conquered white EEF European women” saar/o algo to inflate your ego, that claim is false for several reasons.

As I said before, Genetiker garbage is one of the worst tools out there, and he himself admits that his prediction for that sample is poor. serious and testable academic tools like HIrisPlex-S exist. You just need to understand the HIrisPlex-S system instead of imagining things. The categories are biased toward lighter skin tones, and there aren’t many “very pale” people in the world to begin with.

The categories are biased towards lighter skin tones. There aren't many "very pale" people in the world. Also, categories like "Dark" don't represent what we generally consider "dark," but rather a specific range of numerical results, converted into a word. Do you understand? For example, something around 15 to 20% of modern Sicilians are classified as "Dark" according to this system. I think nobody would be surprised by this, but it's worth remembering that "Dark" also refers to a modern European ethnic skin tone in this tool.

Keep in mind what "dark" skin looks like in the HIrisPlex-S system that is used to predict phenotype in all these ancient DNA studies. I have my doubts how accurate the system is, but "dark" basically ranges between these two tones:

How accurate is HIrisPlex? You tell me. CM HIrisPlex-S patched for missing alleles giving an accuracy rate of 30%; i.e., coded for Uyghurs and Chinese for dark to black skin. But anyway.

Finally, it's also useful to note how many Europeans, not just Mediterranean ones, possess the skin tone cataloged as "intermediate" among the Yamnaya. It's a common "shade" throughout Europe since at least the Neolithic period, very common in Mediterranean countries and even in Poland.

They weren't "dark-skinned," nor did they resemble Indians or some insecure neo-Latin. They lived in Ukraine, had a European appearance, and were phenotypically described as European in these craniometric studies. And lastly, this obsession with conquering "white, blonde, GAC" women is false because: 1) the Yamnaya specifically had no direct contact with the GAC; it was the CWC; 2) most European farmers also had the same skin tone as the Yamnaya and the CWC.

I agree. Although not in terms of phenotype, limiting ourselves to skin tone issues, something like that. Perhaps even "lighter".

In fact, most people up until the middle of the Bronze Age had that appearance.

so, are you guys aware of how ridiculous the existence of darkwtich is as a whole? like, really, no archeologist, no medic, no geneticist, no scientist ever suggested the shit darkwitch suggest, is literally something that only was created as a cognitive dissonance... no. as a matter to discuss at all in 4chan becaus eof darkwitch spam, this is not a logical situation.
the consensus is clear; yamnaya were northern european related, more so were corded ware.
anatolian farmers were middle easterners and southern european.
ANE was a mostly west eurasian group related to upper paleolithic european natives and jomon, this group preceded amerindians and the northernmost europeans
india was conquered by sintasha, who were northern europeans as well.

these are simple consensus, there is nothing to argue here, the conclsusions are always clear, no rape fantasy, there is nothing to even discuss.
the whole argument is literally invented by darkwitch making convoluted charts and lying and people falling or even engaging into his shittalk, is literally like discussing against a guy talking about dragons
all studies and geneticists proved the nordicness of indoeuropeans and the superiority of white people. and now we are just getting our board shitted by an indian tranny that entered a meltdown state for 3 years because he can't cope with those simple facts

is simply insane. darkwitch created an alternate reality where we argue about anatolians being white or not because he needed to project somehow when literally all archeologists correctly state they were middle eastern and italic
the level of cognitive dissonance is simply insane, and its entirely a fabricated one attained through spam

I believe the old european brown is not the same as arabs / african admixture browns these days and rather more like the whites who can naturally tan really hard to where some even do have darker skin even without tan, while still having naturally light hair and eyes and Yamnaya was probably like that too.

Correct
See how it took me less than 20 minutes to understand how Hirisplex categorization works. The tool isn't very good for some modern populations either. See how it classifies high proportions of Mongolians, northern Chinese, and Siberians as "dark." It probably doesn't work so well with more divergent ancient populations either, and the older the population, the less accurate it will be. But it's what we have. I hope for better ones in the future. All these limitations are well understood by the tool's creators—it's all described in the manual. Literally. Lazadiris even specifically cited an anthology with the "Mediterranean skin tone," which, as you stated, is present in places like the Netherlands, as well as Poland and, to a lesser extent, the British Isles.

Indians are desperate after inevitably accepting that their language was brought by shepherds from the steppes who ultimately came from Europe, so they use Yamnaya and based it on Genetinker's shitty tables

Actually, "brown" isn't even the real point here. Fuck them Dravidians. My point is, was it a homogenous society? Probably not, if they were an empire that did lots of conquest. They would have accrued a large underclass of many ethnicities, and you're stupid if you think it's just "white vs brown" in this case. There are many distinct ethnicities that are shades of white and yellow, and skin color isn't the only distinguishing factor between races.

It probably was.

The Logkas samples also show IBD with Yamnaya samples. Now, if you're asking if their slaves had distinct origins, I can't answer with certainty, but I read with someone yesterday talking about how the Proto-Indo-Europeans had a word for slave and it was related to sedentary people.

I don't know why these mentally retarded white nationalists have such a problem admitting that WHG and the Yamnaya were indeed brown looking with much darker skin than Europeans today, whose lightness came through mixing with GAC and heavy selection for these traits in the Bronze and Iron Age. Yamnaya were also lactose intolerant. These things can change rapidly through selection, but they are mentally stuck in a 2015 racist blogspot level understanding of genetics and the Indo-European phenomenon thinking in memes of a blond haired blue eyed MS paint gigachad mounted on a horse swinging a sword in one hand and a jug of milk in the other. Brainrot. That isn't what happened and it's proven, WHG and Yamnaya did look brown. Now continue making yourselves look even more ridiculous than you are.

