Yet they and their descendants would go on to transform Europe and much of Asia genetically, culturally and linguistically. Among the many innovations that these steppe migrants ushered in, scientists believe, are the Indo-European languages that are dominant in Europe today, and which are spoken by nearly half of humanity.

Location: “Mykhailivka, a village on the right bank of the River Dnieper in Ukraine, lies dangerously close to the front line of Russia’s war on its western neighbour. Seventy years ago, however, it was the site of an excavation by Ukrainian archaeologists. There, they discovered one of the earliest known settlements of the Yamnaya culture.”

Just going to point out the irony that modern Europeans are descended from migrants that infiltrated the Continent and interbred with the locals until their genes and culture were dominant.

How is that ironic to anyone who finished primary school? This is literally the case for every people except possibly a couple of tribes in Africa.

Haagel@lemmings.world on 05 May 2024 18:23 collapse

What is the irony? That Europeans are now stereotypically parochial?

White supremacists shit themselves to sleep worrying about “replacement theory,” which is basically that.

Anyone that isn’t a dumb, bigoted bastard just kind of shrugs at the idea that their grandkids might have tan skin.
