QPADM model cline for 2 kits

 When ran using QPADM model the following model produced good cline over a range of local kits

Cline 1

The model shows Italy_Tarquinia_Monterozzi_IA_oLevant Vs ASI having a clear opposite complementary trend. Jarawa samples show high Italy_Tarquinia_Monterozzi at 57% and South Brahmin-2 shows lowest at 18.32%.

Cline 2

This model shows Parkhai_o LBA and Parkhai_C used with UstIDA showing good fits with local samples for Kamma kit seq using WGS Dante. Only AP Yadav and AP kapu doesn't like Bacho Kiro but all others required some amount of Bacho Kiro. High AASI kits took the Pakhai_o LBA which is  Sarazm & Armenia &WHG heavy sample and others preferred Parkhai_C which is Tepe Hissar & Ganj_derah & Sarazm heavy

Surprisingly the Yadav and Brahmin kits preferred lowest Parkhai and highest % suggesting my kit is closer to these 2 kits but has additional Russia_UstIDA and Parkhai_C.

Adding TTK to the above model actually improves as shown below

The base model suggested by sapphire also mentioned Parkhai based model as follows which shows additional 10% Steppe vs Jarawa sample

also when aDNA guy called ashish published blog at https://a-genetics.blogspot.com/2022/12/steppe-source-in-indians.html ran the qpadm models he found Telugu Brahmins had 10-20% Sarazm like input vs Irulars. 

I am getting similar but more Tepe Hissar and Ganj Derah than that signal and some mixed WHG & Armenian

Change of paternal ydna in Iran over ages

 from https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-025-99743-w

Ancient DNA indicates 3,000 years of genetic continuity in the Northern Iranian Plateau, from the Copper Age to the Sassanid Empire

Summary of the uniparental data. (A) Distribution of the ancient Iranian mtDNA haplogroups; asterisks denote the samples analysed in this study. (B) PCA plot based on mtDNA haplogroup frequencies in modern Iranian and selected ancient Iranian groups. Using the frequencies of 36 haplogroups in modern and ancient Iranian populations, the first two principal components (PCs) capture 22.1% of the total variance (see Supplementary Table S6 for details). To maintain consistency and prevent sampling bias, we selected only those ancient groups that had more than 10 individuals or could be merged geographically and temporally, such as our historical samples. (C) Distribution of the ancient Iranian Y-chromosomal haplogroups (details in Supplementary Table S7).

Shows Presence of H ydna in Chalcolithic and Bronze Age, which disappeared in Iron Age. Today only less than 1% is H in some areas of Iran.

Presence of R2 was big during Neolithic (probably due to some Neolithic areas overrepresented in the aDNA samples ) which lost steam during Chalcolithic and completely gone by the time of Bronze Age. Today R2 is mostly limited to Indian subcontinent. 

Presence of L1 happened during Chalcolithic and Bronze age and extended into IA but lost completely during the IA, Now L1 is also mostly restricted to Indian Subcontinent.

The historical matches during Medieval shows mostly J1 and J2 samples dominate in Iran which caused earlier groups of people of R2 and L1 mostly moved out to Indian subcontinent

Ancient Greek and Italian matches

The Mycenean Era was the time of the Iliad and the Odyssey, and Nestor and his Palace feature prominently in these powerful epics. The Late Helladic II burial of the so-called Griffin Warrior, discovered at Pylos in 2015, yielded hundreds of precious artifacts. Pylos is a name out of time and legend, immortalized by Homer in the Iliad and the Odyssey, as was the name of Nestor, the son of Neleus and Agamemnon’s right-hand man and aged advisor during the war with Troy.