In reality...
>Daddy! Where are you?! Help! Someone help me. Has anyone seen my father??
Said the girl from the EEF, While fire and disturbing screams consumed a village. the girl's wounded father found her:
>My dear daughter, listen carefully, grab your brother and run as fast as you can, he said, trembling.
The frightened girl, crying and aware of what was happening, hugged her father as Srendy Stog or Yamnaya men approached shouting, wearing black wolf skins and under the influence of "plants". The father made one last attempt to defend his family, grabbed an axe and tried to stop the invaders. The girl fled with her father and, in the background, heard him scream. After minutes of escape, amidst death, pillaging and fire, the capture of slaves began. The girl, even trying to escape as much as possible, was found. She tried to flee, but her brother was taken from her and she was dragged into a caravan with other women. Other women are dragged into the forest, where only their piercing screams are heard. The girl knows what happened and all she can do is cry. For her father, brother, and mother.

Looking around, there are mothers crying. Wives crying. Fathers, sons, grandparents... brothers. All dead. Daughters stripped of their dignity. Families destroyed. And why exactly? Because of some 20s vandals and their gangs?

Sad, isn't it? These are the idiots you idolize. They never contributed *anything* to Europe, the Indo-Europeans are like those Middle Eastern and North African gangs in France and England. Wake up to life, damn it. There's no honor in that.

Okay, but you don't need to invoke a leftist academic here. The distribution of the Yamnaya suggests that they may have lived in relative peace, alongside farmers, since they did not prefer the same type of land. And don't forget what happened in the British Isles. If the Yamnaya settlers did not adapt in a way that allowed them to expand into non-steppe lands, their impact would have been self-limiting.

It clearly wasn't some vast sweeping conquest, the 1000 year timescale and things like Etruscans and Latins speaking an EEF and PIE-descended language despite being almost indistinguishable genetically prove that, but both sides of this were absurdly violent. IMO based on what I know about archaeology and how barbarian tribes in the classical era behaved is that aside from some sweeping conquests like the initial invasion of the Danubian Basin and the actual genocide that happened in Britain it was mostly a back and forth churning of peace and war where friendly tribes intermarried and stuff like >>18514124 is what happened to the loser regardless of who they were. The PIE side won out in the long term but both sides would only have been dimly aware of the PIE/EEF conflict we see looking back on it.

The problem is that these supposedly "friendly tribes" left no surviving languages and had their cultures replaced. So what happened to them? If they were truly allies, mixing while singing around campfires and sharing food, their disappearance wouldn't make sense.

The latest study on the Neolithic of France and Iberia noted that the appearance of steppe ancestry "coincided" with the Neolithic decline, even though the authors devoted only three paragraphs to Indo-Europeans. Strange, isn't it? Things were far more violent than post-1960s archaeologists and geneticists admit. The CWC literally burned forests in areas that were originally EEF territory to create pasture. Also remember: contrary to older assumptions, Indo-European migrations included women, not just wandering men.

>>18514304

Yes. It's a Indo-European tradition

>>18514346
Bingo.

The problem with modern archaeologists is that they expect to find mass graves containing thousands of people at every archaeological site before even considering the possibility of violent expansion. And when there are cases like Great Britain, this should simply be treated as an exception The most viable view would be to say that these migrations were indeed accompanied by violence although perhaps it wasn't only that. But now the real question is, what happened in the case of non-violence? Coexistence? CWC and GAC coexisted in Poland for a time, but eventually the latter was replaced, so exactly in these cases? We cannot appeal to a narrative of "interactions" when the EEF cultures were replaced and their languages are lost forever. Those settlements in Helladic Greece with fire signs, some link to Indo-European migration even though the Mycenaeans only had 15-20% steppe. Humans will always rape each other. That's generic.

Except that isn't true. I mentioned the Etruscans but other examples are the Sardinians, Raetians, Vascones, and maybe Minoans. You're basically making the opposite error, assuming it was all genocidal tribal warfare instead of none.

>The CWC literally burned forests in areas that were originally EEF territory to create pasture.
The timeline of this is not clear and the evidence base is weaker than you're treating it. It's equally possible the EEFs practiced slash-and-burn agriculture and their populations collapsed when they exhausted their farmland.

None of these languages can be definitively classified as “EEF.” Etruscan, for instance, exhibits a substantial Indo-European substrate, and Paleo-Sardinian is poorly attested beyond hydronyms and phytonyms. “Vasconic” is not an attested language; Howard Hayes Scullard suggested it may have been Indo-European, with plausible links to Illyrian and Celtic. The Minoan language may derive from a CHG or Anatolian source rather than an EEF one. It is important to note that the Minoans were not solely Aegean in origin, but rather a composite population of Anatolian Neolithic, Caucasus Hunter-Gatherer, and Peloponnesian Neolithic ancestry. Their could be related to any of these options.
>The timeline of this is not clear
Actually, the evidence is quite clear. During the Early Bronze Age, the Corded Ware engaged in large-scale forest burning across Northern Europe to create open grassland.

Even if that were not the case, the evidence presented above indicates that violence was far more prevalent than you want to believe. and it remains unexplained why these supposedly "friendly tribes" would have abandoned their languages and cultures.

Moreover, it is convenient to assume that these tribes necessarily represent the apennine nd Minoan peoples. The Etruscan and Rhaetic languages, if indeed related, are poor examples, given that Etruscan material culture derives from the (proto) Villanovan culture, directly derived from Urnfield,
